INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR FACIAL SAUNA SYSTEM
Before beginning, cleanse your face, following your daily care routine.
Lightly pat you skin dry before turning on the Facial Sauna.
USING YOUR FACIAL STEAMING UNIT
- Your Facial Sauna includes a detachable facial cone.
- To detach facial cone, turn it counterclockwise and lift it away from water reservoir.
- Using a measuring cup, fill the reservoir with cool or warm distilled water up to the MAX fill line. Plug unit into a 120 volt AC household outlet. (See Figure 1.)
- Place facial cone over unit. Lock by aligning bumps on facial cone with slots on water reservoir and turn clockwise. (See Figure 2.)
- Press ON/OFF button to turn unit on.
- When the power is on, the ready indicator light will flash for 3 minutes as the water is preheating.
- When steam starts to come out, you may use the Facial Sauna.
- Normally, treatment should not last longer than 10–15 minutes. Shut off and unplug the unit immediately.
NOTE: One fill provides between 10 and 20 minutes of soothing mist. If the Facial Sauna should run out of water, shut off immediately, unplug unit, refill with distilled water, then begin your facial again.
- Use your Facial Sauna to cleanse and hydrate you skin.
- Allow approximately 3 to 4 minutes for steam mist to develop, then place your face in a comfortable position close to, but not touching the rim of the facial mask/cone. To avoid burning, do not pick up the unit while water is hot, because water will spill out.
- If more steam is desired, place a towel over your head so that it covers the mask/cone and sides of the steamer.
- Close your eyes and relax as the soothing mist begins its deep cleansing action.
- Remove your face occasionally and blot with a cool, damp towel. Steam for a minimum of 5 minutes, but no longer than 30 minutes.
- The unit will automatically shut off after 20 minutes and the red indicator light will turn off.
- Immediately after steaming, rinse your face with cool water.
SPECIAL PAMPERING TIPS FOR DELICATE AREAS
THE EYE AREA
Give special care to the eye area during your personal facial by lightly massaging additional moisturizer or eye cream on eyelids and under your eyes before you begin.
THE NECK AND THROAT
- Apply your favorite moisturizer to your entire face.
- Mist your face for only 5 minutes, following Instructions for Using Your Facial Sauna System.
- Tilt your head backward, so your throat is approximately 2 inches from the facial mask/cone.
- Mist your throat for 2 minutes. For best results, accelerate the moisturizing process by gently turning neck from side to side.
SPECIAL USES
Consult your physician or dermatologist for instructions on how to best use the Facial Sauna System for your specific condition.
USER-MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Caring for Your Facial Sauna After completing your facial:
- Always turn off and unplug your Facial Sauna from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
- Let cool, then empty excess water and wipe dry the interior of the facial mask/cone and rim around the opening.
- Wipe the base with a clean, damp cloth, then polish lightly with a dry one. NEVER IMMERSE THE FACIAL SAUNA IN WATER.
- Do not attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Return it to our Service Center with sales receipt.
- Allow attachments to air-dry throughly before reusing. Clean the unit with a damp cloth only. Do not immerse in water.
CAUTION
Never allow the power supply cord to be pulled, twisted or severely bent.
Never wrap the cord tightly around the unit. Damage will occur at the high
flex point of entry into the unit, causing it to rupture and short circuit.
Inspect the cord frequently for damage. Stop use immediately if the damage is
visible or unit stops or operates intermittently.
If cord or unit is damaged or does not operate properly, return it for repair
to an authorized Conair Service Center only. No repairs should be attempted by
the consumer.
The Facial Sauna System is for household use only.
STORAGE – Important
When not in use, your unit should be disconnected and stored in a safe, dry
location, out of reach of children. Do not wrap line cord around unit. Allow
the cord to hang or lie loose and straight at the point of entry into the
unit.
WARNING:
IF YOU THINK THE POWER IS OFF WHEN THE SWITCH IS OFF, YOU’RE WRONG.
KEEP AWAY FROM WATER
Everyone knows that electricity and water are a dangerous combination. But did
you know that an electrical appliance is still electrically live even if the
switch is off? If the plug is in, the power is on. So when you are not using
your appliances, keep them unplugged.
ALWAYS UNPLUG SMALL APPLIANCES
