6. Operating Instructions
To begin a session, follow these steps:
- Prepare the Foot Bath: Fill a suitable foot basin (not included) with warm water. The machine is compatible with various basin types.
- Add Salt: Add a small amount of salt to the water. The 'E' reading on the machine's display should be between 0.1 and 2.0. Adjust salt quantity as needed to achieve this range. Too much salt will cause the machine to beep and stop.
- Place Array and Feet: Submerge the array completely in the water. Place your feet into the water, ensuring they are comfortable.
- Wear Wrist Strap: Securely attach the conductive wrist strap to your wrist, ensuring the metal plate makes good contact with your skin.
- Start Session: Turn on the main unit. Use the control panel to set the desired session time (typically 10-30 minutes). Press 'ENT' to start the session.
- Use Waistbelt (Optional): If desired, wrap the far infrared waistbelt around your waist and turn it on for additional heat therapy.
- Monitor Progress: The machine will operate for the set duration. Observe the water color changes, which are a result of the electrolytic reaction and oxidation.
- End Session: The machine will automatically stop when the time expires. Turn off the unit and unplug it from the power source.

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your device:
- Cleaning the Array: After each use, clean the array thoroughly with water and a brush to remove any residue. Ensure it is dry before storage.
- Cleaning the Main Unit: Wipe the main unit with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the unit in water.
- Storage: Store the machine and its components in a cool, dry place, preferably in its original aluminum box, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Array Replacement: The array is a consumable part and will need periodic replacement as it corrodes over time. Replacement arrays can be purchased from the manufacturer or authorized sellers.
8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues during operation, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Machine beeps continuously. | Too much salt in the water, or 'E' reading is too high. | Add more water to dilute the salt, or replace some water with fresh water until the 'E' reading is between 0.1 and 2.0. |
| Array not producing bubbles. | Insufficient salt in the water, or 'E' reading is too low. Array not properly connected. Array is worn out. | Add a small amount of salt to the water until the 'E' reading is between 0.1 and 2.0. Check array connection. Replace array if it is old or damaged. |
| No power to the unit. | Power cord not properly connected. Power outlet issue. | Ensure power cord is securely plugged into the unit and the wall outlet. Test the outlet with another device. |
| Wrist strap not registering. | Wrist strap not making good skin contact. Wrist strap cable loose or damaged. | Adjust wrist strap to ensure firm skin contact. Check cable connection. Replace wrist strap if damaged. |
