Safe Use of the Active Accessory
Examine the connection of Handpiece and connectors to the System before using.
Ensure that the accessory functions as intended. Improper connection may result
in arcs and sparks, accessory malfunction, or unintended treatment effects.
Do not wrap the Handpiece cords around metal objects. It may induce current that
could lead to electrical shocks, fire or injury to the patient or personal.
Ensure that electrodes are in full contact with the skin.
Bad coupling of both electrodes with the skin result in a specific warning sound, a
message on the screen, and disabling of RF.
Do not connect a wet accessory to the System.
Do not immerse the applicator under water at any time.
