The LightWorks Model LW2 Manual

6. 

The unit can be left in AUTO or a specific Mode can 

be selected. 
a. In AUTO the unit will operate on the selected side 

of the Hand Paddle for 24 minutes—3 minutes 

on each of the 8 Modes. The unit sounds a ‘beep’ 

after each 3 minute Mode has completed. 

b. 

Manual Option: Choose a specific Mode by 

pushing the ON/OFF/MODE button briefly. A 

GREEN light indicates which Mode is selected 

and that Mode will operate for 20 minutes. 

c. To return to the AUTO Option continue pressing 

the ON/OFF/MODE button until the ORANGE light comes on. See ‘Output of 

Modes’ on page 7 for the frequency of each Mode. 

7. The LED lights on the Hand Paddle should be placed directly on or very close to the 

skin. 

Clothing will block the light.

8. 

When any of the timed cycles finish, the unit will beep. To continue with another 

cycle, push the ON/OFF/MODE button within 20 seconds of the beep. The unit 

turns itself off if the ON/OFF/MODE button is not pushed within this time.

9. To turn the unit off before the end of a cycle, hold the ON/OFF/MODE button down 

for a full two seconds.

10. 

Unplug the Wall Adaptor

 when not in use.

Note: With the unit off, when unplugging the Wall Adaptor or the LightWorks Cord, 

the lights on the Hand Paddle may flash briefly.

Notes: 

Hand Paddle:

 The Hand Paddle can be changed from side to side at any time during 

a session.
The Hand Paddle casing for the LED lights may become very warm with extended 

use. If it feels uncomfortable, turn it off and allow it to cool before continuing.

Timing:

 When either the Mode or Hand Paddle setting is changed the timing is reset.

Cleaning the Hand Paddle Lenses: 

Use a damp cloth. Do not spray water directly 

on the Hand Paddle as this risks moisture entering the casing. Do not use abrasive 

chemicals on the plastic.
