*The frequency
The frequency determines how often an electri-
cal pulse occurs within a certain period of time.
In turn, this determines how often individual
muscle fibres contract. You cannot change this
value in the Antelope programs.
*The pulse length (pulse duration)
The pulse length or pulse duration denotes the
time during which electrical pulses flow into the
muscles. The longer this time is, the more inten-
sively and deeply the muscles will be trained.
*Duty cycle
The stimulation interval, also known as the duty
cycle, determines the ratio between the stimu-
lation phases and pauses during a training ses-
sion. Some EMS programs require these pauses
for your muscles.
Programs with a duty cycle
Some programs require a stimulation interval.
This could be as follows:
Example: You select a program with the duty
cycle "4 sec ON, 4 sec OFF". As such, it will run
at a repeating interval of four seconds of stimu-
lation and four seconds of pause.

Programs without a duty cycle
Some programs do not have a duty cycle. In
such cases, your muscles will be continuously
stimulated.

9. CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
• Always remove the batteries from the device
before cleaning.
• Clean the device with a slightly damp cloth.
If it is very dirty, you can also moisten the
cloth with a mild soapy solution.
• Do not drop the device.
• Ensure that no water enters the device. If
this happens, only use the device again once
it has fully dried out.
• Do not use any chemical or abrasive clean-
ing agents for cleaning.
• The belt is not machine-washable. Once
you have removed the device (control unit)
from the belt, you can wipe down the belt
with lukewarm water. Use a mild soapy solu-
tion or liquid detergent for this. Do not use
bleach.
