d. Electrode pads are private and intended for single per-
son use. Please avoid use them by different persons.
e. The electrode must connect entirely to the skin surface
to prevent hot spots, which may lead to skin burns.
f. Do not use the electrode pads for more than approx. 10
times, as connection between the electrodes and the
skin deteriorates over time.
g. The adhesive force of the electrodes depends on the
skin properties, storage condition, and the number of
applications. If your electrode pads no longer fully stick
to the skin’s surface, replace them with new ones. Stick
the electrode pads back onto the protective foil after use
and store them in the storage bag to prevent them from
drying out. This retains the adhesive force for a longer
period.
Caution:
1) Before applying the electrode, it is recommended for us-
ers to wash and degrease the skin, and then dry it.
2) Never remove the electrode from the skin while the de-
vice is still on.
3) Only use the electrode pads provided by the manufac-
turer. Use of other companies’ products could result in
injuries to the user.
6.14 Where do I attach electrode pads?
a. Each person reacts differently to electric nerve stimula-
tion. Therefore, the placement of the electrodes may
deviate from the standard. If application is not success-
ful, contact your physician to find out which placement
techniques are best for you.
b. Do not use any adhesive electrodes with a size smaller than
those the original manufacturer attached.Otherwise the
current density may be too high and cause injuries.
c. The size of the adhesive pads may not be changed, e.g.
by clipping off parts of them.
d. Make sure that the region radiating the pain is enclosed
by the electrodes. In case of painful muscle groups, at-
