10.1 Setting the operating parameters

We recommend that you consult a doctor or therapist with regard to the
setting of your treatment parameters, including pulse rate, pulse width and
pulse strength.
For the treatment to work successfully it is necessary for the patient to
experience a noticeable tingling feeling or vibration on the skin. If the success
of the treatment begins to wane after a time because the body accustoms itself
to the current settings, the doctor or therapist must re-check and re-set the
treatment parameters. In such a case it may be sensible also to change the
operating mode, i.e. select a modulated operating mode.
1. Open the faceplate.
2. Set the mode:
Move the sliding switch to select one of the three possible operating
modes:
