If you have problems getting your product to work, you should go through the following checklist:
Have you charged your battery?
It takes 3 hours to fully charge your battery.
Is your head set fully connected to the control unit?
Push the connector on your headset fully into the socket on the control unit.
Are the gel pads completely covering the paddles on the headset?
Double-check the gel pads on your headset to ensure that they are fully covering the paddles.
Before starting a session, check that all plastic covers have been removed from both sides of the
gel pads. Remember to keep the clear plastic covers to protect the gel pads between sessions.
When did you last change your gel pads?
The gel pads need to be changed periodically. Call the Careline to order new gel pads or just ask
at the retail outlet in which the product was purchased. We recommend that you
replace the gel pads at least once a week.
If this display in Fig. a begins flashing on your screen, it indicates a contact
problem with one of the following:
- The control unit and headset are not properly connected.
- The gel pads have not been placed onto the paddles before starting a session.
- The gel pads are not fully covering the paddles on the headset. *
- The clear plastic covers have not been removed from the pads.
- The gel pads are worn. *
* This display always appears with the left/ right paddle indicators. If the left
indicator appears (Fig. b), there is a problem with the left paddle or gel pad. The
right indicator (Fig. c) indicates a problem with the right paddle or gel pad and if
both indicators appear (Fig. d), there is a problem on both sides.

You should always wait for 24 hours after the administration of Botox

Botox reduces stubborn frown lines and brow furrows by chemically reducing muscle activity in

the area between the eyes (the 'glabella') and just above this. Sometimes it is also used to reduce
'crows feet' around the eyes, but Botox

injected (i.e., there may still be some movement of the injected muscles even early on, depending
on the dose administered). As the muscle recovers movement over time, the gentle stimulation
from Slendertone Face will counteract any atrophy of the muscles, which develops when muscles
are repeatedly paralysed using Botox

You should always wait for 24 hours after the administration of facial fillers (e.g., Restylane™,
Perlane™, Juvederm™) before using your Slendertone Face product.

Restylane™, Perlane™ and Juvederm™ are facial fillers used to help reduce the signs of ageing.
They are made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally occurring in the body. Restylane™,
Perlane™ and Juvederm™ are various brands of hyaluronic acid, designed for injection under the

skin. They help to fill hollows in the facial skin, which result from the ageing process, such as lines
under the eyes (also known as tear trough deformity), smile lines and marionette lines. It is
important that a trained physician delivers the filler to ensure a smooth, even appearance. The
effects of this treatment are temporary and most patients will require treatment every six months.
