The first number 2: represents protection against
hard foreign objects with a diameter of .5 inches
(12.5 mm) or larger. The second number 2: represents
protection against drops of water falling vertically
when the housing is tilted by up to 15 degrees. Drops
of water falling at a perpendicular angle have no ef-
fect when the housing is tilted by up to 15 degrees.
Basic information
What are the features of a TENS/EMS device?
The TEN 603 TENS/EMS device is a device for electrical stimula-
tion. It conducts an electric current to the skin.
EMS (electrical muscle stimulation) = Muscle tissue is stimulated
electrically.
TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) =
The nerves are stimulated electrically.
This handy, convenient TENS/EMS device is used to electrically
stimulate targeted areas of the body.
Information on using TENS/EMS
The principle purpose of the TENS/EMS device is to stimulate
the nerves and muscles.
How does TENS work?
According to scientific theory, electrical stimulation therapy
works in several ways:
• The gentle electrical pulses travel through the skin to the
nearby nerves, blocking pain or rather preventing it from
reaching the brain from its point of origin.
• The gentle electrical pulses increase the body's own
production of natural pain-reducing substances such as
endorphins.
