Why a paraffin bath?
Paraffin baths are used to make cracked or brittle
skin smooth, supple and elastic again. They promote
the blood circulation of the skin and even help to
improve extremely dry skin.
The deep heat that is generated also feels very
pleasant.
The heat opens the pores of the skin, allowing the
active ingredients to penetrate more easily.
Before first use
1) Wipe the device with a damp cloth inside and
out to remove any dust residue left over from
transport. Dry it well so that there is no moisture
left in the appliance.
2) Place the appliance on a level and heat-resistant
surface. Also keep in mind that paraffin wax
splashes may drip onto the surface. The surface should therefore be easy to clean.
Preparing the appliance
Once the appliance is set up on a suitable surface:
1) Remove the paraffin wax from its packaging.
2) Put the paraffin wax into the inner bowl .
NOTE
► Add paraffin wax to the inner bowl until
at least the level of the MIN marking. Do not
exceed the MAX marking.
3) Insert the plug into a mains power socket.
The POWER indicator lamp illuminates.
4) Set the temperature control to “hot”. The
HEAT control lamp illuminates in orange to
show that the appliance is heating up.
5) Close the lid .
After about 2.5 hours the paraffin wax has
melted.
WARNING – RISK OF INJURY!
Never dip your hands or any other body parts
into the paraffin wax once the appliance has
heated up to "hot". Risk of burns!
6) When the paraffin wax has melted, remove
the lid .
7) Put the grille into the inner bowl and let
it sink to the bottom.
8) Turn back the temperature control until you
feel a noticeable resistance when turning and
the temperature control is pointing to the
gap on the temperature scale.
9) Wait until the HEAT control lamp lights up
green. Now the paraffin wax has cooled to
around 60°C and has the ideal temperature
for application.
You can now start application.
Use of the appliance
NOTE
► Exterior influences such as the room tempera-
ture can affect the temperature of the paraffin
wax . You should therefore test to see whether
the temperature is comfortable before each
application. To do this, place a little paraffin
wax onto the inside of your wrist. If this
feels pleasant, you can keep the paraffin
wax at this temperature.
► If a skin forms on the paraffin wax , increase
the temperature slightly.
► If you wish to treat both hands at the same
time you will require the assistance of a second person, since you cannot use your hands
with the layer of wax on them.
You can use the paraffin bath on your hands, feet
or elbows. The procedure is always the same. In
this manual, the application is described using the
example of the hands.

NOTE
► Depending on the condition of your hands,
we recommend treatment with the paraffin
bath about 1–2 times per month.

CAUTION – PROPERTY DAMAGE
► Ensure that no paraffin wax gets onto your
clothes during use. This can be very difficult
to remove and may result in discolouration.
1) Remove any jewellery, such as rings or bracelets.
2) Treat your hands with a rich cream, such as
hand cream.
3) Briefly immerse your hand in the paraffin wax
for about 1 - 2 seconds. Remove your hand
again and wait for the paraffin wax to
harden.
4) Repeat this process about 6 - 7 times so that
a layer of paraffin wax forms.
NOTE
► If you have the feeling that the temperature
is too high or too low at any time, correct this
using the temperature control .
► If you want to pause the heating of the ap-
pliance for a short time, turn the temperature
control to the left as far as the stop. The
HEAT control lamp goes out. This is not an
adequate substitute for removing the power
plug after finishing the treatment!
5) Insert your hand into one of the plastic bags ,
and twist the bag closed at the opening so
that no air can escape.
WARNING – RISK OF INJURY!
If you pull the plastic bag over your foot, do
not walk around with it on. Risk of slipping.
6) After about 15–20 minutes, remove the plastic
bag together with the paraffin wax and
dispose of both in your household waste.
For hygiene reasons, paraffin wax that has
already been applied to the body must not be
reused!
NOTE
► Always remove the grille from the liquid
paraffin wax immediately after completing
the application.
NOTE
► Pure paraffin wax cannot spoil. After every
use of the paraffin bath, impurities can get
into the paraffin wax . We therefore recommend replacing the paraffin wax that has
already been melted in the appliance after
no more than one year.
Cleaning and maintenance
NOTE
► If the paraffin bath is only being used by one
person, replace the paraffin wax as soon
as you notice dirt or suspended particles in
the paraffin wax . The appliance should
also be cleaned when doing this.
► If the paraffin bath is being used by several
people, the paraffin wax should be
changed before every treatment for hygiene
reasons.
► To reorder paraffin wax or plastic bags ,
contact our Customer Service (see section
"Warranty and service"). Have the IAN
number of the item concerned to hand. You
will find this on the cover of the operating
instructions and below the service address.
To remove the paraffin wax proceed as follows:
– Remove the power plug from the mains
power socket.
– Leave the paraffin wax to harden overnight.– Replace the plug in the mains power socket.– Put the lid on. – Set the temperature control to “hot” and
wait for approximately 10 minutes (depending
on the room temperature).
– Remove the power plug from the mains
power socket.
