  If the temperature becomes too high, the power will be turned off for safety. (When this happens, the electrode head flashes and beeps five times)
  If this happens let the device rest for about 30 minutes.

• Motion sensor
  The motion sensor detects the movement of the device and pauses output for safety reasons when the electrode head has been used on the same area continuously.
  When the movement of the device slows, the motion sensor may reduce the level of warmth.

Auto Power Off
The device will automatically switch off approximately six minutes after it has been turned on (two short beeps).
Timer
The treatment duration on the entire face is about six minutes. The device will make one long beep after three minutes as an alert.
Charging Guide Display
When you turn the power on, the color of the lamp on the Power Button (either white or red) will indicate the remaining battery level. If the lamp lights red, recharge the battery before using the device again. The remaining battery level display will differ according to the condition of the battery and the usage environment.

Before Use
