Getting to know your appliance

General information
Our feet play a very important role throughout our lives as they have to bear our full weight.
Each foot has 26 bones, 22 joints, and 107 ligaments and they all need care. The choice of a Beurer foot bubble bath is a step in the right direction. The gentle vibration massage will relax tense muscles and after just a few minutes you will feel more relaxed and stress-free. This effect will be intensified by the bubble bath.
A tip: adding arnica, rosemary, or sea salt extracts to warm foot bath water will stimulate the circulation.
The addition of lavender or thyme to lukewarm footbath water will bring relief to tired feet.
This foot spa is equipped with:

• footrest with massage nodules,
• pedicure attachment,
• 3 functions: Vibration massage, bubble massage and maintains water temperature.

• Before you plug in the foot bath, fill it up to the fill-level mark (approx 6 cm full) with either warm or cold water. The footrest should, however, be completely covered with water.

• Route the cable safely so that there is no risk of anyone tripping over it.

• Place the footbath on a firm and level surface.
