Neo Stimulation Channel 1 & 2 + EMG Module Manual
• This unit should be operated at 10°C to 45°C and 0% to 90% Relative Humidity.
The unit should be transported and stored at 0°C to 60°C and 0% to 95% Relative
Humidity.
• Device is designed to comply with electromagnetic safety standards. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with instructions, may cause harmful
interference to other devices in the vicinity. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. Harmful interference to
other devices can be determined by turning this equipment on and off. Try to
correct the interference using one or more of the following:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving device
- Increase the separation between the equipment
- Connect the equipment to an outlet on a different circuit from that to
which the other device(s) are connected and consult the factory field
service technician for help.
- Consult your authorized DJO dealer for help.
• Do not operate this unit when connected to any unit other than DJO devices or
accessories specifically described in user or service manuals.
• DO NOT disassemble, modify, or remodel the unit or accessories.This may cause
unit damage, malfunction, electrical shock, fire, or personal injury.
• DO NOT permit foreign materials, liquids or cleaning agents to enter the unit,
including, but not limited to, inflammables, water, and metallic objects from
entering the unit, to prevent unit damage, malfunction, electrical shock, fire, or
personal injury.
• If you have difficulty operating the unit after carefully reviewing this user
manual, contact your DJO dealer for assistance.
DANGER
CAUTION
WARNING
• Stimulus delivered by theTENS waveforms of this device, in certain
configurations, will deliver a charge of 25 microcoulombs (μC) or
greater per pulse and may be sufficient to cause electrocution.
Electrical current of this magnitude must not flow through the
thorax because it may cause a cardiac arrhythmia.
