To choose the front muscles, validate with the key: the 1st muscle zone at the bottom blinks: quadriceps.
To choose the back muscles, press the key: the 1st muscle zone at the bottom blinks: gastrocnemius (calves)
To return to the front muscles, press the key.
Press the key to move upwards and scroll the different muscle zones.
To go back, press the key.
After selecting the muscle group, validate using the key

Choosing the 2nd zone
All pictograms blink and the screen displays . The screen proposes to choose a 2nd muscle zone:
To choose a 2nd muscle zone, validate again either the front muscles or the back muscles, validate .
Choose again another muscle zone, then validate key.
Recommendations
The pictograms for upper muscles and for lower muscles are different. Avoid selecting upper muscles and lower muscles, as the
unit would give priority to upper muscles, reducing somewhat the yield of work on lower muscles.
3 SELECTING THE PROGRAM CATEGORY
Symbols of the "Sport" category programs flash while displayed (left side of the screen)
If you choose the SPORT program categories , validate .
To choose the HEALTH program categories , press the key and validate .
Scroll through the program categories by pressing the key:
The screen first displays the 1st lower pictogram while displaying the corresponding category number at the top.
To go back, press the key.

placed correctly on the skin.
6 PROGRAM PERFORMANCE

Use of the (Clear) key
During the program, you can press the key to cancel the ongoing phase.
The next phase starts unless you have reached the end of the program.
In this case, this key allows returning to selecting the 1st muscle zone (as at normal end of program).

Disconnecting the electrodes during the program
If an electrode is disconnected, the channel concerned is reset to and blinks for 30 sec, before returning to a fixed .
