The elastic straps can be washed in a washing machine. Please observe the washing instructions of the
instruction label.
2.1.2 Cleaning the Electrodes
You can clean the rubber electrodes after a treatment with some warm water (appr. 40°C) and a soap suds on
the conductive (black) side. Dry the electrodes with a cleaning cloth or let them air-dry. The cleaning process
removes the film left by the Aloe spray or the contact spray and the electrodes will regain a good
conductivity.

Note!
The conductivity of the electrodes is optimized by the use of a certain amount of graphite.
Consequently, when using and cleaning the electrodes, black color may come off.
