(f) "UVA radiation" means radiation in the wavelength between 320 and 400 nanometers (one-billionth).
(g) "UVS radiation" means radiation in the wavelength between 260 and 320 nanometers (one-billionth).
(h) "UVC radiation" means ultraviolet C radiation or radiation in the wavelength between 180 and 260 nanometers (one-billionth).
(i) "Consumer informational form" means a preprinted form provided by the tanning facility to the consumer which is completed by the consumer prior to tanning and presented to the tanning facility operator, who then determines the appropriate ultraviolet exposure period for the consumer's current visit and places the form in the consumer's permanent file.

(1) An operational timing device that complies with 21 CFR Part 1040, Section 1040.20 (c)(2), which, when tested, has an error factor less than plus or minus ten percent (10%) of the maximum timer interval for the product.

(3) A transparent cover to prevent contact between the user's body and the source of irradiation.
(4) A handrail and a clear indication of the position the user is to assume prior to operation.
(5) Protective eyewear for each user containing lenses which absorb all ultraviolet A, ultraviolet B and visible light up to 500 nanometers.
(6) A prominently located label stating: "Danger - ultraviolet radiation. Follow Instructions Carefully. Do not enter without protective eyewear."
(c) The tanning facility operator shall monitor the use of the tanning facility to ensure that the interior temperature does not exceed 100 degrees Fahrenheit or thirty-four degrees Centigrade.
(Ord. 457-91. Passed 5-28-91.)
No tanning facility permitholder shall admit a consumer for purposes of tanning unless an operator is present who is at least eighteen years of age and who is adequately trained in the operation of the facility so as to be able to inform and assist the consumer in the proper use of the tanning equipment.
