Kelley CEO 5 PRODUCT FEATURES AND BENEFITS Tiny microscopic organisms are all around you, in the air you breathe, and especially in the socks and shoes you wear daily. According to recent studies at the University of Arizona where researchers tested people’s shoes, some interesting facts came to light: • They found 9 different species of bacteria of the type that can cause infections in the stomach, eyes and lungs. • They found that bacteria lives longer on the soles of shoes than in other places. This is because as we walk we constantly pick up new debris that feeds the growth of more bacteria. • They found that children under 2 are most vulnerable to these bacteria because they play on the floor and put their hands and other objects in their mouths an average of 80 times an hour. • They found that the majority of bacteria contained coliform that comes mostly from human and animal waste. Why Do Your Feet/Shoes Stink? Blame it on the bacteria. They normally inhabit your feet and crave dark, damp places such as the insides of sweaty shoes where there is no fresh air. They quickly multiply in heat and sweat conditions, and not wearing socks multiplies them exponentially. Under perfect conditions, bacteria colonies will take over your feet. Bacteria inhabitants, inside your dirty socks and/or shoes, eat dead skin cells and oils from your skin. The colonies grow rapidly and get rid of waste in the form of organic acids. It's those organic acids that smell so bad. Some people’s feet smell worse than others because they sweat more profusely. If you’re one of the unlucky, your feet are home to naughty bacteria called Micrococcus sedentarius that produce more than just stinky organic acids — they also produce stuff called volatile sulfur compounds. Sulfur compounds are awful smelling (like a rotten egg), and they make you stand out in a crowd (wrong kind of attention). 6 UV Total Recovery Is Your BFF!

Icon/Picture / Illustration Features 2 Shoe sterilizer and sanitizer inserts (1 pair) Benefits UV and ozone sterilization double action (5 watt UV lamp with ozone) This device offers the most powerful and effective way to sterilize and sanitize household items. Ozone also has the ability to kill bacteria, viruses and odors. IR sensor detects human heat movement within 1 meter (will pause UV lamp for 10 seconds) when 10 seconds has passed and human heat movement is no longer detected, the lamp will resume its function and continue the remaining time left to sterilize. Post 15 min of work, the device will auto shut off. IR sensor is one of the 2 safety features to prevent UV light exposure to eyes. On/Off Switch Automatic timer that sets and turns on and off. Stops device and resets timer for 15 minutes.

Step 2: Plug the power supply into an outlet (AC 100V/240V); red light will come ON, noticeable on the adapter. L Step 3: Insert Right UV device into a right shoe and Left UV device into a left shoe. • • • Situation: If your device doesn’t turn off: • The device will only run a full cycle of 15 minutes, if there is no human heat or any heat source detected within one meter (3.5 feet). • Unplug the device and call 1.888.689.6687 for technical assistance. Situation: If during the course of normal operation one of the insert lamps shuts off while the other continues to run: R Step 4: Place your shoes inside the UV proof protector bags. Close the bags securely. • lights showing No Step 5: Push ON/OFF button to start the device (device will start automatically after a minute) • • lights showing off Step 6: Wait 15 minutes until the UV Total Recovery shoe sterilizer and sanitizer is finished before removing. The ON/OFF light must be in the off position (no lights showing). 9 Make sure there is no heat source or moving human within 1 meter (3.5 feet) of the device. Stay clear of the device (3.5 feet). Check if it’s plugged in properly and the light on AC adapter is ON. If you checked these steps and your device is still not on, please call 1.888.689.6687 for technical assistance. • As each shoe sterilizer insert has its own infrared sensor, it is possible for only one insert to sense movement or heat, temporarily pausing operation, while the other insert is unaffected. This is perfectly normal. The paused insert lamp will resume its 15 minute cycle once the heat/movement no longer exists. When this occurs, one insert will complete its 15 minute cycle before the other. Check to make sure there is no heat source or moving human within 1 meter (3.5 feet) of the device. Once removed, the insert lamp that is off should resume operation. Do not push the ON/OFF switch while one insert lamp is running and the other is not. This will cause the two shoe inserts to be out of sync and will shut off the lamp that is on and attempt to turn on the lamp that is off. If this occurs, to bring the two inserts back into sync simply unplug the power supply from the outlet. Wait a few moments, then plug the device back in and push the ON/OFF switch to begin normal operation. If the problem persists, and the lamp is not damaged or burnt out, call 1.888.689.6687 for technical assistance. 10 Warranty Information LIMITED WARRANTY UV Total Recovery Technologies, Inc.
