2. Safety with Silk’n Lipo
With Silk’n safety comes rst. Silk’n Lipo has these safety features:
UProximity sensor: The device works only when it is on, and the
treatment unit is in good contact with your skin .
UAuto shut-down: Although you can stop a treatment whenever
you wish, the device shuts down after a minute or so, when there
is no contact with the skin (the operating light will be constant
green). It also shuts down automatically after 15 minutes of
continuous use.
3. Get to know Silk’n Lipo
Silk’n Lipo is a system to help you reduce fat in specic areas, exercise your
muscles and tone specic parts of your body without physical eort, and
in the comfort of your home.
By placing the treatment unit1on target areas such as the upper arms,
abdomen, buttocks or thighs, fat can be broken down and removed
specically from that area. Silk’n Lipo is not intended for overall fat
reduction or weight loss, and cannot replace diet or exercise. It can also
help you shape individual areas that do not respond to diet or exercise.
Silk’n Lipo is a powerful electrical device and should be used with special
attention to safety. Before use, it is important that you read and
understand the instructions on how to use the device including
after-use procedures, and follow them strictly. We recommend
you familiarise yourself with the instructions in this manual before each
treatment.

3.2 Device description
Silk’n Lipo is a device for home use that utilizes Low Level LaserTechnology
(LLLT) and Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS). Together these energies
help increase muscle tone and reduce fatty acids and deposits to enhance
body toning and reshaping.
Silk’n Lipo includes a selection of belts suited to the part of the body you
wish to treat. Each treatment unit contains laser diodes and electrodes
that activate the EMS. Each treatment unit is attached to the belt and then
placed on the part of the body you wish to tone and reshape. Silk’n Lipo
uses integrated rechargeable batteries so that each treatment unit can be
charged easily before each use.
Refer to the diagram at the front of the manual to see the location of each
feature.

any medical conditions or diseases. Do not use for any purpose other than
as described in this manual.

5. Next, fold each side of the belt inwards so that you see the black
Velcro pads.
6. Slide each end of the belt into the connectors and then fold
backwards, so that the Velcro pad sticks to the belt. Your belt will
now look like this.
7. Of course, to use Silk’n Lipo you will need to disconnect one side,
place the belt on your body and then reconnect the side you
disconnected!
aNote that you can only use the device when:
ythe treatment unit is charged.
yyou have placed a wet electrode pad on each treatment
unit (see section“4.4 Wetting the electrode pads”).

4.3 Energy levels
Silk’n Lipo has multiple levels of Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS). This
gives you excellent control of the intensity of muscle stimulation you wish
to use for each part of the body you treat. What's more, you can change
levels as often as you like during a treatment.
UTo increase the EMS level: Short press the + button as many
times as you need to set to the EMS level that is comfortable for
you. You will see that the operating light blinks more quickly as
you increase the EMS level.
UTo reduce the EMS level: Short press the - button as many times
as you need (see section “4.2 Controls and settings”).
UTo set the EMS level back to zero:Long press the - button.
aYou can only change EMS levels when the treatment unit is in good
contact with your skin. When there is no contact with the skin, the EMS
drops to zero.

4.4 Wetting the electrode pads
The electrode pads are required for the EMS to work, and they must be
wet before you start your treatment.
1. Wet each electrode pad with a wet cloth or with wet ngers.
2. Then place the wet electrode pad onto the back of each
treatment unit. Make sure that it ts rmly around the center
rectangle. You might need to manipulate it slightly, so that the
electrode pad lies at on top of the treatment unit.
aIt is important that you only wet the electrode pad, and not the whole
treatment unit.
4.5 Device charging
Charge each treatment unit before rst use. The initial charge should
take around 6 hours. Subsequent charges should take around 3 hours.We
recommend you recharge the device before each treatment.
1. Remove the electrode pads before placing the treatment units
in the stand/charging cradle.
2. Connect the empty stand/charging cradle to the electricity
supply. The 2 charging indicator lights will be constant green.

3. Place each treatment unit in the cradle so that it sits in the
designated grooves.
yWhen the treatment unit is charging, the orange battery/
error indicator light on the treatment unit will ash on
and o.
yWhen fully charged the battery/error indicator light (left)
will go o, and the green operating light (middle) will be
constant green.
4. Once charged, disconnect the stand/charging cradle from the
electricity supply.
5. Treatment plan
CFor use on clean, healthy skin (see section “1. Warnings &
contraindications”).
UTreat the target area for 15 minutes per treatment session.
UFor larger parts of the body, like the stomach or buttocks, you may
wish to move the treatment unit to an adjacent part of the target
area, and use for another 15 minutes. You may keep doing this until
you have covered the target area.
UTry to avoid gaps and overlaps.
UNever use Silk’n Lipo on exactly the same spot during a treatment
session.
UFor daily use, but no more than 3 times a week on each specic
target area. Continue until you get the results you want.

6. What to expect with Silk’n Lipo
If you follow the instructions fully and pay attention to all warnings
and contraindications, complications and side eects are uncommon.
However every energy-based device, including those designed for home
use, involves some degree of risk. Therefore it is important that you
understand and accept the risks and complications that may occur.
Skin redness
You may nd some skin redness in the treated area which should disappear
after the treatment.
Muscle pain
As with all exercise, some muscle soreness may occur after a treatment but it
should go away after a day or two. If this happens, use a low EMS level for a
few treatment sessions until the soreness has gone.
Skin irritation
Although very rare, it is possible to have a prolonged reddening of the skin,
or the appearance of acne. Stop use immediately, and only treat that specic
area when the skin irritation has gone.

ENEN
18
Headache
Equally rare, is the possibility that you might feel light-headed when you start
using the device. If this happens, sit down during the treatment, or stop using
the device until you feel OK.
Allergic reaction
If you have an allergic reaction to the device or its accessories, stop using the
device.
aStop use immediately if any of these eects are more severe.
aSee your doctor if the eects do not go away within 2 to 3 days.
7. Get started!
Treating with Silk’n Lipo is easy. Just follow these steps for each part of the
body you wish to treat.
1. Use on clean, healthy skin (see section “1. Warnings &
contraindications”).
2. Check that the batteries are well charged before use. If the battery/
error light is orange and blinks slowly, this indicates that the battery
is low.
3. Before each treatment, wet the electrode pad with a wet cloth
or with wet ngers, and place them on each treatment unit (see
section “4.4 Wetting the electrode pads”). Next, connect one or
more treatment units to the belt (see section“4.1 Connecting the
dierent parts”).
4. Disconnect one of the connectors on one side, and then place the
belt around the area you wish to treat. Then reconnect the side you
just disconnected.
5. Adjust the tightness of the belt so that the treatment unit is in
good contact with your skin, and that the belt is rm and well
secured to your body.
aIf the belt is not tight against your skin, the EMS energy may disconnect.
If that happens, tighten the belt and press the + button to reselect the
EMS energy level required.
