Charging The Stimulator
The Compex Performance US has
considerable operating autonomy, as it
uses rechargeable batteries.
Remove all stimulation cables connected
to the stimulator before recharging it. To
recharge, use the charger supplied with
your device and connect it to the front of
the device, then plug the charger in a socket.
Never try to plug in stimulation cables
simultaneously with the charger.
We strongly recommend you fully charge
the battery before using it for the first
time as this will improve its autonomy
and life span.

on your body correctly.
• Check whether the electrodes are old,
worn, and/or the contact is poor: try
