Step 2 – Connect the unit and switch it on
Connect the unit to the garment by plugging it into the garment socket (Fig. e). Switch on the unit by
pressing the On/ Off button for 3 seconds (Fig. f). The unit display will show the programme number
selected, the duration of the programme and the battery status.
Notes:
•
When connected to a Left garment the unit will display ‘
L
’ for 3 seconds at start up.
•
When connected to a Right garment the unit will display ‘
r
’ for 3 seconds at start up.
Please check that your unit displays the correct code for the garment to which it’s connected.
If the unit does not display the expected code, please contact the
neurotech
®
office.
Step 3 – Begin treatment
Begin increasing the intensity (Fig. g). This starts the treatment session and the timer will begin to
count down. As you increase the left or right intensity button you will feel the stimulation increasing
on the corresponding side of your leg. You will also see the intensity level for that side increasing on
the unit’s display. Increase the intensity on both sides of your leg until you feel a firm, comfortable
contraction of the quadriceps. The intensity level ranges from 0 - 99.
Important Notes:
•
Typically, you should increase the intensity to the inside of your leg first and to optimise contractions,
the intensity level for the inner thigh should be set at a higher level than the outer thigh. As you
become more experienced using Kneehab, you will quickly find the levels which suit you best.
•
The treatment is delivered in contraction and relaxation cycles. See your Programme Information
Card for more details.
•
Changing the intensity at any time will trigger the start of a contraction cycle.
