ATTENTION:
-
The treatment should be performer with a regular movement of the ultrasound
head, not too slow to avoid inducing heat, not too fast to prevent a bad contact
which would reduce the effectiveness of the treatment.
- if it is needed to replace the handle, turn the power switch off and disconnect
the device from power supply.
After the treatment clean the skin of the treated area as well as the ultrasound head
by using a dry towel. The ultrasound-head should be cleaned up with a 70% alcohol
solution. Check the patient conditions and the treated area (pain, circulation, etc.).
The patient should reveal any complaint/reaction before starting the treatment after.

After performing the preliminary operations listed in the previous paragraph,
start the session making sure to follow these steps:
1. Press PROGRAM keys to select the program: scroll up/down the
programmes with the arrows.
2. Select the frequency 1 or 3 MHz by pressing the button FREQUEN. .
3. Select duty cycle (10-100%) by pressing the buttons DUTY CYCLE
(up arrow and down arrow)
4. Select therapy time (1-30 minutes) by pressing the buttons TIME ( up
arrow and down arrow.
5. Put a good quantity of conductive gel on the area to be treated. It is
recommended to use a CE conductive gel CE
6.
Regulate the intensity of the treatment using the knob (7). Press any of the
PROGRAM, FREQUEN., DUTY CYCLE or TIME buttons during the treatment to
visualise W (Watts) or W/cm² (Watt/sq cm).
7. Keep the head in constant contact with the skin and make sure that the part is
covered in gel so that the therapy is effective. The green LED located next to the
head on the handpiece lights up when the device is working.
8. The device has a head/skin coupling system for safety reasons. If the contact is
not correct and if the intensity is set above 0,5W, the LED on the handpiece and
the symbol on the display will start flashing. The system is not
available on the 1cm head because of the reduced contact area: the device emits
an ultrasound beam even if the head is not in contact with the skin. This is not a
defect but rather a technical choice, as it would be impossible to perform
therapies on small and irregular areas like toes or fingers with such a system.
9. It’s possible to stop temporary the therapy at any time pressing the knob (7).
Press again the knob to continue the treatment.
10. Press the orange button to stop immediately the treatment in progress.
We advise handling the handpieces with care in order to preserve them.
In order to ensure efficient transfer of energy, a contact means is required between
the ultrasound head and the body. Air causes virtually total reflection of the
ultrasound energy. The best means for the transfer of ultrasound energy is the
ultrasound gel.
