Short instructions
Apply the electrodes to both thights like shown in the two photos.
Figure 3 Electrode placement
First, wet the conductive rubber electrodes with Aloe contact spray.
Apply one electrode (80 x 120) each to the thigh just above the knee and fix each
electrode with a velcro band.
Apply one electrode (80 x 120) each to the thigh just below the groin and fix each
electrode with a velcro band.
The electrodes above the knee must be connected with the black connectors of the
distribution cable.
The electrodes below the groin must be connected with the white connectors of the
distribution cable.
Start the unit with the main switch. „Adjust the intensity until you get a muscle
contraction“ appears on the display.
Increase the intensity until you can see a visible muscle contraction on the thigh
(Maybe some rotations clockwise, 5 is a normal value) A typical value for the
current is 150 – 200 mA.
The therapy is now started.
During the therapy the intensity can be changed. It is recommendable to do the
adjustment in the active phase (during the contraction).
At the end of the therapy, the current to the patient will be automatically reduced to
zero.
