INDICATION FOR USE
The TENS and MIC modes are often prescribed for:
• Symptomatic relief of chronic pain
• Post traumatic pain
• Post surgical pain
TENS is a non-invasive, drug-free method of controlling pain
that uses tiny electrical impulses sent to the nerves to modify
your perception of pain. TENS does not cure any physiological
problem; it only helps control pain.
MIC stimulation consists of a very low current sent into the
cells of the body. The current is so faint it is measured in
millionths of an amp (or microamps) and is often not felt by
the user. MIC increases energy production in cells of your body
and increases tissue healing rates.

IMPORTANT TIPS AND SAFETY FEATURES
Adjust intensity by pressing the intensity
control s and t buttons. Slowly press the
appropriate intensity button control until
you reach the setting recommended by your
physician or therapist. Repeat for the other
channel, if both channels are to be used.
If the stimulation levels are or become
uncomfortable, reduce the stimulation
intensity to a comfortable level and
contact your medical practitioner if
problems persist.
In the TENS therapeutic mode, if the electrodes are not placed rmly on the skin or the
device is not connected to the electrodes, the stimulator’s output surpasses 12mA and
will cancel out by automatically resetting to 0mA.
The Safety Lock Feature automatically activates after there is no operation in
the panel for 30 seconds by locking out the ability to press the buttons. This is a safety
feature to prevent accidental changes to your settings and to prevent accidental
increases to the intensity levels. You can press either one of the t buttons to unlock
the device.
Once you have activated the treatment timer, you can press the M button or the
t button to control stop the treatment.
Turn o the device by pressing and holding the power on/o button for
