• Protect the device from dust, dirt and humidity. Never immerse the device in water or other liquids.
• The device is suitable for self-treatment.
• If the device does not work properly, or you feel unwell or experience pain, stop using it immediately.
• Do not modify electrodes (e.g. by cutting them). This increases the current intensity, which is potentially hazardous (max. recommend-
ed output value for the electrodes is 58.1 mA/sq in (9 mA/cm²), an effective current intensity beyond 12.9 mA/sq in (2 mA/cm²) requires
increased awareness).
• Ensure that no metallic objects (e.g. belt buckles or necklaces) come into contact with the electrodes during stimulation. If you are
wearing jewellery or have piercings in the area to be treated (e.g. a navel piercing), these must be removed before using the device.
Failure to do so could result in spot burns.
• Make sure not to confuse the electrode cables including contacts with your headphones or other devices and do not connect the
electrodes to other devices.
• Do not use the device whilst using other devices that transmit electrical impulses into your body.
• Do not use rechargeable batteries and always use the same battery types.
• During the initial few minutes use the device while sitting or lying down to minimise the risk of injuries as a consequence of isolated
cases of vagal responses (feeling of faintness). If you feel faint, immediately switch off the device, lie down and support the legs in an
elevated position (approx. 5 – 10 min).
