TIME, MODE and the lights

Updated Nov 3, 2026← All help topics

Switch it on

Slide the POWER switch up. The POWER light comes on and the other lights start to circle.

Circling lights: no need to wait

The circling just means the metal tip is warming to body temperature. It happens in the background, so carry on setting up. When all six lights flash three times, the tip is warm. You can also just touch it. The tip warms again after you install a new program.

MODE: the intensity

Press MODE to choose L (low), M (medium) or H (high).

TIME: the session

Nothing runs until you set a time. Press TIME for 5, 10 or 15 minutes. The session starts, and the time light blinks while it counts down. With five minutes left, the 5 light takes over.

The device makes no sound when the time is up, so keep an eye on the lights or set a timer on your phone.
