Instructions for use
For the desired success of any stimulation (TENS/EMS), it is important that electrode pads are placed sensibly. Leave 5-15 cm between the 2 electrode pads on a channel.
Note: The electrode pads must always be used in pairs (two electrode pads on each ch annel), so that the signal can flow in a circuit.
-
Before use make sure your skin is clean and dry.
Do not place electrode pads on skin, which does not have normal sensation or on broken skin. -
Push the pin ends of the lead wires firmly into the pigtail ends of the electrode pads.
-
Peel the electrode pads from their protective plastic shield by holding and lifting one corner of the pad and pulling.
Do not pull on the pigtail wire of the pad.
Always check that the unit is OFF before applying or removing electrode pads. -
Apply the adhesive side of the electrode pads around the area of pain and firmly press it to the skin. See examples of positioning in the placement guide enclosed.

Remove the electrode pads from your skin by holding the pad itself and gently pulling.

After use always replace the electrode pads on the plastic liner and replace them in the re-sealable plastic bag.
