Electric shock

WARNING
Just like any other electrical appliance, this foot spa must be handled with due care and attention in order to prevent the risk of electric shock. For this reason, the device must only be operated as follows:

• With the mains voltage specified on the device only.
• Do not use the device if damage to the device itself or any of its accessories is evident.
• Never use the appliance during a thunderstorm.

In the event of a defect or malfunction, switch the device off immediately and disconnect it from the power supply. Never pull on the power cable or on the appliance in order to disconnect the plug from the mains outlet. Never hold or carry the device by the power cable. Keep the cables away from hot surfaces. You must never connect the foot spa to the power supply when your feet are already in the water. If the device is damaged, this can lead to life- threatening electric shock. Make sure that the plug and the power cord do not come into contact with water or other liquids. For this reason, the device must be operated as follows:

• only in dry inside rooms (e.g. never in the bathtub or sauna),
• only with dry hands.
  Never immerse the device in water. Never try to retrieve the device if it falls into water. Disconnect the plug immediately from the mains outlet.

Fire hazard

WARNING
There is a risk of fire if the device is used incorrectly or if it is not used according to these instructions for use. For this reason, the massage device must only be operated as follows:

• Never leave the device unsupervised, particularly if children are around.
• Never use the device under covers, such as blankets or pillows.
• Never use the device in the vicinity of petrol or other easily flammable materials.
• Do not place on soft carpeting because the vents may be covered.

Handling

CAUTION

• Switch the device off and disconnect the power supply after every use and before every cleaning.
• Keep the device away from high temperatures.
• Never stand in the foot spa.
• The device must not be connected to the power supply while being filled.
• Always switch the foot spa off and remove the plug from the mains socket before moving it or cleaning it.
• Be aware that some spa products may create a great deal of foam when combined with the bubble massage. For this reason, do not leave the foot spa unsupervised and switch it off immediately if excess foam builds up.
• Warm foot spas with arnica, rosemary or sea salt extracts get the circulation going. Lukewarm foot spas with lavender or thyme have a relaxing effect and are a blessing for exhausted feet.

Proper use

Initial use

• Remove the packaging
• Check the device, power supply and cables for damage.
• Before you plug in the foot spa, fill it up to the fill-level mark (approx 2-3 cm full) with either warm or cold water. The foot rest should, however, be completely covered with water.
• Route the cable safely so that there is no risk of anyone tripping over it.
• Place the foot spa on a firm and level surface.

Use

Make yourself comfortable in a chair and place your feet on the foot rest and apply slight pressure. Never stand up in the foot spa. The rubber feet on the base of the unit prevent it from sliding.

The device has two massage functions:

• Function 1 : bubble massage, infrared light and water temperature regulator
• Function 2: activation of vibration massage

Bubble massage, infrared light and water temperature regulator

• Press the – button to switch on the bubble massage (with infrared light and water temperature regulator).
• Press the – button to switch the bubble massage (with infrared light and water temperature regulator) off again.

These functions are only available together.

Optional vibration massage
While the bubble massage with infrared light and water temperature regulator is running, you have the option to switch on the vibration massage. The vibration massage will only function when the bubble massage with infrared light and water temperature regulator is switched on. It cannot be used separately.

• Press the – button to activate the vibration massage.
• Press the button to switch the vibration massage off again.

Massage roller
You can experience a special massage effect by moving your feet back and forth on the 2 massage rollers integrated into the bottom of the foot spa. The massage rollers can optionally be removed by pulling them firmly upwards. When installing the rollers, make sure that the roller fixing points downwards, as shown in the illustration.

Removable attachments
Place the chosen attachment onto the fixture provided. The brush attachment can be used to stimulate the reflex zones in the soles of your feet. The massage attachment provides a soothing massage for your feet and promotes circulation. The corn and callus remover is used to remove dead skin cells and calluses.

Magnetic field and infrared light
The foot spa features 16 magnets and 4 infrared light dots which are integrated into the foot tub. They help to boost circulation and stimulate reflexology points.

Removable aroma filter
The removable aroma filter allows you to easily add bath additives such as bath crystals, bath salts etc. To do this, remove the filter cover [11] from the device by pulling it upwards. Remove the aroma filter [12]. Add bath products up to the level of the mark on the inside of the filter/underneath the first line of holes. Now attach the filter underneath the filter cover. When doing so, note the arrow marks on the filter and foot spa; these indicate the correct position of the filter. The two arrows must point to each other. Reattach the filter cover. The filter can be easily removed and cleaned after use. Rinse the filter with clean water. Please observe the fill-level mark on the filter and do not fill the filter above this mark. Be aware that some spa products may create a great deal of foam when combined with the bubble massage. For this reason, do not leave the foot spa unsupervised and switch it off immediately if excess foam builds up.

Note
Massaging of a specific point on the sole of the foot may influence the corresponding organ of the body. However, we recommend studying relevant literature and asking your doctor before using point reflex zone massage to achieve the desired effect. After use, pour the water out over the narrow side of the foot spa.

Cleaning and storage

After use, rinse the unit with tap water. The foot spa can be cleaned with a mild, non-foaming household cleaner, e.g. neutral vinegar. To dry out the air line after cleaning, switch on the bubble setting for approximately 10 seconds. Wipe away any drops that may leak with a cloth.

Note

• Do not allow water to penetrate the interior of the foot spa.
• Store the foot spa in its original packaging in a dry area.
• Do not leave it open for an extended period.

Disposal

For environmental reasons, do not dispose of the device in the household waste at the end of its useful life. Dispose of the unit at a suitable local collection or recycling point. Dispose of the device in accordance with EC Directive – WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment). If you have any questions, please contact the local authorities responsible for waste disposal.
