Operation
Caution: Never use the heat feature without the proper attachment.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician
to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
1. This unit 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 120V electrical outlet.
2. Massage: To turn the unit on, slide the black ON/OFF switch,
located along the top of the unit’s handle, up. Slide the switch
up one position for the low-intensity setting and up two positions for the high-intensity setting. To turn the unit off, slide
the switch to the OFF position.
3. Massage with Thermal Heat: Locate the two red (heat)
attachments. Attach to the massage heads by turning clockwise to secure. Slide the red HEAT button up for heat. Allow
a few minutes for heat to fully activate. To turn the heat off,
slide the switch to the OFF position.

Operation
Note: The heat option only works while a massage feature is
selected. To eliminate the risk of being burned, never use the heat
function without the attachments. Do not use the thermal heat
continuously for more than 15 minutes. Do not use the thermal
heat if you have sensitive skin, poor circulation, discolored areas,
swelling, burns, inflammation or where skin eruptions or sores are
present. Heat should be pleasant and comfortable. Should pain or
discomfort result, discontinue use and consult your physician.
4. Apply massager head lightly to the area you wish to treat.
5. Move the unit slowly, remaining in 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.
6. Operation of longer than 15 minutes is not recommended
and may cause overheating.
7. When treatment is complete, turn the unit to the OFF position,
allow to cool, unplug the power supply and store properly in a
dry place.

Changing Attachments
Your massager comes equipped with five custom massage head
attachments. Each set is a different firmness:
Black – Soft
Dark Gray – Medium hardness
Light Gray – Firm
Red – Heat
Blue – Gel
To change to a different set, simply twist off (counterclockwise)
the set that is attached to the unit and twist on (clockwise) the
desired set.

Maintenance
To Clean
Be sure to unplug the unit and allow it to cool before cleaning. Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe. Never allow water or any liquids to come into contact with the handle. Periodically straighten the cord if it becomes twisted.
To Store
Unplug the appliance from the outlet and allow it to cool before storing in its box or in a clean, dry place. Coil the cord and secure it with the included fastener. Do not hang the unit by the power cord.
