INTEND USE
The removal of the head lice and their eggs (nits) from hair.
HOW IT WORKS
• It has been specially designed to generate an electric charge of 160-250V , which immediately zaps lice when contact, but imperceptible to humans and completely safe to use.
• The electric lice comb is powered by two AAA batteries 1.5 V which generates 80-250V.
• The integrated circuit in the comb generates a periodic oscillating square wave when lice contact with teeth of the comb.
• The electrical discharge is triggered automatically, and lice are destroyed on the spot.
• The low current generated by the battery of 1.5 V ensures the complete safety of electric comb for use on people.
• Totally painless and safe for hair and scalp.
• Low energy consumption.
• Efficient and easy to use, especially ideal for use on young children and those with sensitive scalp.
• Since there is no active substance involved in the use of comb, it may be used several times and as often as necessary.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EFFECTIVE USE
• You must use the comb only on dry hair.
• Ensure that the electric comb does not get humid or wet during use.
• We recommend that you use a repellent treatment (cream, shampoo, etc.) after using the electric comb, in order to avoid a new outbreak.

INTRODUCTION
Head lice are tiny, wingless insects. When fully grown, they’re similar in size to a sesame seed.
Because they can’t survive the cold, they cling to our hair, keeping close to the warmth of our heads.
Head lice are harmless – though they can cause your children to get an itchy scalp. Head lice have been making a nuisance of themselves for thousands of years. Fortunately, getting rid of them nowadays need only take a ten minutes treatment time!
Gima electric lice comb is one viable option to consider in the quest of eradicating head lice so they will stop spreading through your family member’s hair and scalp. It is certainly no secret that an infestation of lice can make life difficult for everyone in the household, but thanks to modern technology -- an electric lice comb, the process of getting rid of these pests can be just a lot easier.
SPECIAL FEATURES
Gima lice comb uniquely can not only dispel but also efficiently kill head lice and nits by quickly, increasing electrical voltage of 160~250 Volts, which is harmless to human.
Comb activity is indicated by an audible signal, which provides different sounds: one sound per three seconds indicates the functional unit (80-140V); the short, sharp beep three times in a second indicates the contact with the intruder (160-250V).
