The chest electrodes should be installed to the following parts:
C1
(
Vl
)
: the fourth intercostal space at the right sternal margin
C2
(
V2
)
: the fourth intercostal space at the left sternal margin
C3
(
V3
)
: between C2 and C4
C4
(
V4
)
: the intersection between midclavicular line and the fifth intercostal space
C5
(
V5
)
: left anterior axillary line on the same plane as C4
C6
(
V6
)
: left midaxillary line on the same plane as C4
Clean the chest skin where the electrodes to be installed with alcohol, and apply some
conductive pastes to these skin (about 25 mm-diameter range) and the edge of the chest electrode
suction cup. Squeeze the suction ball to install the chest electrode at the positions of Cl-C6.
Note: The conductive paste coating should be separated from each other, and the chest
electrodes should not touch each other to avoid short circuit.
6.4.2 Limb electrodes
The limb electrodes should be placed on the soft skin of both hands and feet. Before
connecting, clean the skin of the electrode installation area with alcohol, and then apply a small
amount of conductive paste on the cleaned skin. The electrode connection of the limbs is shown
in Figure 6-4.

Note:
In practical use, if the electrode mark is inconsistent with the mark described in the
user manual, please follow the European/American standard in below table to use.
The correspondence of electrodes in each standard is shown in Table 6-1:
