STEP 1—GETTING STARTED... INSTALL THE BATTERY
To open the Battery
Compartment, slide nger nail
under compartment edge and
release the latch. Use a 9 Volt
alkaline battery or equivalent.
Snap in negative (-) battery
terminal rst, then positive (+).
Route wires to right side as
shown, insert battery and close.

STEP 2—DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS
Start Settings:
• Intensity Dial at “0”
• Power Switch to “On”
• Polarity to “Normal”
• Pulse Width to “150”

STEP 3—GET ACQUAINTED WITH THE FEEL OF THERAPY
STEP 4—LOCATE THE EXACT PAIN AREA
Moisten the palm of the hand with
clean tap water using a moist towel.
Place the device on the palm of the
hand and slowly increase intensity
from “0” to the highest comfortable
setting. Tingling or vibration
sensation is normal. Repeat this step
with Pulse Width set at 230. Higher
settings decrease treatment time.
Locate the most sensitive pain point
by pressing around the pain area
until the most painful point is found.
For larger pain areas see Step 7.

STEP 5—MOISTEN SKIN OR APPLY GEL
STEP 6—APPLY THERAPY TO PAIN
Moisten the skin in the area of pain
with gel or clean tap water using a
moist towel. (Apply a small amount of
“Spectra 360 Gel” as needed. Water
alone provides good conduction for
most users.)
Place the device over the most
sensitive pain area. Set the intensity
to “0” and choose the pulse width.
Turn the power on and slowly
increase the intensity to the highest
comfortable setting. Press and hold
as shown for 2–4 minutes or as
needed to relieve pain.

STEP 7—APPLYING THERAPY TO LARGER PAIN AREAS
A: If the pain area is larger than ¾
inch, repeat Step 6 by positioning
the device to the left and to the
right of the original position. Be
sure to reduce the intensity to “0”
when changing positions.
Note: Position 1 is the original
position. Position 2 is roughly ¾
inch to the left.
B: Continue to change positions
across the pain area to provide
therapy to the entire area. Do
not exceed 30 minutes overall
treatment time in one session.
Note: Position 2 is roughly ¾
inch to the left of the original
position. Position 3 is roughly ¾
inch to the right.

HELPFUL HINTS
• The treatment time varies with the level of
pain and will vary from person to person.
• Always press while holding and do not set the
Intensity higher than is comfortable for you.
Higher Intensity levels will normally shorten
treatment time but comfort during treatment
is highly important.
• Once you use the device a few times, you will
quickly get acquainted with the best methods
and treatment times for best results.

5 SECRETS FOR SUCCESSFUL PAIN RELIEF
1. ALWAYS PRESET THE INTENSITY CONTROL TO ZERO BEFORE AND AFTER USING
Before pressing Solis to your skin, make sure the Intensity is set at zero or you
may feel an initial uncomfortable tingling. Start treatment by gradually increasing
the Intensity to the maximum tolerable level and stay at that setting during
treatment. The maximum tolerable level may vary with each treatment session.
2. ALWAYS MOISTEN THE SKIN BEFORE USING
Moistening the skin with gel or water is necessary to maximize conduction of the
gentle low voltage electrical pulses from Solis. This electrical stimulation of the
nerve blocks the pain signals to the brain to alleviate symptoms.
3. EXPECT A PERIOD OF ADJUSTMENT
After using Solis for a while, you will be able to locate symptom areas much
easier. You will become accustomed to the tingling sensation during treatment
and be able to use Solis quickly and more effectively. With continued use, you
should also be able to use it comfortably at higher Intensity levels which will
reduce your treatment time.
4. ALWAYS TREAT THE ENTIRE PAIN CENTER
Press the finger on and around the pain center to determine its size. Be sure to
repeat treatment with Solis as needed by moving the device in ¾ inch steps to
treat the entire pain center.
5. BE SURE TO READ THE OPERATION MANUAL
We want you to get the very best results from using Solis. Please read your User
Manual before using. This Manual was designed to help you get the most benefit
from your Solis.
