How to Use the Lem:
Getting the Most Out of Your Clitoral Massager
Whether you just unboxed your Lem or you're still deciding if it's the right toy for you, this guide covers everything — from your first charge to advanced techniques that 700,000+ owners have discovered.
The Lem is designed to be simple. One button. No app. No complicated menus. But a few tips can make the difference between "that was nice" and something considerably more memorable.
What's in the Box
Your Lem arrives in discreet packaging — your bank statement shows "SP Care & Bloom Nancy," nothing suggestive. Inside:
Gorgeous packaging, some lovely little tip cards on how to really set the mood including playlists, and a lovely satin protector to store it in.

Three steps before your first use:
Charge Fully
Connect the USB-C cable (or use the magnetic dock) and charge for 90 minutes until the LED shows full. The Lem may arrive partially charged, but a full initial charge ensures the complete 120-minute battery life.
Clean the Device
Rinse with warm water and mild soap, or use the included toy cleaner sample. Pat dry with a lint-free cloth. This removes any residue from manufacturing.
Learn the One Button
Press and hold (2 seconds) to power on. Short press to cycle through settings. Press and hold (2 seconds) to power off. That's the entire user manual.
Basic Controls — One Button, Total Control
No confusing app. No Bluetooth pairing. No 47 buttons. The Lem keeps it dead simple:
The little cards in the box explain how to use it — just play with the different patterns for a couple of times and you understand what's the right one for you!
★★★★★ — Elisa M., Verified BuyerThe 12 Intensity Levels Explained
The Lem offers 12 distinct settings, split into steady suction and rhythmic wave patterns. Here's what to expect at each range:
Perfect for warming up, beginners, or heightened sensitivity. Soft, consistent air-pulse sensation. Most first-timers are surprised by how effective even these low settings are.
Where the majority of users settle in. Noticeably stronger suction that's still comfortable for extended use. Levels 4 and 5 are the most popular “daily driver” settings based on thousands of reviews.
Powerful, steady suction for experienced users who want more direct stimulation. Concentrated pressure that delivers fast, strong results.
Where the Lem truly differentiates itself. Instead of steady suction, these levels deliver rhythmic pulsing that builds and releases — mimicking a more natural, wave-like sensation. Many owners say these are the most satisfying of all.
I don't even mess with a lot of the functions, even though they are great, because 3 clicks in is all I need.
★★★★★ — hal b., Verified BuyerThe important takeaway: you don't need the highest levels for an intense experience. Many owners report that lower levels with patience produce the strongest results.
Getting a Good Seal
The seal between the Lem's nozzle and your body is the single most important factor in how good it feels. Here's how to get it right:
If you're not feeling much, the issue is almost always the seal or the angle — not the power level. Try repositioning before increasing intensity.
Solo Use Tips
Here's what thousands of Lem owners have learned through experience:
Start Low, Build Slow
Begin at Level 1 and work up gradually. The lower levels create a build that many users say produces more intense results than jumping straight to high power.
Use Lubricant
Even a small amount of water-based lubricant enhances sensation significantly by improving the seal and reducing friction.
Try It in Water
The Lem is IPX7 waterproof — fully submersible up to 1 meter. The bath and shower are popular spots among owners.
Experiment with Positions
On your back, side, sitting, face down — every position changes the angle and pressure. There's no single "correct" way.
Take Breaks
Pull away if sensation becomes too intense, let it subside, then re-engage. Many users find this "edging" technique produces stronger results.
Be Patient
Your first session is a learning experience. It may take a few uses to discover your preferred level, angle, and technique. That's completely normal.
I was nervous and excited the first time. I would have to say to try it by yourself at first. That way you can find out what setting you like. Just do it. You won't regret it. I promise.
★★★★★ — Devan L., Verified BuyerCouples Use
The Lem's compact size means it genuinely doesn't get in the way during partnered intimacy. It works during missionary, doggy style, reverse cowgirl, and virtually any position where there's access to the clitoris.
Tips for couples: Start with foreplay before incorporating during intercourse. The partner holding the Lem can experiment with different angles while the receiver provides feedback. Many couples report the Lem increased both frequency and quality of intimacy.
As a couples' toy, this little beast turns bedroom time into a co-op multiplayer experience. My job is mostly "aiming and encouragement," but I've never felt more useful. It's honestly strengthened our teamwork more than any trust-fall exercise ever could.
★★★★★ — Rob H., Verified BuyerIt has increased both the amount of sex we are having, but also the quality for my wife, and that is important to me.

Cleaning & Care
Proper cleaning after every use keeps your Lem hygienic and extends its lifespan. The Lem's medical-grade silicone is non-porous — bacteria can't penetrate the surface, making it truly cleanable.

Charging
The Lem offers two charging methods — both included in the box:
The LED indicator shows charging status. Don't leave it on the charger indefinitely after full charge, and store with some charge remaining.

Troubleshooting
Press and hold for 2 full seconds — not a quick tap. If nothing happens, it needs charging. Connect via USB-C and wait at least 15 minutes before trying again. The Lem won't power on while completely drained.
This is almost always a seal issue, not a power issue. Apply water-based lubricant around the nozzle rim. Reposition the device. Try a different angle. Make sure you're not pressing too hard — light contact creates a better seal than firm pressure.
Start at Level 1. You can use it through underwear or a thin cloth if even Level 1 is too much direct contact. Some users find that positioning it slightly off-center (beside the clitoris rather than directly on it) reduces intensity while still feeling great. Sensitivity adjusts over time.
Try the USB-C cable directly (bypass the magnetic dock). Ensure the cable is fully inserted. Try a different USB port or wall adapter. If using the magnetic dock, check that contact points are clean and properly aligned. See our charging troubleshooting guide for detailed steps.
Check that the nozzle is clean and free of debris. Residue buildup inside the nozzle can affect suction performance. Clean thoroughly with warm water and mild soap, paying special attention to the inside of the nozzle opening.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many settings does the Lem have?
12 intensity levels. Levels 1–8 provide steady suction at increasing power, while Levels 9–12 deliver rhythmic wave patterns that pulse and build. Most users find their sweet spot between Level 2 and Level 5.
Can I use the Lem in the shower?
Yes. The Lem is IPX7 waterproof — fully submersible in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. It works perfectly in the shower, bath, or hot tub.
How do I charge the Lem?
Two options: USB-C cable (same as your phone) or the included magnetic charging dock. Full charge takes 90 minutes and provides 120 minutes of continuous use. See our detailed charging guide for more.
What lubricant works with the Lem?
Water-based lubricant only. Silicone-based and oil-based lubricants can damage the medical-grade silicone over time. A small amount around the nozzle rim improves both seal and sensation.
How do I clean the Lem?
Warm water and mild soap after every use. The medical-grade silicone is non-porous and fully cleanable. Air dry or pat with a lint-free cloth. Store in the included satin pouch. See our full cleaning guide.
Is the Lem good for beginners?
Absolutely. The one-button design means there's nothing complicated to learn. Start at Level 1 and work up. Many first-time toy owners say the Lem was their introduction to solo pleasure. For more guidance, see Sex Toys for Beginners.
