To operate the foot massager with the supplied mains adapter, you need to connect the mains adapter to the foot massager first. Proceed as follows:

1. Remove all packaging material.

4. Insert the mains adapter into a suitable socket.

USE

• Only use the foot massager when you are sitting down. Never use the foot massager when standing up.
• Use the massager for a maximum of 15 minutes. Longer massages can lead to overstimulation of the muscles, creating tension instead of aiding relaxation.

To start foot stimulation, proceed as follows:

Step 1: Place the Foot Massager on the Floor 

Place the foot massager on an even, hard surface. Position a chair in front of the foot massager so that you can reach the device comfortably with your feet when sitting in the chair.

Step 2: Place Your Feet in the Foot Massager

You can use the foot massager either barefoot or with socks. Slip your feet into the foot massager. Ensure that the soles of your feet are placed on the massage heads.

Step 3: Switch On the Foot Massager

Press the ON/OFF button to switch the foot massager on. The LED on the ON/OFF button begins to light up green. The foot massager starts in mode 1 and at the lowest intensity.

Step 4: Set the Mode

The foot massager has three different massage modes. Select your desired mode using the mode button.

• Mode 1: Green LED = Only air pressure.
• Mode 2: Blue LED = Massage without air pressure.
• Mode 3: Red LED = Massage with air pressure.

Step 5: Set the Intensity

For the air pressure massage, the foot massager has three intensity levels (low, medium, high). Select your desired intensity level using the intensity button.

• Green LED: Low intensity.
• Blue LED: Medium intensity.
• Red LED: High intensity.

Step 6: Switch the Heat On/Off

The foot massager has an optional heat function. You can warm your feet during the massage by using the heat function. To switch on the heat function, press the heat button during the massage. The LED on the heat button begins to light up red. Press the heat button again to switch off the heat function. The LED on the heat button goes out.

Step 7: Stop the Foot Massage

Step 8: Switch Off the Foot Massager

Cleaning the Foot Massager

• Unplug the foot massager each time before cleaning.
• Clean the foot massager using only the methods specified. Under no circumstances may liquid enter the foot massager or the accessories.
• Clean the foot massager with a slightly damp cloth. If it is very dirty, you can also moisten the cloth with a mild soapy solution.

Cleaning the Covers

The covers of the massage rollers can be washed by hand. Proceed as follows:

1. To remove the covers from the foot massager, undo the hook-and-loop fasteners of the covers.
2. Wash the covers by hand.
3. Allow the covers to dry. Only insert the covers into the foot massager again when they are completely dry.

Storage

If you do not plan to use the foot massager for a long period of time, we recommend that you store it in the original packaging in a dry environment, ensuring it is not weighed down by additional items. Store the foot massager away from children and pets. Do not place any objects on the foot massager.
