In very hot weather the gel on the pads may become soft. In such cases place
the pads, still on their plastic liners and in their bag, into a fridge until they return
to their normal condition.
Warnings
Do not use high intensity settings if electrodes are smaller than 50x50mm
.
Allergic reactions to the self-adhesive electrodes can occur even though they are
hypoallergenic.

Do not apply to broken skin.
•
Do not apply electrodes to areas with less than normal sensitivity. This could lead
to setting intensities at higher levels than intended.

Charging the Battery
The
Flexistim IF
is powered by a type BL-6F
rechargeable Li-ion battery.
The battery cannot be charged while it is in the unit.
A separate charging cradle and power adaptor
are included in the kit.
The battery will only last about one hour’s use at

A battery state indicator on the screen shows how
much charge is in the battery. When it gets low, this
will start to flash.

the unit is unlikely to be used for a long period.
