Safety Precautions
•
Do not stand on the machine. Use only when seated
• Do not position the Revitive so that it is difficult to disconnect or turn off
• Use the device only for its intended purpose
• Do not expose the device to extreme heat
• Do not spill liquid on the device or its accessories
• Do not overload the electrical socket
• Keep device out of the reach of children
• Keep power cords and cables out of the reach of children to prevent risk of
strangulation
• Revitive foot-pads may be used by multiple persons. Ensure device is cleaned after
each use
• During use, do not touch foot-pads with your hands until the paused feature is
enabled or device has powered off
• Use Revitive only with the accessories supplied by, or purchased from, the
manufacturer
• Check Body Pads, cords and cables periodically for damage
• Do not open Revitive or repair it yourself. This will invalidate your warranty and
may
cause serious harm
• In the unlikely event your Revitive malfunctions, disconnect it from the power
source and contact your nearest authorised agent
• It has been reported that some universal remote control devices (e.g. for TV
etc.) can change the settings on Revitive if used during a treatment. If this should
occur, simply adjust the time or intensity settings on Revitive back to where you want
them using the Revitive Remote Control, or using the device Control Panel
• Revitive has passed the required tests for Electromagnetic Interference (EMI); it
may still be affected by excessive emissions and/or may interfere with more
sensitive equipment
• After any exposure to hot or cold temperatures outside the specified operating
range of 10 – 40°C allow the product to re-adjust to the recommended operating
temperatures to ensure continued product performance
Cautions
When applying foot-pads or electrode body pads:
• Be careful when applying stimulation over areas of skin that lack normal sensation.
It may cause skin irritation due to the inability to feel stimulation until the intensity
is too high. Use a low intensity to achieve a gentle muscle contraction, and/or
use for a shorter time, to avoid over-stimulation. Check for signs of skin irritation
(redness), bruising or pain. If in doubt consult your doctor
• This product is not intended for use by persons with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, unless they are supervised by a person responsible for their
safety
When using EMS:
• Be careful when applying stimulation:
•
Over the abdomen during menstruation
•
After recent surgical procedures (within the past 6 months) as stimulation may
disrupt your healing process
•
If your tissues are likely to bleed following an injury such as a muscle tear - it is
recommended not to stimulate the immediate area within the first 12 hours
after sustaining the injury. Use a low intensity and/or shorter time to avoid
over-stimulation
•
After a long period of immobility or inactivity – use a low intensity and shorter
time to avoid over-stimulation or muscle fatigue
When using TENS:
• It is possible Revitive may reduce the sensation of pain that would normally act
as a warning of an underlying problem
•
If your pain does not improve, gets worse or continues for more than 5 days, stop
using the device and seek advice from your doctor
• TENS is not effective in treating the original source or cause of pain
Additional Cautions:
• The long term effects of electrical stimulation are unknown
• Electrical stimulation may not work for every user, please seek advice from
your doctor
