CEFALY Enhanced Quick

Start Guide
Welcome to the CEFALY community! Use this as a guide for your first treatment session, but remember, these are just highlights. Be sure to read the full user manual before your first treatment as well.

First Things First
1. Fully charge device until indicator light turns green (yellow = low battery)
2. Wash & dry forehead just above eyebrows
3. Position electrode & attach device

Starting Your Session Select & confirm a treatment program as follows:	ACUTE Program	PREVENT Program

Find Your Sweet SpotFollow these instructions to set your preferred intensity level:
Intensity for both programs ramps up gradually before reaching full intensity at 14 min.

During the first 14 minutes of either treatment as intensity increases, press the device button 1X to stabilize the intensitylevel for the remainder of the session. To ramp up intensity faster during the first 14 min, press & hold button. This is more applicable for experienced CEFALY users. To end treatment early, simply pull device off electrode.

During treatment, you may feel a tingling sensation. This is caused by tiny electrical impulses designed to stimulate the trigeminal nerve. Using your CEFALY device should never be painful.
When new to CEFALY, aim to use the device at the highest intensity level that’s comfortable for you. You do not need to treat at maximum intensity and you can increase intensity during future sessions when you feel ready.

Electrode Care

Proper care of your CEFALY electrodes is key to maximizing the number of treatments each can help perform. Follow these guidelines:

Because our fingers have natural oils that reduce the effectiveness of the gel pad, we suggest holding electrode pads by the edge.=
Be sure you’re thoroughly washing and drying your forehead before each treatment session. Use basic soap, avoiding alcohol wipes and facial cleansers.
During active treatment, avoid excessive movement if possible.
When you remove an electrode after a treatment, immediately replace it on the plastic backing, adhesive side down. Then seal it in the Resealable Electrode Bag.
