6. Instructions for Use
1. Connect both ends of the electrode cable with two electrode pads.
2. Plug the electrode cable into one of the output jacks located at the top of the unit. Either side A or B.
3. Use a damp towel to wipe the skin before you place the pads to
remove any body oil, cosmetics or dirt. Should the pads be soiled, both their adhesiveness and reusability will be reduced.
4. Peel off the protective film from
the pads.
5. Apply the pads to the areas of the
body you want to massage.
6. Press the On/Off button on the
top right hand side of the unit to enable the display. The mode selected will flash on the LCD screen and the timer will automatically be set to 20 minutes.
7. Click the mode area to select your
preferred mode from the 24 modes available.
8. Increase the intensity when
changing to a new mode until stimulation is strong but comfortable. Intensity will return to the lowest setting automatically when selecting a new mode or sub-
mode. Press “+” or “-“ buttons on the side of the unit or tap “+” or “-“ on
the screen to strengthen or reduce the intensity output. The ideal power output depends on your personal comfort.
9. Tap the timer to adjust the treatment time. The time is automatically set at 20 minutes when the device is powered on. Each tap will increase the timer by 10 minutes. When the timer ends, the unit will power off.
10. Press the bottom silver button to lock the LCD screen once all settings have been chosen. The unlock symbol will change to a lock symbol on the screen. This will
ensure your settings aren’t
accidentally changed during treatment. Press the same button again to unlock the screen.
11. If you need to turn off the device during treatment, hold in the power button to power down the device.
12. Take off the electrode pads and return them to the protective films for storage and reuse.
Notes: As responses will vary person-to-
person, begin with shorter treatment times and increase as necessary.
Never put two pads directly together to avoid a possible short.
You will not feel stimulation unless both pads are applied to the treatment area so a current can be formed between the pads.
Never connect this product with a common headphone jack.
The USB port is only used for charging, do not connect to any other device. Only use the charger supplied by the manufacturer.
7. Stimulation Diagram
All modes function on a combination frequency to treat muscle, nerve or joint pain so choose the mode that is most comfortable for you and your pain type.
We recommend the following modes based on pain treatment:
Muscle Spasms or Trigger Points: Kneading or Swedish
Chronic Pain: Cupping, Reflex or Scraping
Muscle Rehabilitation: Tai-Chi
8. Maintenance and Storage
1. Unplug the electrode cables from the output jacks after using.
2. Cover both pads with the protective films for storage. This will prevent the pads from becoming soiled or dirty and maintain the adhesive for more uses. You may rinse the pads with cool water and let air dry if they become dirty. This
may allow a temporary restoration of the adhesive for additional uses before the pads need to be replaced.
3. To keep the unit clean, use a soft
dry cloth for dust or a damp cloth for dirt. Do not use cleaning solutions.
4. Do not use or store the device
where there are magnetic or electric wave fields such as 1V sets or speakers.
5. Do not place the device in areas
of high temperature, high humidity, or under direct sunlight.
6. Keep the device out of reach of
children.
