2. Be sure to cover up moles, warts or other marks on the skin that should not be treated. Use
a material that does not absorb the light such as a white cloth or white medical tape.
6.4 Do a spot test
It's important to do a spot test on each part of the body you wish to treat. A spot test checks that
the skin colour is suitable for treatment, and that you know which energy level is comfortable for
the area you are treating. Both skin colour and energy level may vary depending on the target
treatment area.
1. Press the control button (#3) to turn on the device. The automatic energy level setting
indicator light (green) (#4) will go on.
2. Place the treatment surface (#10) on your skin and press the pulse button (#7) to deliver
one pulse. Make sure your hand touches the base electrode (#8) together with the pulse
button (#7). When the treatment surface (#10) is in full contact with the skin, the ready
light / skin tone warning indicator light (#6) will start blinking green slowly.
3. If you do not experience abnormal discomfort press the control button (#3) again. This will
increase the energy level by one increment.
4. Press the pulse button (#7) with your hand touching the base electrode (#8) to deliver
another pulse on a different spot at energy level 2. Continue testing at increased energy
levels. Use the energy levels indicated on the skin colour chart. When you find the highest
energy level that is comfortable for that treatment area, you can start your treatment.
C
Use a lower energy level if you experience discomfort.
You are now ready to perform a treatment.
6.5 Treatment steps
1. Press the control button (#3). The device will turn on, the automatic energy level setting
indicator light (#4) will be green, and a fan sound will start.
2. After pressing the control button (#3), the ready light /skin tone warning indicator light
(#6) will be green. The device is then ready to use at the lowest energy level. Always start at
energy level 1 for your first treatment.
3. Set the energy level. Press the control button (#3) repeatedly to increase the energy level
until you have the level you want. The energy level indicator lights (#5) indicate the energy
level setting (see section 4.6 Energy levels). The number of energy level indicator lights (#5)
that are on, indicates the energy level selected.
4. Decide if you wish to treat the area by Pulsing or Gliding (see section 4.8 Pulsing and
gliding).
5. Apply the treatment surface (#10) to the skin. Press the pulse button (#7). The device will
first determine the colour of your skin automatically. If the skin colour is light enough for
safe application, the device will activate the Galvanic energy. You will feel a mild sensation
of warmth and tingling, and you may hear a popping sound. This is completely normal. The
Galvanic energy works to enlarge your pores for a better application of the treatment.
G
If your hand does not touch the base electrode (#8) no Galvanic energy will be emitted.
