Warning
To avoid damage to health, we strongly advise against
using the device in the following situations:
• Do not use the device if you have a pacemaker
or other implants, such as an insulin pump or
metal implants.
• If you have a high fever (e.g. > 39 °C).
• If you have a known or acute cardiac arrhythmia
(arrhythmia), or disorders of the heart’s impulse and con-
duction system.
• If you suffer from a seizure disorder (e.g. epilepsy).
• If you are pregnant.
• If you have cancer.
• After an operation, if strong muscle contractions could
affect the healing process.
• On acutely or chronically affected (injured or irritated)
skin, e.g. inflamed skin, whether painful or not, or red-
dened skin.
• On rashes (e.g. allergies), burns, bruises, swellings, as
well as open and healing wounds.
• On surgical scars that are still healing.
• If you are connected to a high-frequency surgical device.
This may lead to burns under the electrical muscle stim-
ulation areas.
• When under the influence of pain-relieving medication,
alcohol or sleeping tablets.
• Whilst undertaking any activity where an unexpected
reaction (e.g. strong muscle contractions even at low
intensity) could be dangerous, e.g. while driving or oper-
ating/driving machinery.
• On a sleeping person.
• Do not use the device whilst using other devices that
transmit electrical impulses into your body.
• The device is suitable for self-treatment.
• For hygiene reasons, the cuff may only be used on one
person.
• Ensure that no metallic objects come into contact with
the electrodes during stimulation. Failure to do so could
result in spot burns.
• In the case of acute or chronic diseases of the gastro-
intestinal tract.
• In the case of metallic implants.
• If you use an insulin pump.
• In areas with high humidity such as in the bathroom or
when bathing or showering.
The device must not be used:
• In the head area: this can trigger seizures.
• In the neck/carotid artery area: this can cause a cardiac
arrest.
• In the throat and larynx area: this can trigger muscular
cramps, which may cause suffocation.
• In the ribcage area: this can increase the risk of ventricu-
lar fibrillation and induce cardiac arrest.
