• Keep stimulator and accessories in the original case when they are not in use. It may, however, be
practical to allow the electrodes to remain on the body between treatments. Carbon rubber elec-
trodes can generally remain for 2–3 hours without the electrode gel drying out (does not apply to
adhesive gel). They must then be taken off, washed, and dried before being applied again. This is
especially important for persons with sensitive skin. In connection with stimulation, make sure that
the electrodes are firmly in place.
• When using carbon rubber electrodes, use plenty of electrode gel and avoid drying out by applying
tape around all the edges of the electrodes. Rinse the carbon rubber electrodes and the skin with
water after use. Do not use detergent for the electrodes.
• Self-adhesive multi-use electrodes are re-moistened if necessary with a few drops of water and
kept air-tight (in a plastic bag) on protective paper when they are not in use.
• Never expose the stimulator to water. Wipe it off with a damp cloth if necessary.
• Do not jerk cables or connections.
• The cables are best preserved if left attached to the stimulator between sessions.
• No other maintenance of the device is required. Service life of the device can vary depending on
usage conditions. Typical service life ifs 7 years.
• Never service the device while in use.
• The device should be operated in temperatures between 10°C and 40°C, atmospheric pressures
between 50 and 106 kPa, and relative humidity between 30% and 75%.
• The device should be transported and stored in temperatures between -40 °C and 70 °C, atmos-
pheric pressures between 50 and 106 kPa and relative humidity between 10% and 90%.
• Contact manufacturer for assistance in setting up, using or maintaining the equipment orreport
events.
