PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING ELECTRODES
CAUTION
• Only use electrodes supplied by DJO, LLC� Other electrodes may have electrical properties that are
unsuitable for the Compex Wireless USA stimulator�
• Do not use electrodes with a surface <16 cm² (2�94 in²), as there will be a risk of suffering a burn injury�
Caution should always be exercised with current densities > 2mA/cm² (12�9 mA/in²)�
• Always turn off the stimulator before moving or removing any electrodes during a session�
• Do not place the electrodes in water�
• Do not apply solvents of any kind to the electrodes�
• For best results, wash and clean the skin of any oil and dry it before attaching the electrodes�
• Attach the electrodes in such a way that their entire surface is in contact with the skin�
• For obvious reasons of hygiene, each user must have his/her own
electrode set� Do not use the same electrodes on different people�
• Never use a set of adhesive electrodes for more than 15 sessions
as their bonding power deteriorates over time and optimal contact is very important for both user comfort
and efficacy�
• Some people with very sensitive skin may experience redness under the electrodes after a session�
Generally, this redness is completely harmless and disappears after 10 to 20 minutes� Never start another
stimulation session in the same area, however, if the redness is still visible�
