Ultrastim Snap Electrodes - Comfortable and Smooth Power Distribution for Sensitive Skin

Summary
Ultrastim Snap Electrodes are designed to provide smooth and comfortable power distribution during neurostimulation. They are specially designed for use with EMS and TENS applications, and are suitable for people with sensitive skin. With a patented silver grid technology and advanced blue hydrogel, these electrodes provide unique comfort and durability during treatment.

Benefits and Properties

• Steady power distribution: The patented silver grid structure ensures even distribution of electric current over the electrode, which provides a more comfortable treatment.
• Reduces edge irritation: The electrodes have a wide edge that ensures a controlled power shutdown and reduces discomfort as an edge stinging.
• Gentle on the skin: Ultrastim Snap Electrodes are equipped with blue hydrogel specifically designed for sensitive skin, minimizing the risk of irritation.
• Long life: The water -repellent top layer protects the electrodes and extends the use period.
• Easy to remove: The extended edge simplifies the removal of the electrodes without damaging the skin or reducing the durability of the electrodes.

Technical specifications

• Size: 5 x 5 cm
• Number of electrodes per package: 4
• Material: Silver grid pattern, blue hydrogel, water repellent substance
• Uses: EMS and TENS applications

Manual

1. Make sure the skin is clean, dry and free of lotion before applying.
2. Attach the wires to the electrodes.
3. Remove the protective film from the electrode and take care of it.
4. Apply the electrode gently on the skin, start from the center and smoothly towards the edges.
5. Attach the wires to the stimulator and adjust the intensity according to the instruction manual (not exceed 0.1 watts/cm²).
6. After use, turn off the stimulator and remove the electrodes by lifting gently at the edge.

Maintenance and storage

• Put on the protective film after use and store the electrodes in the original packaging.
• To extend the life, apply gently one or two drops of water on the gel surface if the adhesion is weakened.
• Store in a dry and cool place.

Warnings and precautions

• Do not use the electrodes on damaged or irritated skin.
• The electrodes are intended for personal use and should not be divided between persons.
• Do not remove the electrodes by pulling the cord.
• Do not use the electrodes over the head, on the front of the neck or over the heart.
• End immediately use the use if skin irritation or burns occur and contact a doctor.
• Do not use the electrodes while driving or serving machinery.
