INSTRUCTIONS
Open the battery compartment cover (batteries not included) on the back of the unit and
insert two 1.5V AAA batteries. Replace the battery compartment cover.
Using the Abdominal and Lumbar Belt
Attach the Gymform® ABS & CORE PLUS unit (1) to the front of the abdominal belt using
the three snap fasteners. Ensure that they are all well fastened.
Fit the 4 electrodes (8) to the belt using the snaps. Fit 2 electrodes to the abdominal belt (2)
and 2 to the lumbar belt (3).
Remove the plastic protectors from the electrodes and attach the electrodes to the area that
you wish to exercise. Make sure you replace them after use. This will help extend the useful
life of the electrodes.
The rotary movement of the electrodes allows you to control their exact position and attach
them to the areas that you wish to exercise.
Place the abdominal belt (2) over your abdominal muscles and the lumbar belt (3) over
your lumbar area. Adjust the belt using the long elastic strip (5), which is equipped with a
Velcro® fastener.
If, after fitting the abdominal belt, you find that the lumbar belt is not in the correct position
over the lumbar area, you can adjust it using the short elastic strip (6).
Ensure that the belt is properly adjusted so that the electrodes are in contact with the skin.
If you wish to exercise both the abdominal and lumbar regions at the same time, ensure the
connector cable (7) is connected via the snaps in the abdominal belt connector area (9) and
one end of the lumbar belt. If, however, you only wish to exercise the abdominal region, dis-
connect the connector cable (7) using the snaps located on the front of the abdominal belt.
AREAS WHERE THE BELT MAY BE USED
A) Upper abdominals
B) Main abdominals and back
C) Lower abdominals and back
D) Oblique muscles

Using the Leg and Arm Belt
Attach the Gymform® ABS & CORE PLUS unit (1) to the front of the arm and leg belt (4)
using the three snap fasteners. Ensure that they are all well fastened.
Attach the two electrodes (8) to the belt using the snaps.

Remove the protective plastic backing from the electrodes. Make sure you replace the bac-
king after use.
Position the belt on the area you wish to work on and ensure that the belt is well secured with
the Velcro® so that the electrodes are in contact with the skin.

G) Lower front thigh
H) Upper front thigh
I) Outer upper thigh (front)

WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU REPLACE THE ELECTRODES AFTER EVERY 30 USES.
IF YOU NOTICE THE ELECTRODES HAVE PREMATURELY LOST THEIR ADHESIVE
POWER, WET THEM WITH A DAMP SPONGE.
Press the ON/HIGH button to turn on your Gymform® ABS & CORE PLUS.
Programme Selection
When Gymform® ABS & CORE PLUS is first switched on, it starts at Programme 1 with the
intensity at 0. Use the MODE button to select other programmes. Press the MODE button
once to change to Programme 2, once again for Programme 3, and so on. After reaching
Programme 9, it will return to Programme 1. The programme selected is clearly shown by
the programme indicator lights on the upper side of the Gymform® ABS & CORE PLUS
console. See the ILLUSTRATION shown on the following page to identify the programmes.
Adjusting the Intensity Level
To reduce the intensity level, briefly and repeatedly press the OFF/LOW button. To increase
the intensity level, briefly and repeatedly press the ON/HIGH button. There are 20 intensity
levels to choose from. If this is your first electro-stimulation session, we recommend that
you start at Level 1 for the first 10 minutes and then gradually increase the intensity as
you become more familiar with the device. The intensity level selected is shown by the 5
indicator lights located on the upper side of the Gymform® ABS & CORE PLUS console
as shown below:

Intensity level
NOTE: If you feel heat in the areas where you have attached the electrodes or if the con-
tractions become weak during the session, it is likely that the batteries need to be replaced.
Remove them and insert new ones. If this does not solve the problem, the electrodes have
probably reached the end of their useful life. Switch off the Gymform® ABS & CORE PLUS,
take it off, fit new electrodes to the belt and then resume your session.
Switching off the Gymform® ABS & CORE PLUS
Press the MODE button once. Your Gymform® ABS & CORE PLUS session will end imme-
diately. Then press the OFF/LOW button once more to switch off the console.
Automatic Power Off
For your safety, the default exercise period is 10 minutes. Gymform® ABS & CORE PLUS
will automatically switch itself off 10 minutes after being switched on, regardless of the level
or programme selected.
When you finish the programme, the device will switch itself off automatically. When you
switch it on again, you will have to programme it again.
