•
Push the ON/HI button several times to carefully increase the intensity (maximum of 10).
You will notice a tingling sensation prior to the muscle contracting. Once the muscle is
contracting it will be pleasant and relaxing. Adjust the intensity according to your comfort
level. You should feel a strong but comfortable contraction of the muscles. The intensity
has 10 steps. With every push of the ON/HI button you can increase the intensity by one
step, with every push of the button OFF/LO you decrease the intensity by one step
•
To switch the unit off, press the OFF/LO button several times, until the LCD light goes off
TREATMENT
As you become accustomed to your machine, adjust the controls to provide maximum comfort
and efficiency. Turn the output controls on, then gradually advance them until you feel an in-
termittent tingling sensation (these settings will vary with different people and different muscle
groups). Slowly advance the output control settings a little at a time until you feel a rhythmic
muscle movement. At approximately 5 minute intervals, you can slightly increase the settings,
thus increasing the strength of the impulse to maintain a strong but comfortable contraction.
These settings will vary from person to person and you do not need to go beyond the setting
that is comfortable for you. You should feel a regular contracting and relaxing of the muscles
being exercised. Do not be alarmed by the sensation of the involuntary contractions. Most
people find this movement strange at first but you will soon become used to it.
A correct contraction occurs when the initial tingling sensation lessens and a good movement
of the muscle is seen and felt. If a proper contraction is not experienced then the placement is
incorrect. You will need to turn off the unit and move the belt into a different position. Then,
making sure the skin underneath is free from oil, reposition the pads slightly, then gradually
turn up the controls (also ensuring that the skin/pads are wet or have the water based gel still
on).
If at any time during your treatment, you need to adjust or re-position the Ab Gym Belt, always
turn the machine off first, and set all the controls to OFF/O. After several weeks of daily use,
the muscles treated will have toned up. Continued regular use of the Ab Gym Belt for once or
twice a week will maintain their condition.
At the end of each treatment, turn all the controls to the position OFF/O.
N.B. Always ensure that the skin is absolutely clean before treatment.
Never immerse the unit (or any of its parts) in water.
