PRecAutIONS
• Always pull gently on the electrodes and cable to remove them from the skin to
prevent injuries in the unusual case of highly-sensitive skin.
• Do not expose the electrodes and cable to direct sunlight or high temperatures.
• For hygiene reasons, the electrodes may only be used on one person.
• Switch off the device or the respective channel first before removing or relocating
the electrodes to prevent unintentional stimulation.
• Do not modify the electrodes (e.g. by cutting them). This increases the current in-
tensity, 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).
• Ensure that no metallic objects (e.g. belt buckles or necklaces) come into contact
with the electrodes during stimulation. If you are wearing jewellery or have piercings
in the area to be treated (e.g. a navel piercing), these must be removed before using
the device. Failure to do so could result in spot burns.
• Keep the electrodes and cable away from children.
• Make sure not to confuse the electrode cables including contacts with your head-
phones or other devices and do not connect the electrodes to other devices.
• Do not use the EMS device while using other devices that transmit electrical im-
pulses into your body.
