THE STIMULATION FEELS WEAK OR NOT AT ALL
•
Check if the battery pack needs to be recharged.
•
Electrodes are too old and need replacement.
THE BROKEN CIRCUIT SYMBOL IS SHOWN ON THE DISPLAY SYMBOL
The broken circuit symbol indicates that the resistance is too high, or that a cable is
broken or unplugged.
•
A too high resistance can be caused by a bad connection between the electrodes and your
skin, or that the electrodes need to be replaced.
•
A cable breakage can be checked by pressing the cable’s pins against one another while
increasing the amplitude for the corresponding channel to 11 mA. If the amplitude now drops
to 0.0 mA and the broken circuit symbol is flashing, the cable needs to be replaced.
Note!
Never increase the amplitude above 20 mA when you check for cable breaks, since this
can damage the stimulator.
THE STIMULATOR IS NOT WORKING
If the error symbol appears on the display when you start the stimulator, it means that the
stimulator is broken and needs to be replaced or reprogrammed.
Note!
Do not use the stimulator – contact your Enraf-Nonius dealer.

11 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
CAN ANYONE USE ELECTRICAL STIMULATION?
People with implanted electrical equipment, for example a pacemaker or an intracardiac
defibrillator, must not be treated with electrical stimulation. Pregnant women should not use
electrical stimulation during the first 12 weeks of the pregnancy. Read the safety precautions in
this manual (PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES).
WHAT DOES ACTIVE REST MEAN?
It means that low frequency stimulation is active during rest time, causing muscle vibrations to
maintain circulation. The Active Rest stimulation helps eliminate lactic acid and waste products,
thereby reducing muscle soreness afterwards and keeping the muscle prepared for the next
contraction.
Note! The amplitude level must be set for both contractions and Active Rest.
HOW LONG WILL THE ELECTRODES LAST?
The self-adhesive electrodes last for approximately 20 to 40 occasions. The durability depends on
how good the care and maintenance instructions are followed.
WHICH DISTANCE SHOULD I HAVE BETWEEN THE ELECTRODES?
It is recommended to have a distance of 3 to 30 cm between the electrodes.
