6. Assembly

You can use the facial sauna either with the face mask 1 or the nose mask 2.

6.1 Fill in water

WARNING! Risk of material damage!

- Please do not add any additives to the water in the water container 5 such as e.g. oils. After the water has evaporated these additives may burn in and cause damage to the water container 5.

- The measuring beaker 9 is labelled with a scale (5 min, 10 min, 15 min) on both sides:

• With switch setting 1 of the steam flow rate control 7 (lower steam quantity) use scale 1.

• With switch setting 2 of the steam flow rate control 7 (higher steam quantity, only for use with the face mask 1) use scale 2.

• Fill tap water into the measuring beaker 9: at least up to the minimum marking 5 min, but no more than to the max. marking 15 min of the used scale 1 or 2.

• Pour the water into the water container 5.

6.2 Herbs and oil

You can place herbs, tea leafs or oils (on a cotton ball) into the aroma reservoirs 1 and 4. These will then pass their beneficial effect on to you together with the steam.

Tips

• If you are not sure with regard to the effect of herbs or oils, ask your pharmacist or read the package leaflet.
  • Always add only just a few drops of oil to a cotton wool pad.
• If you wish to use very fine herbs or even powders, ensure that these do not

ingress into the water container 5. It is best if you first place such herbs/powders into a small filter bag or place the same on a cotton wool pad.

6.3 Set-up with face mask

1. Place the face mask 1 on the basic unit 6.

2. The opening of the face mask 1 is located above the on/off switch 7.

3. The lateral lugs must fit into the recesses on the basic unit 6.

4. If required: If necessary, take the lid 3 off the aroma reservoir 1. For this, grab both lugs and pull off the lid 3 upwards. Fill some tea leaves or herbs into the inner ring of the aroma reservoir 1 and put the lid 3 of the aroma reservoir on.

NOTES:

• Please add oils one drop at a time to a cotton wool pad and place the same into the aroma reservoir 1.

• If you are not sure about the effect of the herbs or oils (stinging eyes etc.), ask a pharmacist before first use.

• Turn the face mask 1 a bit clockwise until it is connected firmly with the base unit 6.

• Connect the mains plug 10 with a wall socket. The on/off switch 7 is set to 0.

6.4 Set-up with nose mask

1. Figure A: Place the aroma reservoir 4 onto the basic unit 6.

- The lateral lugs must fit into the recesses on the basic unit 6.

1. If required: If necessary, take the lid 3 off the aroma reservoir 4. For this, grab both lugs and pull off the lid 3 upwards. Fill some tea leaves or herbs into the inner ring of the aroma reservoir 4 and put the lid 3 of the aroma reservoir on.

NOTES:

• Please add oils one drop at a time to a cotton wool pad and place the same into the aroma reservoir 4.

• If you are not sure about the effect of the herbs or oils (stinging eyes etc.), ask a pharmacist before first use.

• Place the nose mask 2 with its aperture pointing toward the front onto the aroma reservoir 4.

• Connect the mains plug 10 with a wall socket. The on/off switch 7 is set to 0.

7. Operation

The heat and moisture of the steam opens the pores and thus provides for a better removal of any impurities. Using the facial sauna you prepare your skin optimally for further applications, such as for example face masks or deep cleansing. Naturally, the use of the facial sauna is also simply just fantastically relaxing.

DANGER! Risk of injury through burning/ scalding!

- The water is boiling in the water container 5 during operation. Any contact with boiling water or hot steam may cause serious injury. Use the device only with one of the two attachments 1 or 2.

NOTE: what to do when you are not feeling well

If you do not feel well during the use of the facial sauna or your breathing becomes restricted in any way (shortness of breath), stop using the device immediately and switch the device off.

7.1 Switching on and off

By turning the on/off switch / steam flow rate controller 7 you switch the device on and off and control the steam quantity in two stages.

• 0: device is switched off
• 1: lower steam quantity
• 2: higher steam quantity (only for use with the face mask)

7.2 Switching off automatically

For safety reasons the device switches off automatically if the water in the water container 5 has evaporated. Before the device can then be switched back on again, the mains plug 10 must be disconnected once and then re-connected.

7.3 Face mask

1. Prepare the face mask as described (see "Assembly" on page 7).
2. Switch the on/off switch / steam flow rate controller 7 to 1 or 2. The LED 8 lights up.
3. Figure C: after approx. 2-3 minutes, steam is generated. Hold your face into the face mask. Close your eyes and enjoy the beneficial effect of the steam.
4. Figure E: the steam quantity can also be set by means of the manual steam flow rate controller 11. For more steam, you push the controller into the direction MAX, for less steam you push the controller into the direction MIN.

NOTE: the deeper you hold your face into the face mask, the more intensive the effect of the steam will be. If this becomes too much for you, take your head a little out of the face mask.

1. Switch the on/off switch / steam flow rate controller 7 to 0. The LED 8 extinguishes and the device is switched off.
2. Wait for the device to completely cool down.
3. Pull out the mains plug 10.
4. By a slight turn to the right you release the face mask 1 and take it off.
5. If necessary, you take off the lid of the aroma reservoir 3 and dispose of the content of the aroma reservoir.

7.4 Nose mask

DANGER! Hazard caused by hot steam!

Figure B: the distance to the water container is significantly less during use of the nose mask 2 and the steam effect is significantly higher. Therefore, the nose mask 2 may only be used with stage 1.

1. Prepare the nose mask as described (see "Assembly" on page 7).
2. Switch the on/off switch / steam flow rate controller 7 to 1. The LED 8 lights up.
3. Figure D: after approx. 2-3 minutes, steam is generated. Hold your nose into the nose mask 2. Close your eyes and enjoy the beneficial effect of the steam.

NOTE: the closer you place your nose to the nose mask 2, the more intensive the effect of the steam on the nasal mucosa will be. If this becomes too much for you, take your nose a little out of the nose mask 2.

1. Switch the on/off switch / steam flow rate controller 7 to 0. The LED 8 extinguishes and the device is switched off.

2. Wait for the device to completely cool down.

3. Pull out the mains plug 10.

4. Pull off the nose mask 2 from the aroma reservoir 4.
5. By a slight turn to the right you release the aroma reservoir 4 and take it off.
6. If necessary, you take off the lid 3 of the aroma reservoir 4 and dispose of the content of the aroma reservoir.

8. Cleaning

DANGER!

• Pull out the mains plug 10 from the wall socket before cleaning the facial sauna.
• Allow the device to cool down completely before you transport or clean it.
