the skin to prevent injuries in the unusual case of highly
sensitive skin.
• Keep the device away from sources of heat and do not
use it in close proximity (approx. 1 m) to shortwave or
microwave devices (e.g. mobile phones); doing so can
result in unpleasant current peaks.
• Do not expose the device to direct sunlight or high
temperatures.
• Protect the device from dust, dirt and humidity.
• Never immerse the device in water or other liquids.
• The device is suitable for self-treatment.
• For hygiene reasons, the electrodes may only be used
on one person.
• If the device does not work properly, or you feel unwell
or experience pain, stop using it immediately.
• Switch off the unit or the respective channel first
before removing or relocating electrodes to prevent
unintentional stimulation.
• Do not modify electrodes (e.g. by cutting them).
• Do not use the device whilst asleep, driving a vehicle or
operating machinery.
• Do not use whilst undertaking any activity where an
unexpected reaction (e.g. strong muscle contractions
even at low intensity) could be dangerous.
• Ensure that no metallic objects (e.g. belt buckles or
necklaces) come into contact with the electrodes
during stimulation. If you are wearing jewellery or have
piercings in the area to be treated (e.g. a navel piercing),
these must be removed before using the device. Failure
to do so could result in spot burns.
• Keep the device away from children.
• Do not entangle the electrode cables (including
contacts) with headphones or other devices; do not
connect the electrodes to other devices.
• Do not use the device whilst using other devices that
transmit electrical impulses into your body.
• Do not use in the vicinity of highly flammable
substances, gases or explosives.
• Do not use rechargeable batteries; always use the same
battery types.
• During the initial few minutes, use the device while
sitting or lying down in order to minimise the risk of
injuries as a consequence of isolated cases of vagal
responses (feeling of faintness). If you feel faint,
