How long is the therapy?
The unit will continue automatically for 15 minutes before it shuts off. If you want to stop the therapy while in use, press the Power button.
We recommend a total of 30 minutes therapy in one sitting, up to 3 times/day.
HOW TO CONTROL AND REDUCE YOUR PAIN
When should you start therapy?
Use as soon as your pain begins. Start with one session (the unit automatically turns off at 15 minutes). Turn off with pads still on and RATE
YOUR PAIN again (1 low to 10 high).
Get to your pain early
If you get to your pain early, it may prevent the pain from becoming worse, or even chronic. It’s better for you to get it under
control sooner so that it does not reach a high pain threshold where it limits your daily activities.
How long should you use it?
Start with one 15 minute session. Always turn unit off with pads still on. Rate your pain to check your progress, 1 low to 10 high. Stop therapy
session if pain has reduced or stopped. Press the Power button to continue therapy for another 15 minute session.
1 session: 15 minute automatic shut-off
Max minutes/session: 30 minutes
Max times/day: 3 times
See warnings. Long-time treatment and strong stimulation may cause muscular fatigue and may generate adverse effects.
When to stop using the unit?
1. If you experienced an
adverse reaction
(skin irritation/redness/burns, headache or other painful sensation, or if you feel any unusual
discomfort).
2. If your pain
does not improve
, becomes seriously chronic and severe, or continues
for more than fi ve days
.
What type of pain is it best for?
This therapy works best on acute pain because it is localized. Acute pain is pain in one area for less than 3 months. If you have chronic pain,
you may have pain in more than one area and for longer than 6 months. Chronic pain may be compounded by other issues that this unit
cannot address.
Remember, this unit does not cure your pain or the original cause of the pain. It provides temporary relief or reduction of pain so that you can
control your life and activities better.
Before using, check these points to make sure everything is working properly.
1. Make sure the cord is not broken.
2. Check that the pad adhesive sticks and is not damaged.
3. The electrode cord connection is not broken.
4. The unit is intact and in working order.
5. There is no battery leakage.
CLEANING AND STORAGE
The unit is designed for repeated use over time. The pads will last up to 150 uses, or 5 months (based on use 1/day). Here are
important cleaning and storage instructions:
Cleaning the pads
1. Turn the power off and remove the electrode cord from the pads.
2. Wash the pads when the adhesive surface becomes dirty and/or the pads are diffi cult to attach.
• Wash the pad softly with your fi ngertips under slow running cold water for several seconds (do not use a sponge/
cloth/sharp object like a nail on adhesive side, do not use detergents, chemicals or soap).
3. Pads can be washed after 15 uses, approximately ten times for up to 150 uses. Do not wash the pads too long or too frequently.
4. Dry the pads and let the adhesive surface air-dry completely. Do not wipe with a tissue paper or cloth.
5.
Pads are replaceable and can be purchased when needed by calling 1-800-634-4350 or go to omronhealthcare.com.
The life of the pads may vary by how often you wash the pads, the skin condition, and how you store the pads.
When should you replace your pads?
If the pad no longer sticks to your skin or if more than 25% of the pad’s surface is not in contact with your skin.
Cleaning the unit
1. Turn unit off and disconnect the electrode cords from the pads.
2. Clean with a lightly moistened cloth (or a cloth soaked in a neutral cleaning solution) and wipe gently.
•
Do not use chemicals (like thinner, benzene).
•
Do not let water get into the internal area.
Storing the pads
1. Turn the unit off and remove the cord from the bottom of the unit.
2. Remove the pads from your body.
3.
Leave the electrode cords connected to the pads.
Place the pads on the pad holder, one pad on each side with the sticky side of each pad on the pad holder.
4.
Wrap the electrode cords around the pad holder.
Storing the unit and pads
•
Place the unit, pads with electrode cords on pad holder, Pad Placement Guide and Instruction Manual inside the original box.
• Do not keep in areas subject to direct sunlight, high or low temperatures, humid area, near to fi re, vibration, or shock.
Storage temperature, 32°F - 104°F (0°C - 40°C), 30% - 80% relative humidity.
•
Do not keep at places that can be easily reached by children.
•
When not in use for a long period, remove the batteries before storage, to avoid liquid discharge from batteries.
•
Do not wrap the electrode cords around the unit because it may damage the cord.

FCC STATEMENT
FCC CAUTION
Changes or modifi cations not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Note:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
•
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
•
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
•
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation of this device.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING ELECTRO MAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC)
With the increased number of electronic devices such as PC’s and mobile (cellular) telephones, medical devices in use may be susceptible to
electromagnetic interference from other devices. Electromagnetic interference may result in incorrect operation of the medical device and create a
potentially unsafe situation.
Medical devices should also not interfere with other devices.
In order to regulate the requirements for EMC (Electro Magnetic Compatibility) with the aim to prevent unsafe product situations, the IEC60601-
1-2 standard has been implemented. This standard defi nes the levels of immunity to electromagnetic interferences as well as maximum levels of
electromagnetic emissions for medical devices.
Medical devices manufactured for OMRON Healthcare conform to this IEC60601-1-2:2007 standard for both immunity and emissions.
Nevertheless, special precautions need to be observed:
• The use of accessories and cables other than those specifi ed by OMRON, with the exception of cables sold by OMRON as replacement parts for
internal components, may result in increased emission or decreased immunity of the device.
•
The medical devices should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other equipment. In case adjacent or stacked use is necessary, the medical device
should be observed to verify normal operation in the confi guration in which it will be used.
• Do not use mobile (cellular) telephones and other devices, which generate strong electrical or electromagnetic fi elds, near the medical device. This may
result in incorrect operation of the unit and create a potentially unsafe situation. Recommendation is to keep a minimum distance of 7 m. Verify correct
operation of the device in case the distance is shorter.
The PM3029 is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specifi ed below. The customer or the user of the PM3029 should assure that it is
used in such environment.
