1. Plug the charger into a mains socket and switch the socket on. Connect
the control unit to the battery charger (Fig. a). It will take 3 hours to fully
charge the battery. Your unit is fully charged when all three sections of
the battery icon on the display are full. You must charge the unit for at
least 3 hours before using Face for the first time. Disconnect the control
unit from the charger.
2. Remove the gel pads from their pack. You will notice that there is a
plastic cover on either side of each gel pad. One of these covers is a blue
coloured plastic and the other is a clear plastic.
3. Carefully remove the blue cover from one gel pad and place it on one
of the paddles as shown in Fig. c. Repeat with a second gel pad, placing
it on the other paddle.
4. Remove the clear plastic covers from the gel pads (Fig. d). Do not
throw these covers away as you will need to put them back onto the gel
pads at the end of your session.
Notes: You should only use Slendertone gel pads, as others may reduce
the safety and effectiveness of the product.
Before using your Face unit please ensure that you have completely removed
any make up, creams and oils from face. Also ensure that you rinse your
face with warm water after using make up remover products.
5. Connect the control unit to the headset as per Fig. e. The control unit
and headset must be properly connected for your Slendertone Face product
to work.
Note: Before switching-on your Face unit, make sure the gel pads completely
cover the black paddle contacts.
6. With the paddles facing forwards, bring the headset from behind your
head and below your ears, until the gel pads sit on your face. When correctly
positioned, the paddles should lie directly below your cheekbones about
one finger's width in front of each ear (Fig. f ). Use a mirror to help you
position the headset correctly.
Note: Only position the paddles as shown in Fig. f. Don't place them directly
onto the cheekbones, as this can lead to an uncomfortable sensation.

9. Increasing the intensity
Using the intensity buttons, increase the intensity to a level that is comfortable
for you (Fig. i). The intensity goes from 0-99. You should increase the
Fig. c
intensity until you are able to see small contractions of your facial muscles.
Then reduce the intensity by one increment and enjoy the comfortable
sensation. The facial muscles are small and delicate, so they only need a
gentle level of stimulation.
Note:
- If you find the signal is uncomfortable, check that the gel pads are clean
Fig. d
and that they are correctly positioned on the headset paddles.
- It is not important for the stimulation intensity to be equal on both sides
of the face. It is more important to adjust the intensity on each side so
that the feeling of stimulation is the same.
Important:
- If you feel a twitching around the eye, or if you feel any discomfort during

two to three days please consult page 17 of this manual.
