    • If the swiping motion does not cover the entire length of the screen, pause mode will not be activated.
  2. To resume the experience, swipe UP across entire Touch Screen and wait for the preheating. Vibration and Light Guide will indicate Holder is ready to resume use.
    • Pause can last up to 8 minutes. If experience is not resumed, the Holder will automatically switch off.
