Do NOT use with optional electrode
pads if you have a pacemaker (or if you
have a heart rhythm problem) or with
any electronic medical devices. Using
this unit with electronic medical devices
may cause erroneous operation of the
device. Stimulation in the direct vicinity
of an implanted device may affect some
models.
Do NOT use in the first 6 weeks
following a pelvic surgery or vaginal
childbirth. Stimulation may disrupt the
healing process.
Do NOT use if you have symptoms of
active urinary tract infection, vaginal
infections,
or
localized
Introducing the probe may irritate
sensitive tissue.
Do NOT use if you have poor sensation
in the pelvic region. You may not be
able
to
control
the
stimulation safely.
WARNINGS:
Do NOT use if you are unable to
properly insert the vaginal or anal
probe. If you have a severe prolapse, or
if any discomfort occurs when inserting
the probe, consult your healthcare
professional before use.
Do NOT use when driving, operating
machinery, or similar actions needing
muscular control.
pads, damaged leads, or sudden
changes in contact may cause brief
involuntary muscle movements.
Do NOT use to mask or relieve
undiagnosed pain. This may delay
diagnosis of a progressive condition.
Do NOT use if you have, in the area
being treated: active or suspected
lesions.

cancer or undiagnosed pain with a
history of cancer. Stimulation directly
through a confirmed or suspected
malignancy should be avoided as it may
stimulate growth and promote spread of
cancer cells.
Do NOT use optional electrodes on the
front of the neck. Stimulation on the
front of the neck can affect your heart
rate or cause contraction of the throat.
Do NOT use optional electrodes across
the chest.
Very strong stimulation
across the chest may cause an extra
heartbeat and/or rhythm disturbances
to your heart, which could be lethal.
Do NOT use while simultaneously
connected to high frequency surgical
equipment as it may result in burns at
the site of stimulator electrodes and
possible damage to the stimulator.
Do NOT use Elise 2 in close proximity
(e.g. 1 m) to a shortwave or microwave
as this may produce instability in the
stimulator output.
Do NOT use electrodes near the thorax
as this may increase the risk of cardiac
fibrillation.
Do NOT use any charger other than the
one supplied. Use of other chargers
could be hazardous.
Do NOT use the device whilst charging.
CAUTIONS:
Caution should be used if you have a
bleeding disorder as stimulation may
increase blood flow to the stimulated
region.
Caution should be used if you have
suspected or diagnosed epilepsy as
electrical stimulation may affect seizure
threshold.
