9. Disposal

The empty, completely flat batteries must be disposed of through specially
designated collection boxes, recycling points or electronics retailers. You are
legally required to dispose of the batteries.
The codes below are printed on batteries containing harmful sub-
stances:
Pb = Battery contains lead,
Cd = Battery contains cadmium,
Hg = Battery contains mercury.
For environmental reasons, do not dispose of the device in the household waste
at the end of its useful life. Dispose of the unit at a suitable local collection or
recycling point. Dispose of the device in accordance with EC Directive –
WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment). If you have any
questions, please contact the local authorities responsible for waste
disposal.

10. Problems and solutions

The machine does not switch on when the ON/OFF button
What should I do?
(1) Make sure that the batteries have been inserted correctly and have contact.
(2) Change the batteries if necessary.
(3) Contact customer service.
The electrodes are detaching themselves from the body. What should I do?
(1) Clean the adhesive surface of the electrodes with a damp, lint-free cloth.
Then let them dry in the air and attach them again. Should the electrodes still
not adhere firmly, they must be replaced.
(2) Before each application, clean the skin, avoiding using any skin cream or oils
before treatment. Shaving can increase adhesion of the electrodes.
There is no noticeable stimulation. What should I do?
(1) Interrupt the programme by pressing the ON/OFF button
the connecting leads are properly connected to the electrodes. Make sure
that there is a firm contact between the electrodes and the treatment area.
(2) Make sure that the plug of the connecting lead is firmly connected to the ma-
chine.
(3) Press the ON/OFF key to start the programme again.
(4) Check that the electrodes are positioned properly and make sure that the ad-
hesive electrodes are not overlapping.
(5) Increase pulse intensity in stages.
(6) The batteries are almost empty. Replace these.
What to do if the battery symbol is displayed.
Replace all batteries.
You are aware that the electrodes feel uncomfortable. What should I do?
(1) The electrodes are badly positioned. Check positioning and if necessary re-
position the electrodes.
(2) The electrodes are worn. Due to the fact that current distribution can no
longer be guaranteed evenly over the entire surface, these may lead to skin
irritation. You must therefore replace these.
The skin in the treatment area becomes red. What should I do?
Stop treatment immediately and wait until the skin has returned to normal. If any
redness beneath the electrode soon disappears, this is not dangerous and is
due to the increased circulation which has been stimulated locally.
