Initial Use

Usage

The massage should always feel comfortable. Mild bruising or temporary redness may occur because the device stimulates circulation in the treated area. If excessive skin irritation develops, stop using the device and consult a doctor. Depending on the level of muscle tension, a massage duration of approximately 10 minutes is recommended for the desired area, such as the neck, shoulders, back, arms, buttocks, or legs. Before using the Deep Tissue Massager for the first time, charge it for at least 3.5 hours. Follow these steps:

Remove all packaging materials from the device.
Connect the supplied mains adapter to the Deep Tissue Massager. The adapter connection is located at the bottom of the handle.
Insert the mains adapter into a suitable power socket. The current battery charge level will appear on the battery charge level display.
During charging, the LED corresponding to the current battery level will flash. Once the device is fully charged, all three LEDs will remain illuminated. A fully charged battery provides approximately 5 hours of operation. If the left LED on the battery charge level display starts flashing during use, recharge the device to prevent it from switching off automatically.

Selecting/Changing the Attachment

Choose the appropriate attachment before starting the massage. To change an attachment, follow these steps:

Pull the existing attachment horizontally away from the Deep Tissue Massager.
Insert the desired attachment firmly into the device until it clicks securely into place.

Switching the Device On/Selecting the Vibration Level

Slide the ON/OFF switch on the underside of the handle to the ON position. The LEDs on the battery charge level display will illuminate.
Press the ON/OFF button to start the device. The left LED on the intensity level display will illuminate, and the massage will begin at intensity level 1.
To switch between the five intensity levels, briefly press the ON/OFF button. The available intensity levels are:
- Intensity Level 1: Approximately 1800 rpm / 30 Hz
- Intensity Level 2: Approximately 2100 rpm / 35 Hz
- Intensity Level 3: Approximately 2400 rpm / 40 Hz
- Intensity Level 4: Approximately 2700 rpm / 45 Hz
- Intensity Level 5: Approximately 3000 rpm / 50 Hz
To switch off the device during use, press and hold the ON/OFF button for approximately 2 seconds. Alternatively, pressing the ON/OFF button again while operating at intensity level 5 will switch off the massage function and place the device in standby mode.
After completing the massage, slide the ON/OFF switch on the underside of the handle to the OFF position to switch off the device completely.

Faqs

How do I set up the beurer Deep Tissue Massager MG 99 for the first time?

Unpack all parts and check for visible damage before use, then insert the supplied mains adapter into the socket on the handle and charge the unit for at least 3.5 hours before first use to reach full battery level. Slide the ON/OFF switch on the underside to ON, then press the power button to start at intensity level 1; the LED battery and intensity indicators show status and level on the handle.

Which attachment should I use on the beurer Deep Tissue Massager MG 99 for sore shoulders and how do I change it?

For large muscle groups like shoulders use the ball or flat attachment for broader coverage and the bullet/prong heads for precise trigger-point work; to change, pull the existing head straight off and push the chosen attachment firmly into the fitting until it clicks securely, ensuring the device is switched off before swapping heads to avoid damage.

What should I do if my beurer Deep Tissue Massager MG 99 won’t turn on or the battery LEDs don’t light?

First verify the mains adapter is correctly connected and the unit charged for the recommended time; check the underside ON/OFF switch is set to ON and press the power button—if LEDs still don’t light, try a different mains socket and inspect the charger and cable for damage. If problems persist after these troubleshooting steps, contact Beurer support as the device may need service or warranty repair.

How long can I safely use the beurer Deep Tissue Massager MG 99 in a single session and why does it switch off automatically?

Use the MG 99 on one area for about 10 minutes per application to avoid over-stimulation; the massager includes an automatic 10-minute shutoff to protect the motor and prevent excessive tissue strain, so resume only after a short rest if additional treatment is needed, following recommended session durations for neck, shoulders, back, and legs.

Can I take the beurer Deep Tissue Massager MG 99 on trips and what are the power/compatibility requirements?

The MG 99 is compact and lightweight (about 620 g) and runs on an internal Li‑ion battery with up to roughly 5 hours runtime, making it travel-friendly; it ships with a mains adapter (C-type plug noted in some markets) — verify your region’s plug type and voltage compatibility or use a certified travel adapter/converter to charge safely.

Why is the beurer Deep Tissue Massager MG 99 making unusual noises or feeling weak at higher intensities and how can I optimize performance?

Unusual noises or reduced power can indicate a loose attachment, low battery, or blocked moving parts; ensure the chosen head is fully clicked into place, charge the battery fully, remove debris from the shaft area, and avoid forcing attachments—if vibration issues continue, stop use and contact Beurer, since internal motor faults require professional service.

How do I clean and maintain my beurer Deep Tissue Massager MG 99 to prolong its life?

Unplug and power off the device before cleaning; wipe the housings and attachments with a soft cloth dampened with mild soapy water and dry thoroughly—do not immerse the device or use solvents. Store in a cool, dry place, avoid heavy impacts, and charge the battery at least every few months if unused to help preserve Li‑ion battery health and device longevity.

Is the beurer Deep Tissue Massager MG 99 safe for people with medical conditions and what precautions should be taken?

The MG 99 is a consumer massage device, not a medical device, and should not be used on open wounds, inflamed areas, or over the heart; do not use if you have a pacemaker or certain medical abnormalities—consult your doctor before use if you have health concerns, and follow safety warnings in the manual to prevent complications.
