Precautions when using the
electrodes
■ Only use electrodes supplied by
Compex. Other electrodes may have
electrical properties that are
unsuitable for the Compex stimulator.
■
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.
