Maintenance and Care
- Electrode Care: After each use, place the electrodes back on their protective plastic sheets. Store them in the sealed plastic bag they came in, ideally in a cool, dry place or even the freezer to prolong their stickiness. Clean skin thoroughly before application to prevent oils and dirt from degrading the adhesive.
- Device Cleaning: Wipe the main unit and PODs with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the device in water.
- Storage: When not in use, store the entire kit in the provided rigid travel case to protect it from damage.
- Battery Life: Regularly charge the device and PODs to maintain battery health.
Troubleshooting
| Issue | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No stimulation felt or weak stimulation | Electrodes not making full contact; low battery; incorrect program intensity. | Ensure electrodes are firmly pressed onto clean, dry skin. Recharge device/PODs. Increase intensity gradually. |
| Electrodes losing stickiness | Skin oils/dirt; electrodes are old/worn out. | Clean skin before use. Gently wipe electrodes with a damp cloth (water only). Replace electrodes if necessary. Consider using Compex electrode gel or wraps for extended use. |
| Device not powering on | Battery depleted; device malfunction. | Place device in docking station and charge fully. If issue persists, contact customer support. |
