※ To avoid the eects of electromagnetic interference, never use the device
in the EMG mode, within 4 metres of a mobile telephone or near any
other powerful radio interference producing equipment that causes
electrical sparks etc. In the EMG mode, the device may be susceptible to
strong interfering radio type emissions that may lead to temporally
increased EMG microvolt readings. The reading will immediately return
to the correct value when the interference ceases. (Remember that a
relaxed muscle should read below 4μV).
※ Patient electrodes including all skin surface electrodes, vaginal and rectal
probe are for single patient use only!
※ Do not use stimulation on your facial area unless you are under strict
guidance from a qualied clinician.
※ Application of electrodes near the thorax may increase the risk of cardiac
brillation.
※ Operation in close proximity (e.g. 1m) to a shortwave or microwave
therapy equipment may produce instability in the stimulator output.
※ Simultaneous connection of a patient to a high frequency surgical
equipment may result in burns at the site of the stimulator electrodes
and possible damage to the stimulator.
※ No modication of this equipment is allowed!
※ Keep the device out of reach of children
※ Skin irritation from the electrode gel and electrode burns are potential
adverse reactions. If skin irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult
your physician.
※ Do not apply stimulation over the patient's neck because this could cause
severe muscle spasms resulting in closure of the airway, diculty in
breathing, or adverse eects on heart rhythm or blood pressure.
