Congratulations and thank you for being a customer of Pretika! Before you start, please take a moment to get to know your OxySonic by carefully reading the Operating Instructions and Warranty Information included with your new product.
OxySonic® Facial Brush Features
Using OxySonic® Daily Treatment Use daily to remove the Epidermal (outer) layer of dry and flaky skin cells and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles so your skin feels smoother. Gentle enough for use as part of your daily beauty routine. Helps reduce appearance of pores, oily areas, dry skin patches and blemishes and prepares the skin to better absorb skin care treatments. Works great for removing makeup too! Your OxySonic can be used as a Facial Brush Only, a Facial Cleansing and Hydrating Sauna using the Oxygenated Hot or Cool mists only or use both features together to Exfoliate, Cleanse and Hydrate the skin – pore by pore. The OxySonic can be used separately or in combination with your daily skin care treatments. Hot Oxygenated Mist open pores to help extract impurities and help make skin healthier, smoother, glowing and vibrant. Cool Oxygenated Mist can increase the skin’s absorbance of skin care products, increase tightness of skin, close pores and help to smooth and reduce wrinkles. Oxygenated Mist helps oxygenate the fresh new skin cells exposed on the skins’ surface after exfoliation.

OxySonic® Unit
Micro-Fiber Bristle Brush Heads – Attach and Remove
1. Do not use abrasive cleaners or chemi- cals to clean any part of the OxySonic. 2. Clean handle with damp cloth– using mild detergent or warm water and towel dry immediately. 3. On first use, wash water tank thoroughly. 4. After each use, remove Brush Head, drain out remaining water in tank, set the handle in compartment and keep tube in vertical position. 5. Unplug the Power Adaptor from the OxySonic unit before you clean using mild detergent or warm water and towel dry immediately. 6. Do Not bend the hose– maintain in upward or straight position during operation. If the hose does become bent, it may restrict the Oxygenated Mist Flow. If this occurs, simply hold the Facial Brush handle straight-up in the air to restore Oxygenated Mist Flow.
To attach Brush Head, align “arrow” marks on the Brush Head to corresponding marks on Facial Brush handle. See illustration. Press from sides of the Brush Head and push down until it snaps into place. To remove the Brush Head, simply grip the outer plastic sides of the Brush Head Applicator firmly in one hand and the facial brush handle in the other hand– then pull-out evenly.
Caring For Your OxySonic® Facial Brush Micro-Fiber Bristle Brush Heads 1. Clean Brush Heads after every use. Remove Brush Heads, rinse clean with warm water and mild soap to remove any build-up that may have accumulated, shake off excess water and towel dry – or gently rub the Brush Head against a towel for 5-10 seconds. Do not attach wet brush heads to handle. 2. Do not allow liquid cleansers or moisturizers to accumulate on Brush Heads or in the Oxygenated Mist Flow opening in the center of the brush applicator. 3. Unplug the power adaptor from unit before you clean.

Monthly Cleaning 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
Before cleaning, make sure unit is unplugged and cool. To clean base: if there is buildup on water groove, scrub off. After clean- ing, refill water tank 2/3 full, shake water tank and then open the cap to drain water. Repeat 3 or 4 times. Turn base over connect tube and handle several times until all the water comes out, repeat 3-4 times. Put handle back into holder. Keep the connecting tube upward. Plug in the unit, turn on Warm mist and try inside for 10 minutes, turn power off. BE CAREFUL NOT TO HAVE DRAIN- ING WATER FALL INTO CONTROLS OR VENT OPENINGS. DO NOT drain in any manner other than indicated. WARNING: DO NOT place directly under running faucet. Pour about 1 cup of white vinegar into water tank and allow it to soak for only 20 to 30 minutes. Remove any buildup of minerals in the water tank using a small brush, such as a toothbrush. NOTE: The buildup is due to water hardness. The harder your water, the more often this maintenance will be needed. Be careful not to use any metal blade on any plastic parts.
DO NOT PLACE ON WET SURFACE 8. 9.
Disinfect the water tank using a solution of one teaspoon of house hold chlorine bleach in 1 gallon of water. Let the solution sit for 20 min- utes, swishing every few minutes to wet all surfaces. Empty the tank completely; rinse thoroughly until all of the bleach smell is gone. Fill the tank with fresh, cool water (or dis- tilled water) and replace inside OxySonic base. NEVER use any metal or hard ob-
jects to clean plastic parts which may cause scratching of the plastic parts. 10. Each day the reservoirs and tanks should be drained, rinsed and refilled Distilled water or with fresh tap water. 11. To clean exterior surfaces, use a solution of water and mild detergent with a wrung-out damp cloth. Rinse and wring out the cloth and wipe the exterior surfaces again. Finally, wipe with a dry cloth. Allow sufficient time to dry before plugging the electrical cord into the outlet. 12. After base is totally cleaned and dried, plug in the unit and resume normal use.

Storage Tips
31. DO NOT move or tilt OxySonic while it is operating. 32. The OxySonic should not be left unattended in a closed room with the Oxygenated Mist Flow feature in the ON mode since air could become saturated and leave condensation on walls or furniture. 33. This product has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other) as a safety feature. This plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature. 34. Caution: To avoid the risk of fire, shock or personal injury, do not use an extension cord. 35. Do not add any medications to the Water Tank. Do not cover, or insert objects into, any openings on the unit. 36. Do not leave water in the base reser voir for long periods between use. Water contains minerals and other particles. During operation most of these minerals will remain in the water reservoir. Gradual buildup of deposits will coat the hot water reservoir and reduce its efficiency. The importance of routine cleaning and care can not be over-empha- sized. Hard water contains more minerals and other particles.
If you do not plan to use your OxySonic for an extended period of time it is important that you follow these instructions to help prevent problems from developing in the unit. 1. Clean your OxySonic as instructed in the section title Cleaning and Main- tenance. 2. Make sure all water is emptied from the tanks and the hot and cold water reservoirs. 3. Dry your unit thoroughly. 4. Leave the tank cap off to expose the tank to air. 5. Pack your OxySonic in its original carton and store it in a cool, dry place.
