Philips TensRelief 12 selbstklebende Elektroden - Manual (Page 25)

using the device
attaching the electrodes and tEns units
1 Make sure the skin you want to place the
electrodes on looks healthy and is free from
wounds or rashes.
Note: Do not place electrodes on red or inflamed
skin and skin with open wounds, cancerous lesions or
rashes.
2 Clean the skin with a moist cloth and dry it.
The skin you want to place the electrodes
on must be dry, clean and free from cream or
lotion.
Note: Dirt, grease or particles left on the skin may
lodge themselves in the hydrogel of the electrodes. This
has an adverse effect on the adhesive power of the
electrodes.
3 Take the electrodes from the plastic bag and
check them for damage and signs of wear.
Caution: Do not use electrodes whose use-by
date has expired. The use-by date is shown on the
resealable plastic bag.
Note: Replace the electrodes when they are damaged or
dirty, when they have lost their adhesive power or when
the stimulation becomes uncomfortable, i.e. when you
experience an unpleasant stinging or biting sensation.
4 Pull the electrode off the liner and place it on
the skin at the place you want to treat. See
section ‘Electrode placement’ below and the
placement guide at the end of this manual.
