Frequently Asked Questions - BubbleBliss Elite BB-5 HOMEDICS

How do I clean the BubbleBliss Elite BB-5 foot bath?

Unplug the unit and wipe the interior and exterior with a damp cloth. Do not immerse in water. The removable rollers can be rinsed separately.

What type of water should I use?

Use clean tap water. For best results, water temperature should be comfortable – not too hot. Do not add essential oils directly into the water; use a sealed bag if desired.

How long does the heating function last?

The heating element maintains a consistent temperature for up to 30 minutes, then the unit automatically shuts off for safety.

Can I use the foot bath with bubble massage while heating?

Yes, the bubble and heat functions can be used simultaneously. Adjust the dial to your preferred intensity.

Is the foot bath safe to use with wet feet?

Yes, it's designed for wet feet. However, ensure the unit is on a dry surface and the power cord is away from water.

What is the maximum water level?

Do not fill above the 'MAX' line indicated inside the basin. Overfilling may cause water to enter the control panel.

How do I replace the roller attachments?

The rollers snap off and on. Gently pull them upward to remove, and press firmly to reattach. They are dishwasher safe on the top rack.

The foot bath stops working – what should I check?

First, ensure it's plugged into a working outlet. Check if the auto shut-off timer has expired. If still not working, contact Homedics customer service.

Can I use this foot bath on carpet?

It's recommended to use on a hard, level surface to avoid tipping. If on carpet, place a plastic mat underneath.

What is the warranty period?

The Homedics BubbleBliss Elite BB-5 comes with a 1-year limited warranty. Retain your receipt for service.

Grounding Instructions

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for the electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

DANGER

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the product - if it will not fit the outlet, you may temporarily use an adaptor (such as the one shown in Figure B) until you have a proper outlet (such as the one shown in Figure C) installed by a qualified electrician.

This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Figure A. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated in Figure B may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in Figure D if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet Figure C can be installed by a qualified electrician. The tab for grounding screw Figure B extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw. See Figures D and E.

Note: The Pedicure Center will operate even when the unit is in the "OFF" position. If the unit is plugged in and pressure is applied to the attachments, the Pedicure Center will operate.
