Placing the device on the breast
The electrodes should be laid horizontally on the top of the breast and above the areola, directly above the nipple. It is important to place the device accurately by aiming the locator bar to the upper edge of the aureole.
In Case of Fallen Breast
Elongate the Locator bar until the electrodes’ height is above the fold of the breast.
