3.3. ATTACHMENTS
The disk attachment and ball attachment can be easily replaced. Unscrew the
attachment counter-clockwise to remove it or turn it clockwise to tighten it.
4. APPLICATIONS & USE
The NOVAFON sound wave devices can be used directly on the skin or
through fabric/clothing. Guide the device slowly over the affected area
in circular or sweeping motion. However, you can also use the device
selectively, e.g. on a specific pain centre. Please note that you should
only guide the appliance with its own weight over the affected area and
should not apply any additional pressure as this will reduce the effect.
This is the only way the penetration depth effect of the NOVAFON can
be fully deployed and the vibrations are transmitted optimally. Please do
not use the unit for more than 20 minutes at a time, and switch it off for
at least 15 minutes to prevent overheating. When applied to sensitive
areas (e.g. face, neck, head) or severely painful body parts, the duration
of application duration should be reduced and adjusted to accommodate
the individual needs. The application should feel pleasant and relaxing at
all times. Stop the application or change the position of the sound wave
device if you feel the treatment is painful or unpleasant.
NOTE
Use of liniments: Apply creams, ointments or cosmetic liniments only in
a thin layer to the skin or place a thin cloth between the device and the
skin. To prevent damage, ensure that fluids or residues cannot seep into
the device.
