Using The Unit For The First Time And Changing The Batteries - Beurer EM 38 Mode D'emploi

Using the unit for the first time and changing the batteries

Putting on the belt
Before each use, ensure that your skin is
clean and free of creams or oils. Only in
this way the unit can work optimally.
• Lay out the belt before you with the
electrodes facing you.
• Moisten the electrodes and your back
with water. Ensure that the electrode
surfaces are moistened evenly to avoid
localised voltage peaks when they are
applied to your skin.
• Fit the belt around your waist so that the
vertical seams A are at the same place
on each side of your body. The Beurer
logo B is then in the middle of the spinal
column.
See the diagram.
When positioned correctly, the elec-
trodes C are slightly to the left and
right of your spinal column.

• Then, close the Velcro fastener.
Ensure that the belt fits tightly
enough to provide a good contact
between the electrodes and your
skin, but does not constrict.

Extending the belt
If the belt is not adequate for your
waistline, you can use the exten-
sion belt provided.
Depending on your waistline, the
holder for the control unit may be
away from the centre of your body.
It is important that the belt is posi-
tioned correctly, therefore the elec-
trodes C must be to the left and
right of the spinal column.
Inserting the control unit
• Insert the control unit into the holder on
the belt.
• The operating keys should be facing
outwards and the display should be fac-
ing upwards and towards you.
• If inserted correctly, the control unit
clicks into the holder.

batteries. To insert or replace bat-
teries, you have to remove the con-
trol unit from the holder of the belt.
