Ensure that the appliance is switched off (function selector switch
lowest position "0") before plugging into the mains. Then plug into an appro-
priate socket (230 V).
Use your thumb to gently push the selector switch
into place and you can feel the massage head vibrate.
The infra-red function can be activated separately or in combination with the
vibration massage function. For infra-red treatment without vibration massage,
push the function selector switch
to switch off vibration and at the same time activate the infra-red source
on the massage head.
For combined vibration massage and infra-red treatment push the function
selector switch towards the massage head to the uppermost position.
• You can give yourself or a partner a massage. Switch the unit on as
described above and apply to the part of body to be massaged. Do not use
pressure; just place it lightly on the body. The massage effect is brought
about by the vibration of the unit alone. Simultaneous use of the infra-red
function improves the effectiveness of the massage. Do not concentrate on
one side of the body for too long; rather change the area of massage fre-
quently.
• Choosing the direction of the massage you can decide on the effect: a mas-
sage toward the heart relaxes, a massage away from the heart stimulates.
• For a full body massage, please refer to "Safety Information".
• Each session should not be more than 10 - 15 minutes. To ensure positive
results, please use the massager regularly.
• The application should feel pleasant. In case you experience pain or find the
massage disagreeable, please interrupt the session and consult your doctor.
• After treatment, switch the massage device off, pull out the mains plug and
let the device cool down.
Switch off the unit by returning the function selector switch
position "0". When you have finished using the unit, unplug it from the mains
outlet.
