Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use
SLENDERTONE CONNECT ABS
• 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 section 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 11.
Switch off your controller and reposition the belt if necessary.
• You can also smear 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.
My skin is red after the exercise. Is this a problem?
• Temporary reddening of the skin under the GelPads after a toning session is normal. It is partly a result of increased
blood flow and should fade after a short while. Just as with tight clothing, the belt itself can leave a temporary skin
mark which should also fade quickly.
• If the redness is excessive, or persists for longer than 30 minutes, check the condition of your GelPads. Dry GelPads
can cause skin discomfort during stimulation causing irritation. In rare cases people can have an allergic skin reaction
to the GelPads, or be exceptionally sensitive to the stimulation current. Please contact customer care for advice.
The unit is not switching on. What should I do?
• If the Power Indicator doesn't light-up or the controller switch on when you press the Power Button, the battery
has most likely been completely discharged. Remove the controller from the belt, connect the USB cable and
charge your controller for a minimum of 3 hours. You should notice the amber Battery Indicator will come on
within a few minutes of beginning the charge.
• If the problem persists after charging, you should contact customer care for further assistance, as the controller
may need to be replaced.
How do I know when to replace the GelPads?
• With time the GelPads pick up skin debris and will need to be replaced, as this makes the workout less effective
and less comfortable.
• You may notice the signal is weakening even if the battery is fully charged. 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 signal is still weak or uncomfortable, you should order new GelPads.
• New GelPads can be purchased from www.slendertone.com or from customer care.
