Precautions
Warning
• During the initial few minutes, use the device while sitting
or lying down to minimise the risk of accidental injuries
as a consequence of isolated cases of vagal responses
(feeling of faintness). If you feel faint, switch off the device
immediately, lie down and support the legs in an elevated
position (approx. 5 – 10 min).
• The treatment should be comfortable. If the device does
not work properly, or you feel unwell or experience pain,
stop using it immediately.
• Only remove the cuff once the device has been switched
off.
• Do not use the device near (~ 1 m) shortwave or micro-
wave devices (such as mobile phones) as these may
cause fluctuations in the output values of the device.
• The use of the device may be limited in the presence
of electromagnetic disturbances. This could result in is-
sues such as error messages or the failure of the display/
device.
• Avoid using this device directly next to other devices or
stacked on top of other devices, as this could lead to faulty
operation. If, however, it is necessary to use the device in
the manner stated, this device as well as the other devices
must be monitored to ensure they are working properly.
• The use of accessories other than those specified or pro-
vided by the manufacturer of this device can lead to an
increase in electromagnetic emissions or a decrease in
the device's electromagnetic immunity; this can result in
faulty operation.
• Failure to comply with the above can impair the perfor-
mance of the device.
• Never immerse the device in water or other liquids.
• Do not use in the vicinity of highly flammable substances,
gases or explosives.
Notes on the electrodes
Important
• The electrodes must not be attached to areas of broken
skin.
• Max. recommended output value for electrodes is
5 mA/cm .
2
• Effective current densities over 2 mA/cm
increased attentiveness from the user.
Warning
To avoid damage to health, we strongly advise against
using the device in the following situations:
• Do not use the device if you have a pacemaker
or other implants, such as an insulin pump or
metal implants.
• If you have a high fever (e.g. > 39 °C).
• If you have a known or acute cardiac arrhythmia (arrhythmia),
or disorders of the heart's impulse and conduction system.
• If you suffer from a seizure disorder (e.g. epilepsy).
