10. TROUBLESHOOTING

THE STIMULATION DOES NOT FEEL THE SAME AS USUAL
· Check that all settings are correct (see section
correctly placed.
· Slightly change the position of the electrodes.
THE STIMULATION FEELS UNPLEASANT
· The skin is irritated. For advice on skin care, see chapter PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE.
· The electrodes begin to lose their stickiness and do not stick properly to the skin. Moisten the adhesive
surface with a few drops of water before placing on the skin.
· The electrodes are worn out and need to be replaced.
· There is insufficient electrode gel on the carbon rubber electrodes.
· Slightly change the position of the electrodes.
THE STIMULATION FEELS WEAK OR NOT AT ALL
· Check if the batteries need to be replaced, see chapter REPLACEMENT OF BATTERIES.
· Electrodes are too old and need replacement.
THE BROKEN CIRCUIT SYMBOL IS SHOWN ON THE DISPLAY SYMBOL
The broken circuit symbol indicates that the resistance is too high, or that a cable is broken.
· A too high resistance can be caused by a bad connection between the electrodes and your skin, or that
the electrodes need to be replaced.
· A cable breakage can be checked by pressing the cable´s pins against one another while increasing
the amplitude for the corresponding channel to 11 mA. If the amplitude now drops to 0.0 mA and
starts flashing, the cable needs to be replaced.
Note! Never increase the amplitude above 20 mA when you check for cable breaks, since this can
damage the stimulator.
THE STIMULATOR IS NOT WORKING
If the error symbol appears on the display when you start the stimulator, it means that the stimulator
is broken and needs to be replaced.
Note! Do not use the stimulator – contact your Cefar dealer.
Cefar will only be responsible for service and repairs performed by Cefar or a distributor appointed by
Cefar.
