Replacement Parts and Wearing Parts
The electrodes are detaching themselves and do not stick to the skin. What should I do?
(1) Clean the adhesive surface of the electrodes with a damp, lint-free cloth. Then let them air dry and attach them again.
(2) Before each application, clean the skin, avoiding using any skin cream or oils before treatment. Shaving can increase adhesion of the electrodes.
The electrodes must be replaced if they still do not stick securely.
Use of worn electrode pads or electrodes which are no longer evenly adhesive may lead to skin injuries as even distribution of the current across the entire area is no longer guaranteed.
Do not use the device until you have replaced the worn electrodes.
For safe and effective use, we recommend that you replace the electrodes after a maximum of 20 uses.

Why use a TENS / EMS device?
Digital TENS/EMS belongs to the group of electrical stimulation systems.
It has three basic functions, which can be used in combination:
1. Electrical stimulation of nerve tracts (TENS).
2. Electrical stimulation of muscle tissue (EMS).
3. A massage effect generated by electrical signals.
For this, the device has four independent stimulation channels and eight self-adhesive electrodes.
It has various versatile functions to increase general wellbeing, alleviate pain, maintain physical fitness, relaxation, revitalise muscles and combat fatigue.
The operating principle of electrical stimulation equipment is based on simulating the body’s own pulses which are transmitted transcutaneously to nerve or muscle fibres by means of electrodes. The electrodes can thereby be attached to many parts of the body, whereby the electrical stimuli are safe and practically painless. You merely feel a gentle prickling or vibrating in some applications. The electrical pulses transmitted to the tissue affect the transmission of stimulation in nerve conductions as well as neural nodes and muscle groups in the field of application.
The effect of electrical stimulation is generally only recognisable after regularly repeated application.
Electrical stimulation does not replace regular exercising of the muscle, but is able to reasonably supplement the effect thereof.
TENS:
TENS, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, means electrical stimulation of nerves through the skin. Any symptoms indicating TENS application must be clarified with the doctor
in charge of your treatment.
TENS is clinically tested and approved with the following applications:
• Back pain, particularly also lumbar and cervical spine problems.
• Joint pain (e.g. knee joint, hip joint, shoulder).
• Neuralgia.
• Headaches.
• Women’s period pains.
• Pain after injuries to musculoskeletal system.
• Pain with circulatory problems.
• Chronic pain through various causes.
EMS:
Electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) is a widespread and generally recognised method and has been used for years in sports and rehabilitation medicine.
In the sports and fitness field, one of the uses of EMS is as a supplement to conventional muscle training. Active application includes the following:
• Muscle training to improve endurance performance and/or
• Muscle training to support the strengthening of certain muscles or muscle groups in order to achieve desired changes to body proportions.
Relaxing application includes the following:
• Muscle relaxation to loosen up muscular tension.
• Improving muscular fatigue symptoms.
• Accelerating muscle regeneration after high muscular performance (e.g. after a marathon).
MASSAGE:
Through integrated massage technology, Digital TENS/EMS also offers the possibility of reducing muscular tension and combating fatigue symptoms using a programme based on real massage in terms of sensation and effect.
