Setup Instructions

Follow these steps to set up your Igia ElectroSage 8 Massage Mat:

1. Insert Battery: The control unit requires a 9V battery (not included). Open the battery compartment on the back of the control unit and insert a fresh 9V battery, ensuring correct polarity.
2. Attach Leads to Pads: Connect the detachable leads to the self-adhesive massaging pads. Ensure a secure connection.
3. Connect Leads to Control Unit: Plug the other end of the detachable leads into the corresponding ports on the Igia ElectroSage 8 control unit. The unit has 4 output ports, each controlling two pads.
4. Prepare Skin: Ensure the skin where you intend to place the pads is clean, dry, and free of oils or lotions for optimal adhesion and conductivity.
5. Apply Pads: Carefully peel the protective film from the self-adhesive pads and apply them firmly to the desired muscle areas. Refer to the diagram on the product packaging for suggested placement (e.g., abs, buttocks, thighs, legs, back, face).

Operating Instructions

Once the unit is set up and pads are applied, follow these steps to operate your ElectroSage 8:

1. Power On: Turn the main power dial (usually labeled 'I/O' or 'On/Off') on the control unit to the 'On' position. A small indicator light may illuminate.
2. Adjust Intensity (Strength): Use the 'Strength' dials to adjust the intensity of the massage for each pair of pads. Start with the lowest setting and gradually increase until you feel a comfortable pulsing sensation. Avoid setting the intensity too high, which may cause discomfort.
3. Select Interval: Use the 'Interval' dial to control the timing or rhythm of the pulses. Experiment with different settings to find what is most comfortable for your muscle stimulation.
4. Adjust Stress/Mode: The 'Stress' dial (or mode selector) allows you to choose different massage patterns or modes. Rotate this dial to cycle through available options and find the one that best suits your needs for muscle relief.
5. Session Duration: Use the device for recommended durations as per the instruction manual (not specified in provided data, so keep general). If discomfort occurs, reduce intensity or stop use.
6. Power Off: After your session, turn the main power dial to the 'Off' position.
7. Remove Pads: Gently peel the pads from your skin. Replace the protective film on the adhesive side of the pads to preserve their stickiness for future use.
