Section 6—Maintenance and
Troubleshooting
6.1
Cleaning the Sys*Stim 206
1. The
Sys*Stim 206 can be wiped off with a damp cloth. The power
cord should be disconnected from the wall before this is done. In the
case of stubborn dirt a gentle household cleaner can be sprayed on
the cloth and then wiped on the unit. If this method is used, remove
any cleaner residue with a damp cloth.
2. Replace the electrodes and cables upon any sign of wear, tear or
corrosion to insure proper operation of the device. More information
about proper preparation of the patient area to be treated and
preparation of the electrode pads is provided in Section 4.
3. Follow the self-adhesive electrode package instructions for the use
and care of these electrodes.
4. For routine cleaning of the sponge electrodes and electrode cables
use soap and water and rinse thoroughly. Dry cables and their
connections after cleaning.
6.2 Routine
Maintenance
1. Standard medical electrical safety checks should be performed
annually by qualified biomedical engineers or technicians trained to
perform these procedures.
2. Inspect electrode cable and associated connector for damage.
6.3
Troubleshooting the Sys*Stim 206
Symptom Action

power switch is turned on.
Check to ensure that the line
cord properly connected to the
