Note that placing the electrodes should be done
carefully and solidly, and that the use of small elec-
trodes in combination with high intensities may cause
skin irritations or burns.

2.6. Electromagnetic interference

Simultaneous connection of a patient to HF surgical
equipment and an electrical stimulator must not be
done as this may result in burns at the site of the
stimulator electrodes. Therefore, simultaneous con-
nection is not allowed. For more information see
chapter 4, Installation.
