The instruction confuses me because it says don't leave on for more than 15 seconds the first week of purchase. I'm tall I need more time! :(

Just lather rub in than rinse off, that's what I did week 1 I have very sensitive skin your skin will eventually become more tolerant.

If your in a shower setting you can just rinse off the product a the same time that your apply it.

I view this more as a "suggestion" because many may have delicate skin that will get agitated by the soap if it's their first time using this type of product. I've personally used harsher whitening soap so I was pleasantly surprised by the gentleness (in comparison to others). I personally keep mine on for about 2 mins after ive lathered my whole body, so no worries if it takes you longer just be aware of how your body reacts :)

The instruction booklet states that the light only stays on for 72 seconds. Definitely NOT long enough!!

I enter the time, but I saw that my daughter just hit start.... maybe there's an automatic setting of 1 minute. We'll have to go back and read the manual, you and I !!!

That depends on how long it's been on. It will go off after 8 or so hours. But if it happens right when you put it on and it doesn't heat in about 1/2 hour or so, call Amazon and see about returning it for one that works. Mine goes on and I put it where I want it set and it stays there for approximately 8 or so hours. I can turn it down or up when I feel that is needed.

it's designed to stay on 2 or 4 hrs. or you can set it to stay on~~that's what i do ~~ #2. use the leftside of the remote~1 click gets you # 8 , then l,then #2 (you can go higher, but i don;t think that's safe when sleeping )~~then on right side ,click #s until it says 4-stay on ~then go back to left side ~press & you get a 2. i know it sounds complicated, but it reallt isn't. i'm sure the directions that come with iy will be clearer than mine good luck~it really is a nice pad ! grace

More info: I used it again, but this time I timed it. I guess "time passes quickly when you're having fun," because it actually took a full 10 minutes! Not your 15 but maybe yours is OK. You may have a different make. No idea why I gave the prior answers of 2 -3 minutes and 5. Sorry.

Time duration is not adjustable. It says on for about 30 seconds after any motion has stopped.

It recommends not more than 20 minutes at a time. It doesn't get too hot though so it's comfortable to use for longer periods.

I have never had any problems like this before. Although the instructions state to turn the unit off for 15-30 minutes before touching it.

I let it run through the 15 min. cycle with heat. It will start right back up if I want it to. Honestly, 15 min. is enough....this thing isn't for pansies. ;)

You have to stand still for about five to seven seconds so the number 'locks' in. Movement of numbers is normal until it 'locks' in the weight. If it is not showing your weight in a reasonsble amount of time (within 10 seconds) then I would say it is probably not working correctly.

I usually have mine on for 15 - 20 minutes at a time. I use it about 3 times a week. I have used the current one for at least 2 months.

The instructions come with some sort of suggested time frame to use, like 20 minutes a day (or maybe even more). The one thing that IS notably odd, is that it suggests you set it something like 12 inches (not sure on the length again) from your face. This didn't originally sound too odd, until you get it and realize how close that is. So I set it on bedside table and wake up with it. Feel sure I don't make the 12-inch mark! I have taken it to work a couple of times, and seems to make me feel a little better, but think I do better using it at home before work. My job is in a dark monitoring room and third shift - I am one step away from being a mushroom! It IS a little brighter than I thought. In a cube it may look like your having a Close Encounter experience!

I have never messed with that. It's been my experience that it is defaulted from the factory set is 2hrs. I do use the timer for waking up in the morning. Maybe that is where it defaults to 2hrs keeping it warm.

Dear Sue,Thanks for your mesage. The "120 seconds in measurement" does not mean must be measured 2 minutes. Usually you just measure 50-60 seconds. But when you measure 120 seconds, it is more accurate. This time the temperature degree is closer to your actual body temperature.Please let me know if you have any question or need any additional information. Thank you!Best regards,Wimpy Kid

I have not used it for longer than four minutes. There is no warning for a short setting. I love the timer for my use . . timing eye drops twice a day.

Whenever it is on, there is hot steam coming through the bottom, so it's probably not a good idea to let it sit in one spot on the floor for too long. I think the maximum time is 30 seconds (it gives the exact time in the instructions). To prevent any floor damage, I would lean it against something at an angle so the pad is not flat on the floor surface. Or unplug it, which turns it off. Good luck!
