1. Use this product for its intended use only, as described in this manual. Do not use any attachments not
recommended by Obus Forme.
2. This product is designed for use in a 110V electrical outlet, in Canada and the U.S. only. Using this
product with an electrical outlet of higher or foreign voltage will damage the unit and may cause fire,
shock and/or injury. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
3. Do not operate unit under a blanket or pillow. Excessive heating can occur and cause fire, electric
shock or injury.
4. Always unplug the unit from the electrical outlet immediately after using, before cleaning and before
attaching or removing parts.
5. Do not use, place or store the unit where it can fall or be pulled into a tub or sink. Do not allow
the unit to come into contact with water or any other liquid.
6. Do not reach for the unit if it has fallen into water. Unplug it immediately. Do not operate.
7. Do not open the unit to check for damages.
8. Do not operate the unit if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly or if it
has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Contact Obus Forme for instructions for returning
it for examination.
9. Do not carry this appliance by its supply cord or use the cord as a handle.
10. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
11. Ensure massage head attachments are secured onto unit before use.

over the throat or chest, over or near the ears or groin.

OPERATING YOUR PROFESSIONAL BODY MASSAGER
1. Make sure the unit is set to the OFF position.

to a different set, simply unscrew, counter-clockwise, the set that is on the unit. Screw on
the desired set.
Helpful hint: To further customize your massage, try using a different attachment on each
head of the unit.
3. Plug the unit into a 110-volt household electrical outlet (for use in Canada and U.S. only).
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 a proper outlet.
Do not change the plug in any way.
4. Turn the unit on by sliding the ON/OFF switch to the ON position.
5. Adjust the intensity of the massage by sliding the variable speed control switch upwards
for a higher intensity and downwards for a lower intensity.
6. Lightly apply the massage heads to the area you wish to treat using a slow, continuous motion.
7. Treat area for a short period of time and then move to another area. Never treat the same
area for longer than 3 minutes. Operation of this product for more than 20 minutes is not
recommended and may cause overheating.
8. To reach hard-to-reach areas, extend the arm of the unit by rotating the ring, located at the
top of the arm, to the left. Gently pull the end of the handle and customize the extension
at 1.5" or 3". To secure the length of the arm, simply rotate the ring to the right.
9. Use the front handgrip for a concentrated, steady massage.
10. When treatment is complete, turn the unit off by sliding the ON/OFF switch to the
OFF position. Unplug the power cord and then wrap it up using the cord wrap strap.
