• Avoid using different size electrodes together can cause skin irritation or increased
stimulation intensity under the smaller electrode. Some programs may require the use of different
sized electrodes for treatment.
• Do not use in the bath or shower, or in an environment of elevated humidity (e.g. Sauna,
hydrotreatment, etc).
