by pressing the - button.

As you increase the intensity, you will feel
a mild tingling sensation. Adjust intensity
to a level that is comfortable but not overpowering.

N.B Each of the 11 ‘Body Part’ programs have different
treatment times. Please refer to page 17 for a list of
these.

ii) Condition Mode 

Once selected, this mode
enables you to choose a
TENS treatment program
associated with 15 different
pain conditions (see page
13 for a list of conditions
and treatment times).

Now follow the

‘Commencing Treatment’

section as above.

12

iii) Manual Mode 

This mode enables you

to create a specific TENS
setting where you can
adjust the Pulse Rate, Pulse
Width, the Waveforms and
Treatment Time according
to your requirements.

Manual mode settings

B - stands for Burst

Mode (a rise and fall
of impulses. Typically
used for short term
therapy sessions)

C - stands for Continuous

Mode (a constant
level of impulses.
Typically used for short or long term therapy
sessions)

M - stands for Modulation Mode (a ratio of impulses

such that your body doesn’t adjust to the stimuli.
Typically used for long term therapy sessions)

Pulse Width - increases the space between each wave.
Pulse Rate - increases the frequency in which the

waves travel through the skin. Typically
the higher, the more comfortable the
stimuli.

Wave Form - addresses different main conditions

in more effective manners, e.g. mono­phasic wave is best for pain in the
extremities.

Timer: Chooses between 15, 30, 45, 60 and continuous
minutes.

Once you have selected your parameters by choosing
them on the screen press ‘Select Program’.
You will now return the Home Screen.

remember the mode which was previously used.

3. When switching between programs, the output level
will automatically drop to zero.

4. When the treatment timer is set, it will begin to count
down one minute at a time. Once it counts down to
zero, the unit will automatically shut down.

5. When one or both electrodes are not placed firmly on
skin, or they become loose from the skin, the output
level will automatically drop to zero.

6. The selected program will only run when the intensity
is set above zero.

7. The iTENS App can operate in the background of your
phone or tablet enabling you to use it normally during
treatment

8. The treatment time will be accumulatively recorded
when the output level is above zero. Other track and
chart features need to be enabled in the settings
section of the App.

Gel Pads

The pads that are supplied with your iTENS device are
self-adhesive and can be used several times. Properly
maintained gel pads can last up to 15 times. Your
skin must be allowed to breathe, so the wings should
be removed from the body periodically. When not in
use, the pads can stay on the wings, covered with the
protective liners and should be placed into the clear
plastic poly bag, which should be resealed and kept
closed afterwards.

After Use

Always ensure that the unit is turned OFF and place the
iTENS wings into the resealable poly bag provided.

FAQ’s:

Q Are there any side effects?

A No, it is totally drug free. There are no known side

effects.

Q Can I use it with other medications?

A Yes. TENS is drug-free so you can use it with any

other medication including paracetamol and
ibuprofen.

Troubleshooting

Q Why does the pulse sensation not appear to be as

strong after you have used the iTENS for a while?

A Increase the intensity, you may have become

acclimatised to a lower setting.

Q Why does the pulse sensation feel strong but

ineffective?

A You may need to reposition the gel pads (don’t forget

to switch the iTENS off before doing so).

Q What should I do if I can not feel any or little

sensation even on a high intensity setting?

A Check that the gel pads are fixed to the skin and also

check that the unit is charged. Check if the gel pads
need replacing.

Q There appears to be a small amount of

discolouration on my electrode wing. Is there
something wrong?

A No, this is perfectly normal. You may notice some

small brown specks appearing on your electrode
wing over time. It is a reaction which may occur
between the electrode wing, the sticky pads and
the natural oils found in your body. This will not
diminish the effectiveness of the TENS stimulation.
However, please be aware that the electrode wing is a
consumable item and should be replaced up to every
six months if used regularly.

distance

d = 1,2 P

d = 1,2 P 80 MHz to 800 MHz

d = 2,3 P 80 MHz to 2,5 MHz

Where P is the maximum
output power rating of the
transmitter in watts (W)
according to the transmitter
manufacturer and d is the
recommended separation
distance in metres (m). Field
strengths from fixed RF
transmitters, as determined
by an electromagnetic site
survey,a should be less than
the compliance level in each
frequency range.b Interference
may occur in the vicinity of
equipment marked with the
following symbol:

NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations.

Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and
reflection from structures, objects and people.

a Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio

(cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio,
AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted
theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment
due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should
be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which
the iTENS is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above,
the iTENS should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal
performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such
as re-orienting or relocating the iTENS.

b Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be

less than 3 V/m.

Recommended separation distances between portable and
mobile RF communications equipment and the iTENS .

The iTENS is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment
in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer
or the user of the iTENS can help prevent electromagnetic
interference by maintaining a minimum distance between
portable and mobile RF communications equipment
(transmitters) and the iTENS as recommended below, according
to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency
of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating
of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter
manufacturer.

NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the

higher frequency range applies.

NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations.
