• Carry out the first few minutes of treatment while sitting or lying down, so that if you experience a rare vasovagal reaction (i.e.,
you feel faint) then you are not at unnecessary risk of injury. If you start to feel faint, shut off the unit immediately and elevate
your legs for approximately 5 – 10 minutes.
CAUTION
• An effective session should not cause discomfort. Do not overexert yourself while using the device. Any session should be at
a comfortable level for you.
• For first time users, muscle stimulation can be an unusual sensation. It is recommended to begin in a seated position with low
stimulation intensity settings to familiarize yourself with the sensation before progressing to higher intensity settings.
• Always pull firmly on electrodes to remove them from the skin to prevent injuries in the unusual case of highly sensitive skin.
• The device is suitable for self-treatment.
• If 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). This increases the current intensity, which is potentially hazardous (max.
recommended output value for the electrodes is 9 mA/cm², an effective current intensity beyond 2 mA/cm² requires increased
awareness).
• Make sure not to confuse the electrode cables including contacts with your headphones or other devices and do not connect
the electrodes to other devices.
• Do not use in the vicinity of highly flammable substances, gases or explosives.
• Treatment of the skin with moisturizing lotions or ointments beforehand is not recommended as this considerably increases
the electrode wear and may cause unpleasant current peaks.
• This device is not intended for use by children or people with restricted physical, sensory (e.g. reduced sensitivity to pain) or
mental skills or a lack of experience and/or lack of knowledge, unless they are supervised by a person who is responsible for
their safety or are instructed by such a person in how to use the device.
• If the adhesive capability of the adhesive electrodes decreases, please replace them immediately. Only use the device again
with new adhesive electrodes. Otherwise the unequal adhesion of the adhesive electrodes may lead to skin injuries. Replace
the electrodes with new ones after having used them 20 times at the latest.
• In order to perform the effectiveness of function by the device, do not drop the device or disassemble the device.
• In rare instances, skin irritation in the region of the electrodes may occur.
• For hygienic reasons, use the device only on one person.
• Do not use the product in a bathroom or a moist environment.
