Maintenance

1. Cleaning the Device

• Turn off the device and disconnect all cables before cleaning.
• Wipe the device with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the device in water.
• Ensure the device is completely dry before storing or next use.

2. Caring for Electrode Pads

• After each use, gently remove the pads from your skin and reattach them to their protective film.
• If the pads lose their adhesiveness, clean them with a small amount of water and let them air dry. This can help restore stickiness.
• Replace pads when they no longer adhere well to the skin, as poor adhesion can reduce effectiveness and cause discomfort.
