(Cont.)
PRECAUTIONS (CONT.):
• Use only with the lead wires and electrodes recommended for use by
the manufacturer.
• Portable stimulators should not be used while driving, operating machinery,
or during any activity in which involuntary muscle contractions may put the
user at undue risk of injury.
• Do not trim electrodes as cut edges may affect even distribution of
stimulation.
• Do not immerse electrodes in water.
• Electronic monitoring equipment (such as ECG monitors and ECG alarms)
may not operate properly when the Avid IF2 is in use.
• Wireless communications equipment such as wireless home network
devices, mobile phones, cordless telephones and their base stations,
walkie-talkies can affect the Avid IF2 and should be kept at least 1 (one)
meter away from the equipment. In addition, the presence of RFID and
security systems (e.g., electromagnetic anti-theft systems, and metal
detectors) might interfere with the operation of the Avid IF2 stimulator.
ADVERSE REACTIONS:
Skin irritation and burns beneath the electrodes have occasionally been
reported with the use of electrical stimulators.
If you experience any symptoms of skin irritation or any unusual reactions while
using the Avid IF2, discontinue use immediately and contact VQ OrthoCare's
