How to place electrodes
Body Clock TENS units are supplied with 2
x 2 (50mm x 50mm) self-adhesive
rectangular electrodes These are
consumable items that can be re-ordered
from Body Clock.
•
Store electrodes in packaging provided in
a cool dry place.
•
A key to successful use of the stimulator
is finding the best placement for the
electrodes. You may need to try several
electrode locations before you find the
best one to intercept your pain.
•
Before placing the electrodes on your
skin, wash the area with mild soap and
water and then thoroughly rinse and dry.
•
Trim excess body hair, which could
interfere with smooth electrode contact
with the skin, but do not shave it.
•
Do not place electrodes on cut, broken or
irritated skin.
•
Moisturizing cream may be applied after
treatment, but not before.
•
Never place or remove the electrodes,
test or wet them while the system is
turned on and connected to the
electrodes. Failure to comply can result
in a sudden unpleasant sensation on
your fingertips.
Lead Wires
The lead wires are made of high quality
shielded wiring. They are made from fine
wire to be flexible and lightweight and if
treated gently are designed for long life.
The pin ends of the leadwires are inserted
into the electrodes.
