Before first use of your ELVIE TRAINER EL02, please remember to:

1. Charge Elvie Trainer: See charging instructions for details.

2. Get the Elvie Trainer app: Download the app and follow the on-screen instructions.

Open the Elvie Trainer app to be guided on how to use the ELVIE TRAINER EL02 for the first time.

1. Connect Elvie Trainer

The ELVIE TRAINER EL02 connects to your phone using Bluetooth. To connect for the first time, simply squeeze it gently in your hand for 3 seconds.

2. Insert Elvie Trainer

The ELVIE TRAINER EL02 is easy to insert. The pebble-shaped part goes into your vagina and the tail remains outside, facing forward. Be sure to fully insert the pebble-shaped part, but not too high up. If you pull down gently, you will feel slight resistance against the vaginal opening. If it feels uncomfortable, try using some water-based lubricant.

3. Find the right fit

Many women prefer to use the optional cover to prevent the ELVIE TRAINER EL02 from falling out or moving about inside. Try with and without the cover to see what feels best. Thread the tail through the small hole in the cover and pull over the trainer. Always remember to take the cover off when charging.

4. Start by lying down

This relaxes the muscles in your thighs, buttocks, and tummy, allowing you to focus on your pelvic floor muscles. Lie down with your legs slightly apart and hold your phone by your tummy. For the best results, start in a lying position for your isolated exercises and keep exercising in the same position. When you feel confident, you can try exercising while standing or sitting.

The pelvic floor is a set of muscles that stretches like a hammock between your pubic bone and tailbone. If you aren’t sure what it feels like to exercise your pelvic floor, imagine that you are trying to stop yourself peeing mid-flow. This muscle movement, lifting inwards and upwards, is what you need to master.

When exercising with the ELVIE TRAINER EL02, remember to:

• Make sure your stomach, buttocks, and thighs remain relaxed and try not to hold your breath.

• Take a deep breath to relax, and as you breathe out, squeeze your pelvic floor inwards and upwards.

• The Elvie Trainer app provides more guidance during your workouts. Tap the help icon in the top left-hand corner for information on how to perfect your exercise technique.

The ELVIE TRAINER EL02 works best when it can connect easily with your phone. This means not obscuring the tail too much (for example, by crossing your legs). Try to keep your legs open when exercising and your phone in the line of sight with the trainer.

At the beginning of each exercise, gently squeeze your ELVIE TRAINER EL02 so that it starts searching for your phone. It can take up to 30 seconds to connect.

If the ELVIE TRAINER EL02 disconnects during an exercise, it should reconnect automatically. If it doesn’t, please follow the on-screen instructions, remembering to squeeze the trainer for at least 3 seconds when trying to connect.
