Connecting the Tens Device
NOTE: Be sure both intensity controls for Channel 1 and 2 are turned to the
“OFF” position.
1. Prepare the skin as previously discussed and according to instructions provided with
your electrodes. Before attaching the electrodes, identify the area which your clinician
has recommended for electrode placement.
2. Connect the lead wires to the electrodes before applying the electrodes to the skin.
3. Place the electrodes on the skin as recommended by your physician/clinician.
4. Insert Lead Wire Connector to TENS device. Plug end of lead wire into the channel
output receptacle to be used, pushing plug in as far as it will go.
5. Select Treatment Settings. Check and be sure your unit is still set to the proper settings
recommended by your physician/clinician.
6. Adjusting Channel Intensity Control, locate the intensity control knob at the top of
the unit.
Turn channel 1 or 2 clockwise. The indicator light will light up as long as the unit is in
operation. Slowly turn the channel control in a clockwise direction until you reach the
intensity recommended by your medical professional. Repeat for the other channel if both
channels are to be used.
If the stimulation levels are uncomfortable or become uncomfortable, reduce the
stimulation amplitude to a comfortable level or cease stimulation and contact your
physician if problems persist.
Changing the Battery
When the yellow indicator light on the front of the unit does not remain lit once the unit is
turned on, the battery should be replaced with a new battery.
1. Flip open panel cover completely. This will reveal the battery compartment.
2. Remove the discharged battery from the device.
3. Place new battery in compartment. Note the proper polarity alignment indicated on the
battery and the compartment.
