APPLICATION PRINCIPLES:
1.
Find the exact pain point or the area where the muscles ache most.
A.
For best relief of pain, place the electrode pair from one channel on either side of the pain (See Figure 1: Twin mode).
You may also place one electrode pair on the area of pain and the other pair near the area of pain.
B.
Fixing the two or four pads respectively on the opposite sides of the body is not recommended and provides little benefit
(See Figure 2).
1.
Intensity: The intensity can be gradually increased by one point. Always stay below the point of discomfort.
RECOMMENDED APPLICATION DURATION AND MODE SELECTION:
During initial use, choose Mode 1 at a low Intensity level for 10 minutes up to 3 times
a day. You may increase the intensity and time after you have become familiar with
the device and feel of the stimulation. It is recommended to become familiar with all
the modes and intensity levels you find the most relief with. Remember, all modes are
designed to relieve pain. However, it is difficult to recommend one specific mode for a
type of pain as this is usually determined by the individual's preference.
•
If you do not feel any pain relief after having tried different modes and
intensity levels, it is recommended that you consult your physician.
•
If the stimulation sensation becomes weaker or disappears, you may
increase the intensity by pressing the up key (+). If the stimulation becomes
uncomfortable, press the down key (-) to decrease the intensity.
ALWAYS STAY UNDER THE POINT OF DISCOMFORT!
•
If you experience an adverse reaction (skin
irritation/redness/burns/other painful sensation), or if you feel unusual
discomfort, stop using the device immediately.
•
Many people experience immediate relief from muscle pain, while
others require several days of regular use to feel the benefits. The
results vary and will depend upon your underlying conditions and how
often you use the device. If your pain does not improve, you can try to
increase the intensity and time or change the mode.
ELECTRODE PADS GUIDELINES:
1.
Use the electrode pads supplied by the manufacturer only; other electrodes may present a risk of unsuitable electrical
characteristics with your stimulator.
2.
Do not use the electrode pads on different people. Skin reaction or cross contamination may occur.
3.
Always turn off device before removing or repositioning the electrodes.
4.
Wash skin thoroughly, and then dry it before applying the electrodes.
5.
Apply the whole surface of the electrode pads firmly to the skin. Do not use electrodes that do not stick properly to the skin or
only partially stick to the skin.
6.
In case of skin redness under the electrodes after a stimulation session, do not start a new session in the same place if skin
redness is still evident.
READJUSTMENTS, ALTERATIONS, AND REPAIRS:
1.
Do not disassemble, repair or modify the device without authorization. This will void any warranty on the product.
2.
The manufacturer is only responsible for the safety and performance of AP212 when readjustments, alterations, and repairs
are carried out by authorized individuals and when the AP212 is used in accordance with the user instructions.
3.
Qualified technicians who are familiar with the technical features of the device have been provided with circuit diagrams, PCB
drawings, component lists, and setting instructions by the manufacturer.
