12. FAVOURITES PROGRAM
With the favourites program, you can define a favourite from the 70 TENS/EMS/
MASSAGE programs.
This makes it easier and quicker for you to access your favourite program.
If you have set a favourite program, when you switch on the device the favourite
program will be automatically accessed and started. You can then start stimu-
lation directly in your favourite program. A heart
you are in the favourite program.
The choice of favourite program may be based on your personal preference or,
for example, the advice of your doctor.
Setting the favourite program
1. Select your preferred program from the 70 programs and the corresponding
settings as described in the "Starting use" section.
2. To set the selected program as a favourite, press and hold the
for 5 seconds.
3. The saving of the favourite program is confirmed by a long acoustic signal.
The
symbol also appears on the display. This shows you that you are in
the favourite program. When the device is switched on again, your favourite
program is accessed directly.
Now you can no longer change to a different program. To access the
other programs again, you must delete your favourite program (see
the following section).
Deleting favourite program

13. THERAPY MEMORY
Your device records the treatment time in the therapy memory. This allows you
to record how long you have been using the device in total or for a specific
period of time for your treatments. This may be helpful when consulting your
doctor.

Accessing the therapy memory
To access the therapy memory, switch the device on using the ON/OFF button
and press and hold the
button for 3 seconds.
The elapsed treatment time appears in the display. The top two numbers stand
for hours; the minutes are shown below.
Resetting the therapy memory
To reset the treatment time memory (therapy memory) to

Press the Menu button to return to selecting a program, or switch the device
off using the ON/OFF button.
The treatment time memory cannot be accessed if a favourite program
is activated.
14. ELECTRIC CURRENT PARAMETERS
Electrostimulation devices operate with the following electrical current param-
eters, which may affect the stimulation results differently depending on the
setting:
14.1 Pulse shape
This describes the time function of the stimulating cur-
rent.
A distinction is made between monophasic and biphasic
pulse currents. In monophasic pulse currents the current
flows in one direction, and in biphasic pulse currents the
electrical pulse alternates its direction.
/
The Digital TENS/EMS device only provides biphasic
pulse currents as these relieve muscles, cause little muscle fatigue and offer
safer use.
14.2 Pulse frequency
The frequency indicates the number of individual pulses
per second and is displayed in Hz (Hertz). It can be calcu-
lated by determining the cyclic value for the time period.
The relevant frequency determines which types of muscle fibres react most
favourably. Slow-reaction fibres react more easily to lower pulse frequencies
of up to 15 Hz, whereas rapid-reaction fibres only respond from approximately
35 Hz up.
