How to use the device
Warnings
It is recommended to read this manual carefully before using the device. For any further infor-
mation and details we advise you to visit our website www.wepere.com/en and refer to the
section dedicated to magnetotherapy. In that section, within the LOB product page, a copy of the
most updated revision of this user manual can be consulted under the heading “User Manual”.
Nevertheless, please follow the following instructions:
• Check the location and meaning of all labels affixed to the device;
• Do not damage the applicator by acting on the connecting wire, also avoid winding the wire
around the applicator or around the device;
• Check the integrity of the power supply each time it is used. Avoid use in the case of signs of
damage to the casing or to the connecting wire;
• People who are not properly trained and who have not read this manual must not use the
device;
• Avoid using the device while using ointments containing free ions of magnetisable metals;
• Avoid using the device in humid environments and/or in the presence of flammable agents;
• During therapy, the user and the patient are advised not to wear metal objects;
• Position the applicator in such a way that the green side is in contact with the user’s skin;
• Use only cables and applicators supplied by the Manufacturer. Inadequate cables and
applicators could damage the device and/or cause harm to the patient;
• The user must periodically check the insulation (integrity) of the applicators and their cables
and check that they are not damaged (contacting the manufacturer if needed);
• The user must pay attention when using the connecting cables of the belt and the power
supply: strangulation risk.
• The materials used for producing the device exceed the required standards regarding
material toxicity. In case of allergic reactions, discontinue therapy and consult a doctor.
• Do not connect the device and its accessories to other devices not indicated in this manual.
• Keep out of the reach of children and animals.
• Avoid exposing the device and its accessories to excessive direct light and dust.
Refer to the indications in the paragraph “How to look after the device”;
• Use the device only with the supplied power supply model.
CAUTION.
Disconnect the power supply from the wall socket at the end of the therapy session.
The manufacturer is to be considered responsible for the safety, reliability and performance of
the device provided that:
• any additions, modifications and/or repairs are carried out by personnel authorised directly
by the manufacturer.
• the electrical system of the environment in which LOB is inserted complies with
national laws.
• the devices are used in strict compliance with the instructions reported in this manual.
Electromagnetic interference
It is advisable to use the device at a distance of at least 3 meters from televisions, monitors, mo-
bile phones, WI-FI routers or any other electronic equipment as these devices could affect the
operation of the device.
The device must be installed and operated in accordance with the electromagnetic compatibility
information contained in this manual. See also the paragraph EMC tables.
The use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified, with the exception
of those sold by the manufacturer as replacement parts for internal components, may result in
increased emissions and decreased immunity.
The device should not be used near or placed on top of other equipment and, if it is necessary to
use it near or placed on top of other equipment, it should be observed to check normal operation
in the configuration in which it is used.
Radiation emitted for therapeutic purposes
The radiation emitted by the LOB device is the one produced by a pulsed electromagnetic field
(CEMP). The magnetic field is induced by the passage of electric current through coils, made up
of windings of copper cable. This magnetic field is pulsed as the generating electric current is not
continuous (stationary) but pulsed (square wave electric pulse) with specific frequencies (fixed,
if the programs with preset parameters are used, free if the Free Memory programs are used. ).
The maximum intensity of the magnetic field generated by the LOB device is 100 Gauss per
channel with the use of the professional applicator with a pair of two solenoids.
The frequency range of the square wave generating the CEMP is 1-75 Hz.
