x Keep the unit far away from sources of
heat and do not use it in close proximity
(~1 m) to shortwave or microwave units
(e.g. cell phones), as these can lead to
unwanted current peaks.
x If the unit has fallen or been dropped,
exposed to extreme moisture or incurred
other types of damage, it must no longer
be used. The device must not be sub-
jected to high temperatures or direct
sunlight and should not be used in the
presence of inflammable gases.
x Do not immerse the unit in water or
other liquids and do not allow liquids to
enter the unit.
x The unit must not be used in environ-
ments with high humidity, such as in the
bathroom or when bathing or showering.
x The device is not approved for use in the
vicinity of the heart.
x Do not use: in the vicinity of the mouth,
throat, larynx, neck or carotid artery.
Warning
x Do not use after consuming substances
which lead to reduced awareness (e.g.
medication for pain relief, alcohol).
x If the device is used by several people, we
recommend disinfecting the tip before use.
This should be performed using a disinfec-
tant from a specialist retailer, in accordance
with the manufacturer's instructions. Each
user should also have their own electrode
set for hygiene reasons.
x Ensure that during stimulation, no metal-
lic objects such as belt buckles or neck-
laces can contact the acupuncture tip. If
you wear jewellery or piercings (such as
a navel piercing) you must remove these
before using the unit, as otherwise local-
ised burns may result.
