Error Messages
In the unlikely event of your controller developing a problem, "Err" will appear on
your controller's display (Fig. d). If this occurs you should switch the controller
off and then switch it back on again. It should now operate properly. If the
problem persists, please call the

Battery Power / Replacing the Battery
The battery icon on the display will flash when the battery is low and needs
to be recharged. After a period of time, you may find that your battery will only
power your controller for a limited number of sessions, requiring you to charge
the battery more frequently. This is because rechargeable batteries have a
limited number of charge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced.
Should you need to replace the rechargeable battery, remove the small rubber
plug from the back cover of your controller (Fig. e), unscrew the back cover and
remove it. Replace the existing battery pack with a new battery pack (Fig. f )
and replace the battery cover. You can purchase a new battery pack by contacting
the Careline.

frequently asked questions

Can I use my product for post natal exercises?
• Yes, but you must wait a minimum of 6 weeks
after childbirth before you begin using it and
you must consult your doctor first.
• If you've had a Caesarean in the past 3 months,
consult your doctor for approval before using
the belt.
The stimulation is uncomfortable. How can I
improve this?
• Make sure the GelPads are positioned correctly
and that they are pressed firmly against your
skin (see page 7 & 8). Switch off your controller
and reposition the belt if necessary.
• You can also spread a few drops of water on the
black surface of the GelPads. This can improve
the comfort of the muscle stimulation, but be
careful not to get water on the controller.
Ensure the controller is switched OFF before
you do this!
• Ensure the metal studs are fully covered by the
GelPads.
I can feel a tingling sensation in my legs during
an exercise. What should I do?
• This indicates that the GelPads are over your
hip-bones. Moving the two smaller GelPads
upwards and inwards on your waist (i.e. towards
the center of your body) should prevent this.
Remember to pause or switch off your
6 controller before adjusting the
SLENDERTONE ABS
belt or GelPads.
My skin is red after the exercise. Is this a
problem?
• Some redness of the skin after a training session
is normal. It is partly due to an increase in the
blood flow under the skin and should fade
after a while. You may also experience some
reddening of the skin due to the pressure of the
belt. This is the same as the pressure marks you
can get from tight clothing. You should not be
concerned about this. It should fade soon after
you remove the belt.
• If the redness is excessive, you may have the
training intensity too high. This may increase
the reddening in sensitive skin. Try using a lower
training intensity for a few days. If the problem
persists, you should stop using the product.
Will the product cause muscle soreness?
• As with all exercise some muscle soreness can
occur after using the belt. This is normal and
should go away after a day or two. Use a low
training intensity for a few sessions if you are
experiencing muscle soreness.
How do I know when to replace the GelPads?
• With time the GelPads pick up skin debris and
may need to be replaced as this makes the
workout less effective and less comfortable.
• You may notice the signal is weakening even if
the batteries are OK. This usually indicates that
the GelPads are wearing and will soon need
replacing. You can check this by first adjusting
the belt to ensure correct positioning of the
GelPads. If the problem persists, try using the
controller with a new battery pack. If the signal
is still weak or uncomfortable, you should order
new GelPads.
• New GelPads can be purchased online at
www.slendertone.com or from the
SLENDERTONE
Careline.
I can feel my waist muscles exercising but not
my stomach muscles.
• Pause the program and reposition the central
GelPad slightly lower on your stomach. If this
doesn't help, move the two small GelPads to a
smaller figure setting on the belt (towards the
central GelPad).
I can feel my stomach muscles exercising but
not my waist muscles.
• Pause the program and reposition the central
GelPads slightly higher on your stomach. If this
doesn't help, move the two smaller GelPads to a
larger figure setting on the belt (away from the
central GelPad).
Battery performance has degraded significantly.
• After an extended period of time you may
notice a degradation in the performance of the
battery in your controller. At this point you
should purchase a new rechargeable battery
pack. New rechargeable battery packs can be
purchased through the Careline, or
SLENDERTONE
by visiting www.slendertone.com.
