outlet. Use of the Ultimate Contour in abnormally hot or cold temperatures should be avoided. Refer to 

Section 9.1 for the preferred operating temperature. If the unit has been stored or transported in extreme 

conditions, allow time for the unit to acclimate to room temperature before turning it on and using it.

Ensure that the treatment table the patient will be on has no exposed metal surfaces that the patient may 

come in contact with during the treatment.

 

4.2 Device Unpacking and Setup

When removing the Ultimate Contour unit and accessories, take care to avoid scratching or damaging any 

of the components. 

•  Remove the Ultimate Contour unit from its packaging, and stand the unit upright on a sturdy table or 

countertop surface. 

•  Remove the handpieces from the packaging and place these in proximity to the unit. Take care not to 

twist the transducer cable or bend it in a tight loop.

•  Remove the power cord from the packaging. Plug the power cord into the back of the unit. Make sure 

the power switch on the back of the unit is turned OFF (press on the “O” symbol). Locate a suitable 

power outlet as described in Section 4.1 above and plug in the power cord. Make sure the unit is posi-

tioned so that the power cord may be easily disconnected if needed.

•  If needed, clean the unit and handpieces as described in Section 6.

4.3 Registration

Before beginning use of the Ultimate Contour, it is highly recommended that you take a moment to 

register at

 

www.ultimate-contour.com. Registration facilitates customer service, provides additional infor-

mation regarding the use of the Ultimate Contour, managing patient expectations, and other useful infor-

mation.

4.4 Handpiece Attachment

Prior to use on a patient, ensure the desired handpiece has been cleaned consistent with the instructions 

in Section 6.1. When attaching the handpiece connector to the transducer cable, pay careful attention to 

the alignment of the connectors. The connectors are designed to only attach in a particular “clock position”. 

If you find the handpiece connector does not attach, DO NOT force it. Slightly rotate the connector and try 

again until the indexing feature aligns and the connector clicks into place. To detach, squeeze the silver tab 

on the connector while gently pulling the connector out.

Make sure you attach the handpiece you intend to use. The Ultimate Contour is designed to detect which 

handpiece is attached (ultrasound or RF) and limit access to controls accordingly. This system is designed 

for Bipolar RF emissions. A neutral electrode is not necessary.
