Note:
If the program is changed during stimulation
(for example from A to B), the output intensity will
increase gradually in the new program until it reach-
es the inten sity that was previously set. This can be
stopped if required by pressing the intensity button
▼ [2] or by switching off the device by pressing and
holding the On/Off button [1] for two seconds.
Stopping pulses that are too strong
You can lower the intensity at any time or turn the device
off by pressing and holding the On/Off button [1] (~ 2 sec-
onds).
Setting the intensity
Press the intensity button ▲ [2] to gradually increase the
intensity or the intensity button ▼ [2] to lower the inten-
sity. There are 20 levels of intensity that can be selected.
Depending on the intensity level, you will start to feel tin-
gling, which may increase up to muscle contractions.
Select a setting that is comfortable for you during
use.
Preventing unwanted pulse changes
To prevent unintentional increases in intensity during a
treatment, simply switch the button lock on. To do this,
press and hold the program selection button P [3] for
approx. 2 seconds. An acoustic signal sounds and the
symbol "
" appears in the display [6]. To release the
button lock, press and hold the P button [3] for approx.
2 seconds.
Reacting to unpleasant sensations
If you feel a twinge or itching on your skin, you should
switch the device off and proceed as follows:
• Check that the electrodes are OK and do not show any
signs of damage.
• Check that the round cover is still on the electrode
connec tions.
• Remove the cuff and moisten it again completely.
• When you put it back on, ensure that there is good
contact with the skin and that the skin is damp.
Pausing a program
If you want to pause a program while it is running, press
the Pause button [1]. An acoustic signal sounds and the
pause symbol "II" flashes in the display [6]. The program
can be continued by pressing the button [1] again.
Contact detection
If the electrodes are not in contact with the body, the inten-
sity will automatically be set to zero. This prevents unwant-
ed electrical stimulation. The intensity cannot be increased
if the electrodes are not in contact with the body.
