Instructions for Use

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. DO NOT change the plugin anyway.

• The Compact Percussion Massager is powered by and comes equipped with a UL-approved cord. Always make sure the unit is set to the “OFF” position before inserting the plug into a 120-volt household electrical outlet.

• To turn the unit on, simply slide the ON/OFF switch, located along the top of the unit’s handle, up to the first position for a low-intensity massage. To increase the massage intensity, slide the selector switch up to the next setting (See Page 7). To turn the unit off, slide the selector switch down to the “OFF” position.

• Gently apply massager heads lightly to the area you wish to treat.

• Move the unit slowly, holding on to the targeted area. Treat the area for a short period of time and move to another area. Never treat the same spot longer than 3  minutes.
  CAUTION: As stated in the “IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS” section of this manual, never use this appliance on or near eyes or other highly sensitive areas.

• Operation of longer than 20 minutes is not recommended and may cause overheating.

• When treatment is completed, turn the unit off, unplug the power supply and store it properly in a cool dry place.
