7. Initial use
Note
Before using the Deep Tissue Massager for the first time, charge it first for
a minimum of 3 ½
hours. To do so, proceed as follows:
- 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.
- Then insert the mains adapter into a suitable socket.
Whilst the device is charging, all 5 LEDs flash from right to left. As soon as the Deep Tissue Massager is fully charged, all 5 LEDs will light up permanently. The battery will last for approx. 3 hours of operation when fully charged. Charge the Deep Tissue Massager again as soon as only one red LED flashes when operating the device.
8. Using the device
8.1 Notes on use
Note
The massage treatment must feel pleasant at all times. A slight haematoma may
well occur – this
is a positive therapeutic effect as the use of the Deep Tissue Massager can
selectively encourage
your blood flow. In isolated cases, areas of redness may also occur on the
skin. If you experience
excessive skin irritation, stop using the Deep Tissue Massager and consult a
doctor. Depending
on how tense/tight your muscles are, we recommend using the device for approx.
10-15 minutes
on the area you wish to treat (legs, shoulders, arms and back).
8.2 Selecting/changing the attachment
Before starting the massage, you first need to choose the right attachment.
Section “6.2 Attachments” contains a list of all the attachments and what they
are best suited for.
To change an attachment, proceed as follows:
8.3 Switching the device on/selecting the vibration level
Note
The Deep Tissue Massager comes with an automatic switch-off function. This
means that the
Deep Tissue Massager automatically switches off after a period of use of 15
minutes.
- Slide the ON/OFF switch on the bottom of the handle to the “ON” position.
- To now switch on the Deep Tissue Massager, press and hold the ON/OFF button for 2 seconds. The battery state indicator begins to light up and the massage starts.
- To switch between the four vibration settings, briefly press the ON/OFF button. If the device is in the fourth vibration setting and you press the ON/OFF button again, the Deep Tissue Massager will switch off. You can also switch off the Deep Tissue Massager directly whilst it is in use by pressing and holding the ON/OFF button for 2 seconds. The battery state indicator goes out and the massage stops.
- Once the treatment is complete, slide the ON/OFF switch on the bottom of the handle to the “OFF” position.
8.4 Examples of use

Shoulders, arms and back
