Overview of the placement
of the electrodes/pads
Proper preparation of the skin that is covered by the
electrodes allows a better stimulation of the target tissue,
prolongs the life of the electrodes and reduces the risk of
skin irritation.
Prepare your skin at the spots where the electrode will be
placed as follows:
1. Determine the spots where the electrode is to be placed.
2. Wash this area with mild soap and water (do not use
alcohol). Rinse and dry carefully.
3. Trim excess body hair in this area with a pair of scissors
(do not shave).
4. Treatment of the skin with moisturising lotions or
ointments beforehand is not recommended as this
considerably increases the electrode wear and may
cause unpleasant current peaks, to supply the skin
with a protective layer. Apply, let dry and attach the
electrode as described in this manual. In this way you
decrease the risk of skin irritation and prolong the life of
your electrodes.
5. When you remove the electrodes, always pull them in
the direction of the hair growth.
6. It may be helpful to apply skin lotion to the area of the
electrode placement when you are not wearing the
electrodes.
