your snoring. Once the desired results are achieved, it is recommended to have a
once a week regular maintenance regime. Snoozeal can be used long term. This is
comparable to maintaining your physical fitness by undertaking regular exercise.
You are recommended to replace the Mouthpiece aer three months of first use.

time, you must charge the battery
for at least 2 hours. The Control Unit

Control Unit. To charge the Control
Unit, use the USB Cable provided
and connect the Control Unit jack into a USB power adapter.
During charging, the Snoozeal logo will blink.
