INITIAL USE

USAGE
The massage must always feel comfortable. The appearance of light haematoma is a positi-ve eff ect of treatment and quite likely, as circulation can be promoted in a targeted way by applying the device. Isolated erythema may also occur. If you develop excessive skin irritation, discontinue the application of the device and consult a doctor. Depending on the extent of the muscle tension, an application duration of approx. 10 minutes is recommended for the desired area (neck, shoulder, back, arms, buttocks and legs).
Before using the Deep Tissue Massager for the first time, charge it first for a minimum of 3.5 hours. To do so, proceed as follows:

1. Remove all packaging material from the device.
2. Connect the supplied mains adapter to the Deep Tissue Massager. The connection for the mains adapter is located on the bottom of the handle of the Deep Tissue Massager A.
3. Then insert the mains adapter into a suitable socket. The current battery charge level is dis-played on the battery charge level display 3 .
4. The LED for the relevant current battery charge level flashes during the charging process. As soon as the Deep Tissue Massager is fully charged, all 3 LEDs will light up permanently. The battery will last for approx. 5 hours of operation when fully charged. If, during operation, the left LED of the battery charge level display 3 starts to flash, the device must be charged, as otherwise it will automatically switch off.

Selecting/changing the attachment
Choose the suitable attachment before you begin massaging. To change an attachment, proceed as follows:

1. Pull the existing attachment horizontally off the Deep Tissue Massager B.
2. Slide your desired attachment firmly into the Deep Tissue Massager until you feel it click se- curely into place C.

1. Slide the ON/OFF switch 6 on the underside of the handle 4 to the “ON“ position. The LEDs on the battery charge level display 3 will begin to light up.
2. Press the ON/OFF button 2 to switch the device on. The left LED of the intensity level display 1 starts to light up. The massage starts at intensity level 1.
3. To change between the fi ve intensity levels, briefl y press the ON/OFF button 2:
   • Intensity level 1: approx. 1800 rpm/30 Hz
   • Intensity level 2: approx. 2100 rpm/35 Hz
   • Intensity level 3: approx. 2400 rpm/40 Hz
   • Intensity level 4: approx. 2700 rpm/45 Hz
   • Intensity level 5: approx. 3000 rpm/50 Hz
4. You can switch oÍ the device at any time during use by pressing and holding the ON/OFF button (approx. 2 seconds). If you press the ON/OFF button 2 again on the fifth intensity level, the device will switch oÍ. The device is in standby operation.
5. Slide the ON/OFF switch 6 on the underside of the handle 4 to the „OFF“ position after application. The device is completely switched oÍ.
