How to use the hydromassage system
(Instructions valid for all models)
This paragraph describes the procedure
necessary to operate the hydromassage system,
as well as a number of practical suggestions.
Please remember that it is advisable to allow at
least two hours after a meal before a relaxing
massage.
First, switch the appliance on using the main
ON/OFF switch. Then fi ll the tub until the level
of the water is 5 - 6 cm above the hydromassage
nozzles.
The ideal water temperature for an effective
hydromassage is very slightly above normal
body temperature, i.e. about 37°C. If you add
essences to the water, read the instructions on
the product with care; if these products are not
specifi cally designed for use with hydromassage
systems, they may produce excessive foam when
the water is agitated.
To start (or stop) the hydromassage cycle, refer to
the specifi c operating instructions in the second
section of this manual.
The duration of the hydromassage cycle depends
on personal taste; however it should be borne
in mind that long hydromassage treatments may
lower the blood pressure or cause excessive
muscular relaxation.
When using the hydromassage system for the
fi rst few times, it is advisable to limit the duration
of the cycle to between 10 and 20 minutes, then
to work up to the standard duration for the cycle
(30 minutes), which is more than suffi cient to
obtain the benefi cial effects of the hydromassage
treatment.
After a hydromassage session, check that all
the nozzles are open and exit the tub. Start the
disinfection system to clean the internal parts of
the hydromassage circuit (refer to the instructions
relative to the disinfection system fi tted to the
appliance).
It is advisable to sit or lie down in a comfortable
position for ten to twenty minutes after a
hydromassage in order to enjoy the fullest
effect.
