Advice on Application of Electrodes

Make sure that SineBravo is turned off (no indication visible on the LCD display).
Now connect the single poled ends of the lead wires with the electrodes.
The output plugs of the electrode cables will be plugged into the channels A or B of the
SineBravo. The reference cable will be connected to its jack as well.
Furthermore make sure, that all plugs fit completely into the electrode sockets as well as the
device sockets.
If you are using a probe, lubricate it with water or a gel suitable for electrotherapy.
Now place the electrodes or the probe according to the instructions of your doctor or
physiotherapist. The self-adhesive skin electrodes are provided with a sticky gel and can be re-
used after removal from the skin. Replace these electrodes when the adhesive force is weak.
Electrodes which are damaged due to careless handling may not be used again.
Electrodes with damaged cable insulation (e.g. visible copper wire) may not be used.
Electrodes with damaged, missing or stained aluminium coating or carbon layer, also with
insufficient adhesive gel may not be used.
Electrodes may not be altered or tampered with (e.g. by scissors or other tools).
Do not pull the electrodes by force on the electrode cable. To remove the electrodes from the
skin, please lift the electrode at the rim towards the middle.
Do not use electrodes with ointments or creams (especially which enhance the blood flow or act
as local anaesthesia).
Apply the electrodes on clean and unwounded skin only.
In the case of strong bodily hair growth, the hair should be shaved or shortened with scissors.
Neither stretch the skin nor the electrodes when applying the electrodes.
For standard treatment we recommend the use of our self-adhesive electrodes with a minimum
area of 40x40 mm. This size is suited for the reference electrode as well. For best results please
make sure that it will be placed on a bone near the treatment area, not on muscles.
For treatment of the muscles of the pelvic floor we recommend the use of our vaginal-
(IncoProbe V) or rectal-probes (IncoProbe R).
After using a probe, please clean it carefully with a mild detergent without alcohol and dry it
completely after each use.
After all electrodes have been removed, wash the skin with mild soap and rinse thoroughly.
Then dry your skin.
All electrodes or probes are made for use of one single person only.
Skin electrodes as well as probes can contain amounts of nickel. Allergy sufferers should check
this before using. Should skin irritation occur whilst using the SineBravo, please interrupt the
application and inform your doctor, so that an allergic reaction can be excluded.
