Dual Max Handheld Massager - Parts and Features

Instructions for Use

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 120-volt electrical outlet.
2. Massage: To activate Massage function, slide the bottom switch to "LO" or "HI".
3. Massage + Heat: Once Massage function is on, slide the top switch to "HEAT ON" to activate Heat.

NOTE: The Heat function can only be activated when the Massage function is in use.

NOTE: When the Heat function is turned on, heat will be activated on both sides of the massager.

NOTE: Only the metal Thermal Heat massage attachment should be used when the Heat function has been activated.

Please Note: The heat option will only work while a massage feature is selected.

NOTE: To eliminate the risk of being burned, never use the thermal heat function without the metal attachment. Do not use the heat continuously for more than 15 minutes. Do not use the heat if you have sensitive skin, poor circulation, discolored areas, swelling, burned or inflamed skin, 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. Adjustable Handle: This unit has an adjustable handle with a swivel head to allow the massager to hit hard-to-reach areas. To adjust, simply turn the handle clockwise until the desired position is reached. To return the handle to its original position, turn the handle counter-clockwise.
5. Apply massager head lightly to the area you wish to massage.
6. Move the unit slowly, holding on the targeted area. Massage the area for a short period of time and move to another area. NEVER massage the same spot longer than 3 minutes. CAUTION - as stated in the"IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS" section of this manual, NEVER use this appliance on or near eyes or other highly sensitive areas.
