other medical device, please consult
its manufacturer or your doctor.
Only use the electrode cables
supplied by Compex.
Do not disconnect the stimulator
electrode cables during the session
without first switching off the
stimulator.
Never connect stimulation cables to
an external electric power supply
because of risk of electric shock.
No not use rechargeable batteries
other than the one supplied by
Compex.
Never recharge the stimulator when
cables and electrodes are still
connected onto the user.
Never recharge the batteries with
another charger than the one
supplied with the Compex.
Never use the Compex or the
charger if it is damaged (case, cables,
etc.) or if the compartment for the
rechargeable battery is open. There is
a risk of electric discharge.
Disconnect immediately the charger
if the Compex "bleeps" continuously,
in case of abnormal heating or smell,
or if smoke comes from the charger
or the Compex. Do not recharge the
batteries in a confined area (case,
etc.) because of risk of fire or electric
discharge.
Keep the Compex and its accesso-
ries out of the reach of children.
Do not allow any foreign items
(soil, water, metal, etc.) to enter into
the Compex, the compartment for the
rechargeable battery and the charger.
Sudden temperature variations can
create droplets in the device due to
condensation. Use the device only
once it reached ambient temperature.
Do not use the Compex while
driving or operating machinery.
Do not use the stimulator in the
mountains at an altitude higher than
3.000 metres.

Where you should never apply
electrodes...
To the head.
Counter-laterally: Do not use the
two poles of the same channel
(one electrode connected to the
positive/red pole and one electrode
connected to the negative/black
pole) on either side of the body cen-
treline (eg: right arm and left arm).
To or in the vicinity of skin
lesions of any kind (wounds,
inflammations, burns, irritations,
eczema, etc.).
Precautions when using the
electrodes
Only use the electrodes supplied
by Compex. Other electrodes may
have electrical properties that are
unsuitable for the Compex stimulator.
Do not remove or move the
electrodes during a stimulation
session without first switching off
the instrument.
Do not plunge the electrodes into
water.
Do not apply a solvent of any
kind to the electrodes.
Before applying the electrodes, it
is recommended to wash and
degrease the skin, and then dry it.
Apply the whole surface of the
electrodes to the skin.
For very important reasons of
hygiene, each user must have his
own electrode set. Do not use the
same electrodes on different people.
Do not use a set of electrodes for
more than fifteen sessions, as the
quality of the contact between the
electrode and the skin, which is
important for the comfort and
effectiveness of stimulation,
progressively degrades.
In certain people with very
sensitive skin, redness may be
observed under the electrodes after a
manuals search engine
stimulation session. Generally, this
redness is completely harmless and
disappears after 10 to 20 minutes.
However, avoid starting a stimulation
session on the same area until the
redness is no longer evident.
