underside of the device. The plugs have been designed so that they click firmly
into place after insertion (Fig. 4). After connecting the leads to the unit, attach
each lead to an electrode (Fig. 5).
5. The MediStim XP is supplied with a set of electrodes. Remove the liners from
the adhesive side of each pad and position the pads correctly. The electrodes
should be handled as stated in the manual.
Please note the following points:
• A clinician must provide instruction on electrode placement and determine
electrode sizes to be used.
• The safety information provided in this manual must be followed.
• The lead pins must be fully inserted into the electrode connector with no metal
pin visible.
• The complete surface of these electrodes should be in contact with the skin
(refer to example in Fig. 6).
• Once the electrodes are attached, you may separate the leads to allow for better
electrode placement.
• The MediStim XP is equipped with a belt clip. You may attach the unit at the waist
by attaching it to a belt. Alternatively, the unit can be hand-held.
