6. Initial use

Purpose: The appliance is used solely for massaging the human body.
Decide whether you wish to use the massage device with its handle attached or without a handle, using a hand strap. To remove the handle, press hard on the two retention buttons on either side of the handle and pull the handle off the massage head. Insert the plug-in cover into the back of the massage head.
Put your hand under the hand strap. Using the Velcro fastener, adjust the length of the hand strap so that you can hold the massage head in your hand and guide it safely.

7. Usage

If you wish to attach the handle again, first pull off the plug-in cover and reattach the handle until it is heard to engage. The power cable emerges from beneath the handle retainer.
You can massage with or without the massage attachment. Simply choose the massage attachment that you prefer. With M+H intrared heat treatment, any massage attachments will prevent the heat supply of the infrared source. You should therefore only operate the device on ‚M‘ if a massage attachment is fitted.
Make sure that the device is switched off before inserting the power cable. Switch on the device by setting the sliding switch to
‚M‘ (‚Massage only‘) or
‚M+H‘ (‚Massage with infrared heat‘).
Set the required massage speed using the control. Place the device on the part of the body which you wish to massage. You can stand up, sit down or lie down and you can either massage yourself or massage somebody else. Massage intensity can be varied by exerting more or less pressure on the massage device. Never massage a specific part of the body for longer than 3 minutes without changing to another area of the body. After using for a maximum of 20 minutes, switch off the device again, disconnect the plug and let it cool down. Store the device in a dry place.
