Do not use the RecoveryPulse Arm Vibration Device or charger on wet surfaces, and do not expose the charger to moisture, rain, or snow. Do not use the RecoveryPulse Arm Vibration Device or its compatible charger in the presence of explosive atmospheres (gaseous fumes, dust, or flammable materials). Sparks may be generated, possibly causing a fire.
UNPLUGGING THE CHARGER. Pull the plug, not the cord, to reduce the risk of damage to the electrical plug and cord. Never carry the charger by its cord. Keep the cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges. Do not use or charge with a damaged cord. Do not stretch the charger cord or place the cord under strain. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces. Do not handle the charger, including the charger terminals, or RecoveryPulse Arm Vibration Device with wet hands. Always unplug this appliance from the electrical outlet immediately after using and before cleaning.
THERABODY CHARGING CABLE CARE. Unplug the adapter when not in use. Store cord to ensure it is not stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress. Replace a damaged charger. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces. Never operate this appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug if it is not working properly, if it has been dropped or damaged, or dropped into water. For longterm storage, store with a fully charged battery.
DO NOT OPERATE UNDER BLANKET AND PILLOW. Excessive heating can occur and cause fire, electric shock, or injury.
DISPOSING OF BATTERIES. Always dispose of RecoveryPulse Arm Vibration Device batteries according to federal, state, and local regulations. Contact a recycling agency in your area for recycling locations. Even discharged batteries contain some energy. Before disposing of, use electrical tape to cover the RecoveryPulse Arm Vibration Device’s 16V connector/terminals to prevent the battery from shorting, which could cause a fire or explosion.
STORING THE RecoveryPulse Arm Vibration Device, BATTERY, AND CHARGING CABLE. Store in a cool, dry place. Only charge the RecoveryPulse Arm Vibration Device when the ambient temperature is between 0°C/32°F and 40°C/104°F. Do not store the RecoveryPulse Arm Vibration Device, batteries, or charger where temperatures may exceed 40°C/104°F, such as in direct sunlight, in a vehicle, or in a metal building during the summer.
TIME IN USE. It is recommended not to exceed one hour of vibration device usage (one full battery charge).
SLEEVE CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS. Remove the battery pack before washing the sleeve. The battery pack is not machine washable. Place the sleeve in the washing bag provided with the product for each wash. The sleeve is machine washable at low temperature (below 30C). Only use regular laundry detergent to wash the sleeve. Do not use bleach. The sleeve is not machine dryable. Do not use the product if a component seems out of place or damaged after washing the sleeve. Unless worn during a workout, wash the sleeve after 5-10 hours of use. The garment’s material is breathable and contains fibers to help minimize odor. Minimizing the frequency of washes increases the sleeve’s life.
SLEEVE CARE. Do not place any sticky material (like adhesive tape) on the sleeve, as it will damage the fabric. Do not cut or alter the fabric, as electronic components inside may be compromised. If the sleeve is tight upon usage (Arm can’t bend comfortably or results in pain), stop using the sleeve.
