4.6. STARTING AND USING MYTENS
Preparation of the treatment areas and installation of MyTens
1. Before placing the electrodes, ensure that the skin is healthy and shows no: injuries, open
wounds, redness, pre-cancerous lesions.
• Transcutaneous electrical neurostimulation (TENS) programs : Do not position the electrodes
on irritated skin or skin with open wounds, rashes or cancerous lesions
• Electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) programs : Position the electrodes only on intact and
healthy muscles. (in case of doubt, contact your doctor or physiotherapist).
2. Clean skin thoroughly prior to each application of the electrodes. Electrodes do not stick well
if any lotion, oil, make-up, dirt, etc. is left on skin. Always moisten skin with a damp cloth prior
to applying the electrodes. This will improve the electrode adhesion and life.
3. Remove the electrodes from the bag, ensure they are not damaged or worn. If the expiration
date has past / is exceeded, do not use these electrodes.
4. Attach the electrodes to the device using the pressure buttons provided for this purpose.
5. Put the first electrode on the treatment area chosen. See the section "Arranging the elec-
trodes" and the electrode positioning diagrams at the end of this manual (see paragraph 9).
6. Put the second electrode on the area of the body to treat (see paragraph 9). Avoid any contact
between both of the electrodes, do not place them on top of eachother.
7. To apply the second pair of electrodes, proceed in the same manner (steps 1 to 6). The second
pair must be placed symmetrically (e.g. for treatment of the left thigh with one pair of elec-
trodes, the second pair must be applied symmetrically on the right thigh). The intensity of the
electrical impulses will be identical in both pairs, unless otherwise selected.
Remarks
- It is possible that you may need additional assistance for placing the electrodes on certain
areas.
- Make sure that the device is switched off when moving the electrodes to avoid risk of injury
to yourself or others.
Placing the electrodes
Warning
As indicated in "Do not treat the the following parts or areas" :
Do not place the electrodes on the head, carotid artery, at the front or on the sides (right or
left) of the neck or on chest. Do not position the electrodes on swollen skin or skin with open
wounds, rashes or cancerous lesions or on irritated skin.
