Charging the battery

Fully charge the battery before using it for the first time. The charging time is 3.5 hours. With a fully charged battery, the device can be used for approx. 3.5 to 5 hours. To charge, connect the supplied USB cable to the device connector 6 and the supplied USB charge adapter. If the connection is correct (charging process), the LED ring 4 pulsates. The more closed the LED ring, the higher the charge level of the battery:

NOTES

• The unit cannot be used during the charging process!
• Do not use any cable other than the one supplied for charging! If you need a replacement, contact the customer service.

Use

1. Select one of the three attachments (multidirectional massage roller, natural bristle silicone brush, silicone brush) and press the attachment firmly against the attachment plate on the appliance.
2. Switch on the unit by pressing the function button 2. The device starts to work at low intensity, which is accompanied by the lighting up of half the LED ring 4. If you press function key 2 again, the device switches to high intensity and the full LED ring 4 lights up.
3. You can perform the massage on yourself or on a partner. Place the device on the area of the body to be massaged. Depending on how you feel, you can apply no pressure or light pressure. You can roll along different parts of the body, see „Application examples“.
4. By pressing button 3 you can change the massage direction.
5. When massaging, do not concentrate on the same part of the body for too long (max. 1 minute), but change the massage area more frequently during the application.
6. An application should not last longer than 15 minutes (after this time the device will automatically switch-off). Use the device regularly so that the positive effect will appear.
7. If you want to switch off the unit manually, press the function button 2 again when unit is in high intensity mode.

Application examples

NOTES

• If you find direct application to the skin uncomfortable, you can also place a towel between the skin surface and the device during application.
• Application e.g. after bathing increases the circulation-promoting massage effect, as the body is already warm.

Troubleshooting

If the unit cannot be switched on, check the battery charge level (press and hold function key 2 for 3 seconds). Charge the battery if necessary. If you notice any abnormal behaviour, smells or if the unit still does not work, stop using it and contact the service centre.

Cleaning and maintenance

• For cleaning, make sure that the charging cable is not connected and let the unit cool down for at least 10 minutes after use.
• The unit should be cleaned with a soft, slightly damp cloth, possibly with a mild soap solution.
• Never use aggressive cleaning agents, thinners, petrol, strong brushes or similar. The surface of the unit is sensitive.
• The massage rollers 5 can be pulled off and thus cleaned separately, e.g. with water. Then put the cleaned massage rollers back on.
• Only use the unit again when it is completely dry and make sure that no moisture can get into the unit!
• It is best to store the unit in its original packaging and keep it in a clean and dry place out of direct sunlight.
