Muscular Placement Stimulation
groups of electrodes positions
Biceps Take up a seated position,
with your forearms resting on
armrests and the palms of
your hands imperatively facing
upwards
Use a fixing system to avoid any
movement of your elbows during
stimulation
Hand Take up a seated position, with
extensors your forearms and the palms of
your hands resting on armrests
Fix your hands solidly to the
armrests
Hand Take up a seated position,
with your forearms resting
flexors
on armrests
Hold a crush-proof object in
your hands so that your fingers
are slightly bent
VI. DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Before using the unit for the first time, you are strongly advised to take careful note
of the counter-indications and safety measures detailed at the beginning of this
manual (chapter I: "Warnings"), as this powerful equipment is neither a toy nor a gadget!

Voluntary start of
the contraction phase
Vigorously contract your biceps,
while trying strongly to move the
palms of your hands towards
your shoulders
Vigorously contract your hand
extensors muscles, while trying
to raise your hands
Strongly contract your hand
flexors muscles, while strongly
trying to grip the object that
you were holding in your hands

2. Connections

The electrical impulses generated by
the Compex are transmitted to the
nerves by self-adhesive electrodes. The choice
of the size, the connection and the correct
positioning of the electrodes are essential
factors for ensuring effective and comfor-
table stimulation. So they require particular
care. To do all this – and for information
on the recommended stimulation positions
– refer to the pictures and pictograms in the
inside cover of the applications manual.
The specific applications also provide
useful relevant information.

Connecting the electrodes
and cables
he electrode cables are connected to
T
the stimulator through sockets on the
base of the device.
our cables can be connected simul-

taneously to the four channels of the
device.
or easier use and better identification
F
of the four channels, we advise you
to follow the colour of the electrode
cables and the stimulator sockets:
blue = channel 1 yellow = channel3
green = channel 2 red = channel 4
n addition to the four classic
I
electrode cables, a fifth electrode
cable is supplied with your Compex.
This cable is equipped with the m—
4 system giving access to all the
m (muscle intelligence) functions of
your stimulator.
he special cable of the m—4
T
system can be connected to any one
of the four sockets of the stimulation
channels located on the front of the
device and two electrodes are "clip-
ped" onto it in the same way as for a
classic cable.
