5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Melting the Wax

1. Power On: Press the 'ON/OFF' button to turn on the machine. The digital display will illuminate.
2. Select Mode: The machine has two working modes: Temperature Heating Mode and Timed Heating Mode. Press the 'SET' button to toggle between these modes.
3. Set Temperature (Temperature Heating Mode): If in Temperature Heating Mode, use the '+' or '-' buttons to adjust the desired temperature. For melting wax, a higher temperature like 185°F (85°C) is recommended initially.
4. Set Time (Timed Heating Mode): If in Timed Heating Mode, use the '+' or '-' buttons to set the heating duration (1-99 minutes). The machine will automatically maintain constant heating according to the wax amount.
5. Melt Wax: Allow the wax to melt completely. This typically takes about 50 minutes for 2 lbs of wax at 185°F (85°C). The machine will emit three 'Di, Di, Di' sounds when the wax reaches 122°F (50°C), indicating it is ready for use.
6. Insert Grid: Once the wax is fully melted, place the heat insulating grid at the bottom of the pot. This prevents direct contact with the heating element.

5.2 Paraffin Treatment Application

1. Test Temperature: Before immersing your hand or foot, carefully test the wax temperature on a small, less sensitive area of your skin (e.g., wrist) to ensure it is comfortable and not too hot. The ideal temperature for application is typically around 125-130°F (52-54°C). Adjust using the '+' or '-' buttons if needed.
2. Prepare Skin: Ensure your hands, feet, or elbows are clean and dry.
3. Dip: Slowly dip your hand, foot, or elbow into the melted paraffin wax. Remove it for a few seconds to allow the wax to cool slightly and solidify, then dip again. Repeat this process 3-5 times to build up a thick layer of wax.
4. Cover: Immediately after the final dip, cover the waxed area with a disposable PE mitt/bootie.
5. Insulate: Place the cotton mitt or booties over the disposable cover to retain heat.
6. Relax: Allow the wax to remain on your skin for 10-15 minutes. This allows the heat and moisturizing properties to penetrate.
7. Remove Wax: Gently peel off the solidified paraffin wax. It should come off easily, taking dead skin cells with it. Discard the used wax.
8. Moisturize: After removing the wax, you may apply a moisturizer to further hydrate your skin.

5.3 Power Off

When finished, press the 'ON/OFF' button to turn off the machine and unplug it from the power outlet. Allow the machine and remaining wax to cool completely before handling or storing.

6. Maintenance and Cleaning

1. Unplug and Cool: Always ensure the machine is unplugged and completely cool before cleaning.
2. Remove Wax: If you need to clean the pot, allow the wax to solidify. Once solid, you can often gently lift the entire block of wax out. If wax remains, you can reheat it slightly to soften and then wipe it out with a paper towel or cloth.
3. Clean Interior: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the interior of the wax pot. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the pot is completely dry before next use.
4. Clean Exterior: Wipe the exterior of the machine with a soft, damp cloth.
5. Storage: Store the machine in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture.

7. Troubleshooting

• Machine Does Not Turn On:
  • Check if the power cord is securely plugged into both the machine and the electrical outlet.
  • Ensure the power outlet is functional by testing it with another appliance.
• Wax Not Melting:
  • Verify that the machine is powered on and the temperature is set appropriately (e.g., 185°F/85°C for initial melting).
  • Allow sufficient time for the wax to melt, especially if using a large quantity.
• Wax Too Hot/Cold:
  • Adjust the temperature setting using the '+' or '-' buttons. Allow a few minutes for the wax temperature to stabilize after adjustment.
  • Always test the wax temperature before application.
