Electrodes and Skin Care
Proper skin care will help make the use of this device more comfortable and
trouble-free. Prior to treatment, wash the areas where the electrodes will be
placed with mild soap and water, rinse and dry the skin thoroughly. If
necessary, remove excess body hair.
The E-Wave is intended to be used with re-usable, self-adhesive electrodes.
Extended number of uses can be obtained by adding water to the adhesive
surface immediately after each use and placing them on the plastic pad. They
will regain their conductivity and adhesiveness as compared to leaving them
dry.
Sterile electrodes may be required for some post-op applications.
Batteries
One 9 volt Alkaline battery is used. The battery compartment on the back of
the device opens by sliding the cover downwards. Please ensure to dispose
the used batteries properly.
Rechargeable batteries are not recommended as they only have a short usage
time and are not charged while in the device.
