Treatment Does Not Start - Possible Causes; Treatment Is Interrupted - Possible Causes - KaWe SwiSto3 Mode D'emploi

ENGLISH
By pressing the button on the membrane keypad on the upper
side of the device, the treatment current can be increased until
a mild to strong tingling can be felt. The intensity of the current
can be seen on the display. Similarly, the current can also be
reduced during the treatment by pressing the button. When
the current is being changed during the treatment, the current
reading on the display does not blink.
CAUTION: Do not exceed the recommended maximum current
(see table)!
The treatment stops automatically after the set treatment time
has been reached or when the current circuit is broken before
the set time has elapse. The treatment will resume for the
remainder of the set treatment time when the current circuit
has once again been closed. The clock symbol blinks and the
time countdown resumes.
If the clock showing the treatment time has run down to 00:00
and the current circuit is still complete, the + / - symbols on
the display both begin to blink. Once the set treatment time
has expired, none of the settings can be changed until the
circuit has been interrupted by removing the hands or feet
from the water trays. The + / - symbols then stop blinking and
the MIN symbol begins to blink, signalling that new settings
can now be selected. The previously set treatment time will
be saved.
Turn the SwiSto3 iontophoresis device off after completing
treatment by pressing the power button. The device will also
turn off automatically after two minutes.
The last-used treatment settings are automatically saved and
used when the device is restarted for the next treatment.
These settings can be changed with an open current circuit as
described in Section 9.
The SwiSto3 iontophoresis device can also be plugged into the
local power supply network to be charged using the charging
plug. The battery symbol shows the battery charge up in the
top right-hand corner of the display.
The charging symbol appears when the charging plug is
plugged in. After testing the rechargeable battery for at most
one minute, the charging function begins and the battery
symbol begins to blink.
If the charging plug is plugged in during treatment, the
treatment will be interrupted.

10. Important information
If the treatment circuit is broken, the treatment current is
automatically shut off so that electric shock does not occur.
When the battery charge is low, the battery symbol begins to
blink. Treatment is only to be carried out after first charging
the battery. When the battery is empty, the device turns off
automatically.
If the rechargeable battery has an extremely low charge, the
display will blink while charging. After being charged for
max. 30 minutes, the display will illuminate normally without
blinking.
11. Troubleshooting
11.1 Treatment does not start – possible causes
Treatment circuit is not closed. Eliminate possible contact
failure between the connector cables and the electrodes by
unplugging the electrode connection pin and reinserting
it into its socket with a twisting motion. Then close the
treatment circuit through your body by placing your hands or
feet into the water onto the foam pad-covered electrodes, or
when treating underarm perspiration, by placing the sponge
pockets under your arms.
Sponge pockets (for underarm perspiration treatment) are not
wet enough. The entire surface of the sponge pockets must be
uniformly moistened.
Too little tap water in the trays. The level of the water in the
trays must be approx. 3-4 cm.
The electric conductivity of the tap water is not sufficient. In
this case, the conductivity of the tap water must be increased
by adding minerals to the water.
Electrodes are worn out. After prolonged use, the condition
of the electrodes can deteriorate (due to calcium deposits on
their surface, for example) to such an extent as to inhibit the
power output of the device. The electrodes are to be replaced.
The battery charge is low. The battery symbol blinks, + and -
symbols blink when the treatment circuit is complete.
11.2 Treatment is interrupted – possible causes
Disruption of the treatment circuit – such as by suddenly
removing hands/feet from the trays or raising your arm during
an underarm perspiration treatment.
Electrode contact failure. Eliminate possible contact failure be-
tween the connector cables and the electrodes by unplugging
