Q
How do I know when to replace the pads?
A If the signal is weakening when the batteries are
still OK, it usually indicates that the pads are worn
and need replacing. Check this by inserting new
batteries and/or adjusting the belt to ensure correct
positioning. If the pads are worn, the symbol will
appear on the display. Replacement pads can be
purchased from your nearest stockist,

Careline.

Q
I can feel a tingling in my legs during a session.
What should I do?
A Move the two small pads upward and inward on
your waist (i.e. towards the centre of your body).
Q
My skin is red after a session. Why?
A Some skin redness after a session may occur. It is
partly due to an increase in blood-flow and should
fade after the treatment. It can also occur due to the
pressure of the stretched belt. You should not be
concerned about this, but should only wear the belt
during a session. If it is excessive, you may have the
intensity too high. If the problem persists, you
should stop using the unit.
Q
The stimulation is uncomfortable. How can I
improve this?
A Ensure the pads are correctly positioned and
pressed firmly against your skin. Switch off your
unit and position the belt as described on page 4.
Q
The pads won't stick to the belt even though t h e y
a re fairly new. Why is this?
A Ensure the patterned side of each pad is placed on
the belt. The black side of the pads goes onto your
skin. Press the edges of each pad very firmly onto
the belt before and after each session.
Q
My waist muscles are exercising but not my
stomach muscles. Why?
A
Move the large pad down slightly. If this doesn't
help, move the small pads to a smaller figure
setting.
Q
My stomach muscles are exercising but not
my waist muscles. Why?
A Move the large pad up slightly. If this doesn't help,
move the small pads to a larger figure setting.
Q
Can I use my belt to treat muscles weakened
FLEX
from lack of use due to injury?
A Your belt may additionally be used for the
FLEX
alleviation of or compensation for injury.
Consultation with your doctor is required to
establish a rehabilitation programme with the
unit, which would safely provide improvement to the
strength and tone of the abdominal muscles.

You should not let your unit get wet, but you may
wipe it clean with a lightly dampened cloth. The belt
can be washed, but you must first remove the unit
and pads. Always follow the instructions on the
label when washing the belt.
Never machine wash your belt. Always hand
wash it in lukewarm water. This protects the
internal wiring from damage in the washing
machine.You should take care even when
hand washing and never wring the belt to
remove water.
Do not use any bleach when washing your
belt.
Do not dry clean your belt.
Do not tumble dry your belt. Dry the belt on a
flat surface, but not on anything hot (e.g. a
radiator) as the belt contains plastic parts.
Ensure the belt is completely dry before use.
The belt must not be ironed.
