Effective skin care is especially important in order to en-
sure comfortable use of your tens 1000 s unit.
• Always wash the areas of skin where the electrodes are to be
placed using mild soap and water. Thoroughly wash off any so-
ap remains and carefully dry the skin before using an electrode.
• To ensure effective contact between the skin and the electrode,
excess hair should be cut but not shaved off prior to treatment.
• You may prepare the skin with a skin care product recommen-
ded by your doctor. After applying it, let it dry before atta-
ching the electrodes as described. This will reduce the like-
lihood of skin irritation and prolong the life of your electrodes.

• Avoid excessive pulling of the skin when attaching the electro-
des. The best way to achieve this is to place the electrode on
the skin and carefully smooth it out from the centre outwards.
• When removing the electrodes, always pull them off in the di-
rection of hair growth.
• It may be helpful to apply a skin cream to the area being
treated while the electrodes are not being worn.
