Maintenance
To Fold
This massage mat incorporates a unique strapping system
that allows you to fold the unit for storage and transportation. This
massage mat incorporates a folding method similar to an accordion
(see Diagram A-D). Fold the top portion inward so the heat seal
pattern is always facing up. Repeat this method. You can also roll up
the mat for storage. Then pull the elastic strap, sewn into the mat,
around the unit.
To Store
Place massager in its box or a safe, dry, cool place.
Avoid contact with sharp edges or pointed objects which might cut or
puncture the fabric surface. To avoid breakage, do not wrap the power
cord around the unit. Do not hang the unit by the controller cord.
To Clean
Unplug the unit and allow it to cool before cleaning.
Clean only with a soft, slightly damp sponge. Never allow water or
any other liquid to come into contact with the unit.
• Do not immerse in any liquid to clean.
• Never use abrasive cleaners, brushes, gasoline, kerosene, glass/
furniture polish or paint thinner to clean.
• Do not attempt to repair the massager. There are no user serviceable
