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 stimulation 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
checking the controller with new batteries and/or adjusting the belt to
ensure correct positioning. New GelPads can be purchased from your
nearest
retailer, online at www.slendertone.com, or from our
SLENDERTONE
Toll Free Customer Care Line at 1-800-551-2443.
The GelPads are not sticking to the belt even though they are fairly new.
Can this be improved?
Ensure the grid side of each GelPad is stuck to the belt. If the grid side is
facing you, you should reverse the GelPad so that the black side is facing
you. With the liner still on the GelPads, press the edges of each GelPad
firmly onto the belt before and after each session.
I find it difficult putting on the belt. What should I do?
If you have trouble fitting the belt around your waist, you should hold the
belt by the ends, position the central GelPad as usual and stretch the belt
as far as you can before fastening it behind your back. A belt extension is also
available from your
SLENDERTONE
from our Toll Free Customer Care Line at 1-800-551-2443.
The stimulation is uncomfortable. How can I improve this?
Ensure the GelPads are positioned correctly and that they are pressed
firmly against your skin. You can check their placement by switching off
your controller and repositioning the belt as described on page 7.

My skin is red after the exercise. Is this a problem?
Some redness of the skin after a
due to an increase in the blood-flow under the skin and should fade after
the treatment. You may also experience some reddening of the skin due to
the pressure of the stretched belt. This is common and is the same as the
pressure marks you can get from tight clothing. You should not be
concerned about this, but should only wear the belt during a session. If it
is excessive, you may have the intensity too high, which can increase the
reddening in sensitive skin. Try using the product at a lower intensity for a
few days. If the problem persists, you should stop using the product.
I can feel a tingling sensation in my legs during an exercise. What should
I do?
Moving the two smaller GelPads upward and inward (ie. towards the center
of your body) on your waist should prevent this.
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 2 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 GelPad slightly higher on
your stomach. If this doesn't help, move the 2 small GelPads to a larger
figure setting on the belt (away from the central GelPad).
