TENS
Only use original accessories from the manufacturer for
your device.
Do not use this device for undiagnosed pain symptoms until
consulting a physician.
Patients with an implanted electronic device, such as a
cardiac pacemaker, implanted defibrillator, or any other me-
tallic or electronic device should not undergo TENS treatment
without first consulting a doctor.
Patients with heart disease, epilepsy, cancer, fever or any
other health condition should not undergo TENS treatment
without first consulting a physician.
Stimulation delivered by this device may be sufficient to
cause electrocution. Electrical current of this magnitude must
not flow through the thorax or across the chest because it
may cause a cardiac arrhythmia.
Do not place electrodes
above the heart!
Do not place electrodes on the front of the throat as spasm
of the Laryngeal and Pharyngeal muscle may occur. Stimula-
tion over the carotid sinus (neck region) may close the air-
ways, make breathing difficult, and may have adverse effects
on the heart rhythm or blood pressure.
Do not place electrodes on your head or at any sites that
may cause the electrical current to flow transcerebrally
(through the head).
This device should not be used while driving, operating ma-
chinery, close to water, or during any activity in which invol-
untary muscle contractions may put the user at undue risk of
injury.
