Grounding Instructions

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for the electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

DANGER

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the product - if it will not fit the outlet, you may temporarily use an adaptor (such as the one shown

in Figure B) until you have a proper outlet (such as the one shown in Figure C) installed by a qualified electrician.

This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Figure A. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated in Figure B may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in Figure D if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet Figure C can be installed by a qualified electrician. The tab for grounding screw Figure B extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used,

it must be held in place by a metal screw. See Figures D and E.

BL-150 specifications

The HoMedics BL-150 is a leading-edge product designed to enhance relaxation and promote overall well-being through innovative technology. As a compact and versatile massager, it aims to provide an unparalleled massage experience right in the comfort of your home.

One of the standout features of the HoMedics BL-150 is its advanced Shiatsu massage capability. Shiatsu is a traditional Japanese massage technique that utilizes finger pressure to alleviate tension and promote relaxation. The BL-150 incorporates this technique by using rotating massage nodes that mimic the kneading motion of a practitioner’s hands. This ensures that users receive a thorough and effective massage that specifically targets sore muscles and tension points.

Another critical aspect of the HoMedics BL-150 is its customizable settings. Users can choose from multiple intensity levels and pre-programmed massage modes, allowing for a personalized experience tailored to individual preferences and needs. Whether users seek a light touch for relaxation or deeper pressure for muscle relief, the BL-150 can accommodate all desires, making it suitable for various body types and massage styles.

The device features a built-in heat function that enhances the overall massage experience. This soothing heat helps to increase blood circulation and further relaxes tense muscles, providing relief from everyday stress and discomfort. The combination of heat with the massage can lead to a more profound sense of relaxation, making it ideal for unwinding after a long day.

Portability is another crucial characteristic of the HoMedics BL-150. Its lightweight design, coupled with a convenient carrying handle, allows users to easily transport the massager from one location to another. Whether at home, in the office, or while traveling, users can enjoy a rejuvenating massage wherever they are.

Designed with user-friendliness in mind, the BL-150 features an intuitive control panel that makes it easy to adjust settings on the fly. This ensures that users can quickly and effortlessly tailor their massage experience without the need for complicated instructions.

In summary, the HoMedics BL-150 is a sophisticated massage device that brings professional-quality Shiatsu massage into the home environment. With its customizable settings, soothing heat function, and portable design, it caters to anyone looking to alleviate stress and promote relaxation effectively. Whether for personal use or as a thoughtful gift, the HoMedics BL-150 is an excellent choice for improving wellness and comfort in everyday life.
