6.0 Using Garments with the Neurotech Plus for a Treatment
Prior to use, charge the battery. Insert your charger into an electrical outlet and then connect the Neurotech Plus to the
charger (Fig. K). It may take approximately 2-3 hours to fully charge the battery. Your unit is fully charged when all three
sections of the battery icon are full. The battery icon will flash when the battery is low and needs to be recharged.
NOTE: Do not leave your Neurotech Plus connected to the charger when the battery is fully charged.
Step 1: Connect the Neurotech Plus to the Conductive Garment. The Neurotech Plus must be connected to the Back or
Abdomen Garment to work. Place a conductive garment on your back or abdomen as instructed. Plug the Neurotech Plus into
the garment connector as shown. (Fig. L)
IMPORTANT: Make sure the Neurotech Plus and garment are connected correctly or your conductive garments will not work —
this is a safety feature.
Step 2: Press and hold the on/off button ( ) for three seconds to turn your Neurotech Plus on. (Fig. M)
Step 3: Select the program you wish to use ( P ) by pressing the program button. Program descriptions can be found in section
6.0 of Neurotech Plus manual or on page 17 of this manual. Ask your Health Care Professional for a recommendation on which
program(s) to use.
Step 4: Press and hold the increase intensity buttons (Fig. N). Program descriptions can be found in section 6.0 of Neurotech
Plus manual or on page 17 of this manual. Increase intensity using both arrows to a comfortable level. If you are using a TENS
program for pain management, you will feel a slight tingling or tapping sensation. If you are using a NMES program, increase
intensity until you feel your muscles contracting. Always choose an intensity level which is comfortable. This will vary from
person to person. The increasing intensity level is displayed on the screen.
Step 5: Continue increasing the intensity throughout the session if possible. For NMES programs, you will feel the muscle
contractions getting stronger as the intensity increases. Remember the harder you work your muscles the better the results you
will see, but always reduce the intensity if you feel any discomfort. Your unit’s intensity range is 0-99. You can utilize the keylock
function when you find the best level of stimulation if you wish.
Pausing a Session
If you wish to pause a session before it is finished, simply press the on/off button briefly. The display will show that the unit is
paused
( II ).
To resume the session, briefly press the on/off button again. The display will return to its normal mode. (Fig. O)
