CONTRA-INDICATIONS:
CONTRA-INDICATIONS:
Do not use if:
• You have an electronic implant (e.g. cardiac pacemaker or defibrillator,
as
SLENDERTONE REVIVE S5 may interfere with the proper functioning of
the implanted stimulator) or if you suffer from any other heart prob-
lem.
• You suffer from cancer or have cancerous lesions. The effects of
electronic stimulation on cancerous tissue are unknown.
• You suffer from epilepsy.
• You have recently undergone a surgical procedure.
• Following acute trauma or fracture.
• You have any other form of electronic implant. The safety has not
been established for the use of electronic muscle stimulators over
electronic implants.
• You are pregnant. The safety of electronic muscle stimulation (EMS)
over the pregnant uterus has not been established.
• You are under medical supervision for cognitive dysfunction as you
may not be able to comply with safety instructions.
• In cases of critical ischemia of the limbs.
• The unit is in close proximity (e.g., 1 yard) to shortwave or microwave
therapy equipment or you are connected to high-frequency surgical
equipment (e.g. diathermy), because of the risk of device malfunction
due to electronic interference.
• Wearing the device necessitates placement over areas at which drugs/
medicines are administered (short-term or long-term) by injection
(e.g., hormone treatment
S).
PRECAUTIONS:
PRECAUTIONS:
• Get your doctor’s permission before using
SLENDERTONE REVIVE S5 if:
- You wish to use
SLENDERTONE REVIVE S5 and have a bad back. You
should also ensure the intensity is kept low.
- You have any serious illness or injury not mentioned in this guide.
- You take insulin for diabetes.
- You suffer from muscle or joint problems.
- You experience any irritation, skin reaction, hypersensitivity, or
other adverse reaction. You should, however, note that some red-
dening of the skin under the GelPads is quite normal during and for
a short time after an exercise session.
• After strenuous exercise or exertion, always use a lower intensity to
avoid muscle fatigue.
• Contact
SLENDERTONE or an authorized dealer if your unit is not working
correctly. Do not use in the meantime.
• An effective session should not cause undue discomfort.
• For first time users, muscle stimulation can be an unusual sensation.
We recommend that you begin in a seated position with low stimulation
intensity settings to familiarize yourself with the sensation before
progressing to higher intensity settings.
• Keep your unit out of the reach of children.
• The leads and GelPads must not be connected to other objects.
• Do not use your unit at the same time as any other device which
transfers an electrical current into the body (e.g., another stimulator).
• Do not touch the GelPads or lead pins while the unit is switched on.
• Do not use while driving, operating machinery or cycling.
• Cease using your unit if you are feeling light headed or faint. Consult
your doctor if this happens.
• Do not over exert yourself when using muscle stimulation. Any workout
should be at a level comfortable for you.
• Do not place GelPads over jewellry or body piercings.
SLENDERTONE will not accept responsibility if the guidelines and instruc-
tions supplied with this unit are not followed
