(2) Clean the skin prior to any application; do not use skincare
lotions or oils prior to treatment. Shaving may increase the life of
electrodes.
There is no noticeable stimulation. How to proceed?
(1) Press the ON/OFF button to interrupt the program. Check that
the connection cables are correctly connected to the electrodes.
Ensure that the electrodes are in firm contact with the treatment
area.
(2) Ensure the connection plug is firmly connected to the device.
(3) Press the ON/OFF button to restart the program.
(4) Check electrode positions and ensure that the adhesive
electrodes do not overlap.
(5) Gradually increase the impulse intensity.
(6) The battery is flat; please charge it.
The battery symbol is shown. How to proceed?
Charge the device, following the instructions from section 4.
You are experiencing an unpleasant sensation at the electrodes.
How to proceed?
(1) The electrodes are not positioned correctly. Check their positions
and re-position, if necessary.
(2) The gel pads are worn. This may cause irritated skin, as even
distribution of the current across the entire area is no longer
guaranteed. For this reason, the electrodes should be replaced.
Skin in the treatment area turns red. How to proceed?
Immediately stop treatment and wait until your skin has returned
to its normal condition. If the redness is under the electrode and
disappears quickly, there is no risk – this is caused by the locally
stimulated, increased blood flow.
However, consult your doctor before you continue treatment if the
skin irritation persists and if it is accompanied by an itchy sensation
or inflammation. This may be caused by an allergic reaction to the
adhesive surface.
The device is getting too hot. How to proceed?
Switch to the lower heat level or switch the heat function off entirely.
