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.
