You have recently acquired the electro-musculation device with accessories, designed, produced and manufactured by SPORT-
ELEC® INSTITUT (France). We thank you for your purchase and suggest that you read attentively the following paragraphs for an
optimal use of the device. SPORT-ELEC® is specifically designed to enhance the abdominal area and the butts.
GEnERALITIES
BODY CONTROL SYSTEM (BSC) is conceived for women and men who care about their appearance.
BCS is a device which uses electrical stimulation through the "contraction-release" effect on muscles that you want to work.
The aim of the BCS is to refine your silhouette by acting on the muscular masses (waist, Abs, butt muscles, thighs, and legs).
BCS contains 4 programs for a more particular development of certain muscles (pectoral, abdominal, biceps...) resulting from
SPORT-ELEC® research. The frequencies and impulsions width of each program have been defined to meet perfectly everybody's
requirements :
• Work the muscle gently and facilitate its recovery after an effort
• Improve the firmness of tissues
• Reshape the silhouette
In conclusion, according to our activity, some muscles are more or less developed, the others atrophy on the contrary.
Our body contains more than 600 muscles. The shape and harmony of our body depends on these muscles.
BCS allows activating the set of muscles without any effort from you. Its daily use will restore vigour of your muscle structure.
ThERAPEuTIC APPLICATIonS
- Private: to strengthen and / or to maintain muscle strength.
- Physiotherapists: to ease muscular tensions.
- In hospital environment: to prevent muscular atrophy and to treat pain.
WARnInG
READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BEFORE USE :
Prior to use, check the following points :
The device will stop if you try to start a program without
f
positionning the belt on the body on first.
The device must be fully connected to all the 4 connecting
f

The generator is provided with a safety system to avoid
incorrect handling of the device by users. If you move with
accessories attached and a partial loss of contact between
electrodes and the skin occurs, the device will stop (safety
stop).
I. InSERTIon oF BATTERIES
Check that the device is switched off.
Open the "batteries" compartment, insert three 1,5 V AA LR6 alkaline batteries into the compartment then close the case.
Comply with + and - indications (photo II - A page 2).
Do not mix used and good batteries.
For an optimal use of your device, it is advised to use good quality batteries.
II. STARTInG ThE unIT
Your electro-stimulation device is an appliance at the state-of-the-art technically, its design is based on standards EN 60601-1 and

The interface "man machine" is simplified and realized by means of numbers and function keys.
From 1 to 4, the number in black indicates you the program chosen by pressing the "P" key.
Two graduated scales (1 by output) indicate you 64 power levels.
You also find 6 order keys (scheme, page 10) :
