Operating Instructions
Starting a Session
Once the wrap is securely in place and charged, press the power button located on the wrap to begin a therapy session. The red and infrared lights will illuminate.
Session Duration
Each therapy session is pre-programmed for 20 minutes. The device will automatically shut off after 20 minutes. This duration is optimized for energizing cells and achieving effective results.
Recommended Usage
One 20-minute session daily is generally sufficient. For enhanced benefits, you may conduct up to three 20-minute sessions per day per treatment area. However, significant additional benefits beyond the first 20 minutes are not typically observed.
Ending a Session
The device will automatically power off after 20 minutes. To manually end a session, press and hold the power button until the lights turn off.
Maintenance
Battery Care
The Back Wrap is equipped with USB-rechargeable Li-polymer batteries. These batteries are designed to be partially discharged and recharged without developing a "memory effect." Regular recharging is recommended to maintain optimal battery performance. A fully charged battery provides approximately three 20-minute sessions.
Cleaning Instructions
To clean the Back Wrap, gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Do not submerge the device in water or use harsh chemicals, as this may damage the electronic components. Ensure the device is completely dry before storing or recharging.
