Reconditioning
HIDREX tap water iontophoresis devices are reusable medical devices and can
be reconditioned after use of a customer. The reconditioning of the devices is
classified as “non-critical”.
The reconditioning should be done only by an authorized HIDREX repair center.
If a device is to be reconditioned, the following actions will also be taken:
•
The consumables (towels
➷
or axillary pads
❐
) need to be disposed of
and replaced by new ones.
•
The accessories, treatment trays (hard case trays
➘
or
ergonomic
trays
➱
) and electrodes
➴
need to be disposed of and replaced by new
ones.
•
The control unit must be purified and disinfected.
•
A technical check and safety inspection must be completed and docu-
mented.
The medical device may be reconditioned up to 10 times.
Troubleshooting
If prior to, during, or after a treatment session, the device does not operate
in accordance with this manual, please go through the following checklist
and perform the operational check before you send the device for repair.
This can save you considerable cost and inconvenience. Thank you!
Error Checklist
Please go through this checklist as the first step in troubleshooting:
⌦
Verify that the AC power adapter is properly connected to the control
unit and to the wall outlet.
⌦
Verify that the connectors on the cable set are pushed far enough
onto the receptacles of the treatment electrodes for establishing a re-
liable connection.
⌦
Verify that the device works properly on another person. If it does,
over-treatment protection is on and you will need to wait until your
skin needs treatment before using again.
Hint:
In rare cases, tap water conductance may be inadequate
(e.g. when tap water deionizing equipment is in use). In that case, try
non-carbonated mineral or table water instead to raise the current.
Operational Check
Proceed with the following steps for an operational check of your system:
1)
Set up the therapy system as you would for a treatment.
2)
Activate the main power switch
1
to turn the control unit ON. Dose
and treatment time settings should appear on the main display .
