Note
In case of feeling a tingle or burning on your skin during the usage
please lower the intensity. The efficiency is independent from the
above. When hypersensitive to metal, we gladly exchange the metal
bracelets with cloth bracelets.
The good effect of the earthing (so called negative ions) occurs only
if the power socket is properly earthed. Be sure to check this with the
power socket tester.
Warning
The use of the earthing plug (or any other electrical
appliances) to an incorrect power socket can be
perilous.
Do not use the earthing cable during a thunderstorm.
