Please note also the following instructions:
Biolito is type BF equipment and may not be immersed in liquids.
Burn marks could occur underneath the electrodes if used with surgical high frequency
apparatus.
If device operation occurs close to short wave, microwave, cellular or other wireless equipment,
instability of the values of the stimulator could occur causing a temporary reduction in current.
The application of the electrodes nearby the thorax can increase the risk of cardiac fibrillation.
If in the case of treatment with the probe, pain or irritation appear in the area of the pelvis, or
bleeding in-between menstruation, interrupt the therapy and consult your doctor.
Patients with metal and/or electronic implants may only stimulate with permission of an
experienced doctor.
Stimulation in the areas of tumors is allowed only by instruction of the specialized physician.
The Biolito may not be operated if the battery compartment is not closed.
Before opening the battery compartment, make sure that there are no lead wires in
the jacks at the head of the unit to eliminate any possibility of current flow.
The operator should not touch the battery contacts & patient simultaneously.
Never connect the device directly to a battery charger or to any other mains powered equipment.
If using rechargeable batteries be sure to use a CE approved battery charger.
If you have swallowed any part of the device or any of its accessories, please contact a doctor

well as by children under the guidance of a doctor or therapist only.
Please don't use a probe during menstrual period or pregnancy.
Please, keep this device stored out of the reach of children. Do not leave the lead wires in
reach of children, since strangulation is possible due to the length of the lead wires.
