Setup and Battery Installation

1. Battery Installation:
   • Locate the battery compartment on one of the end caps.
   • Remove the battery cover by turning it counter-clockwise.
   • Insert 2 "AA" batteries (not included) into the chamber, ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
   • Replace the battery cover by turning it clockwise until secure.
2. Water Filling (Optional for Hot/Cold Therapy):
   • To fill the foot roller, open the water chamber. This is typically done by twisting or pulling one of the end caps. Refer to the product diagram if unsure.
   • For Hot Therapy, fill the chamber with warm water. DO NOT fill with water over 110°F (43°C) to prevent damage to the unit and potential burns.
   • For Cold Therapy, fill the chamber with ice cold water.
   • Securely close the water chamber after filling to prevent leaks.

Operating Instructions

1. Placement: Place the HoMedics Hydra Vibration Foot Massage Roller on a flat, stable surface, such as the floor.
2. Activate Vibration: Press the power button, usually located on one of the end caps, to activate the vibration feature.
3. Massage Application: Gently place your foot on the roller. Apply desired pressure and slowly roll your foot back and forth over the textured surface. The Acu-Nodes are designed to target pressure points.
4. Hot/Cold Therapy: If you have filled the chamber with warm or cold water, the temperature will transfer to the roller's surface, enhancing the massage experience.
5. Duration: Use for a comfortable duration. It is recommended to start with short sessions (5-10 minutes) and adjust as needed.
6. Deactivate: After completing your massage, press the power button again to turn off the vibration.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: After each use, especially if water was used, empty the water from the chamber and dry the unit completely with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the entire unit in water.
• Storage: Store the massager in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing it in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
• Battery Care: If the unit will not be used for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent leakage and corrosion.
