CAUTIONS
• This massager should not be used in the following cases unless directed by a
physician: Tuberculosis, benign and malignant tumors, hemorrhages, inflamma-
tions of the skin, phlebitis and thrombosis, open and fresh wounds, bruises,
broken skin or varicose veins, or undetermined calf pain.
• Consult your physician, should you have any questions regarding massager's
therapeutic use.
• In case of pregnancy, diabetes, or illness, consult your physician before using massager.
• Do not use on any unexplained pain before consulting your physician.
• Massage should be pleasant and comfortable. Should pain or discomfort result,
discontinue use and consult your physician.
• Do not fall asleep while using this massager.
• Keep away from children. This unit is not a toy. Children should not use it or play with it.
• When heat is applied, do not use directly on skin. Use clothing over skin or place a
towel between the massager and the skin surface and check frequently during use.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
1) Your massager is designed for household use, and is virtually maintenance-
free. No lubrication is needed. To clean the head and body of the massager, use
a cloth only. Do not use any strong chemical cleaners.
2) If the cord or massager is damaged or does not operate properly, return it to
an authorized service center. Any required servicing should be performed by a
Conair authorized service center.
3) Never allow the power supply cord to be excessively pulled or twisted. Inspect
the cord frequently for damage. Stop use immediately if damage is visible, or if
unit stops or operates intermittently. Never wrap the cord around the appliance.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
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.
STORAGE
When not in use, your massager should be disconnected, allowed to cool and
stored in a safe, dry location, out of reach of children.
RECOMMENDED MASSAGING TIMES
• Generally, massage should last 10–20 minutes on any muscle of the body.
Treatment may be applied once or twice daily.
• As a person’s metabolism varies, so does his or her response to massage,
and you will soon adjust the time to suit your particular needs and personal
comfort. If you have any doubts regarding treatment, we recommend you
consult your physician.
HOW TO USE
1) Make sure the switch is in the off position and hold the main body firmly before
plugging the unit into power source. Plug the unit in and turn the switch on.
2) Massage tight and stiff muscle areas using any of the following setting
combinations: Heat, Vibration, Heat/Low Vibration or Heat /High Vibration setting.
Apply a little pressure at first.
3) Next, after having relaxed the tight spots, apply more pressure and massage
previously treated areas. Never press too hard or bend head excessively.
4) Always finish with a soft massage with low pressure.

SOME SPECIFIC MASSAGE APPLICATIONS

wonderfully soothing and relaxing effect.

SHOULDERS
Temporarily relieve minor muscle tension by lightly massaging the shoulders
outward from the base of the neck for 4–5 minutes.
