This section explains how to apply the large electrode pads when using any of the knee programs from the Revitive app.
It is important to use the knee program only with the large Revitive electrode pads.
Small electrode pads are not suitable for use with the knee programs.
The electrode pads cannot be used at the same time as the foot-pads.
Using the electrode pads will automatically turn the foot-pads off.
Do NOT use the electrode pads on your head, face, neck or chest.
Electrode pads are for single person use only. Do not share electrode pads with others.
a Refer to steps b to d of Medic Coach - Using the Dual Mode Body Pads for preparation before applying the large electrode pads.
b Gently press one large electrode pad across your thigh (1), a few centimetres away from your groin area, with the adhesive side against the skin..
Gently press second large electrode pad across your thigh (2), a few centimetres from the top of your kneecap, with the adhesive side against the skin.
The large electrode pads do not need to be lined up exactly with each other. They need to be in a position that is comfortable and that allows you to see your thigh muscles contract & relax.
Adjusting the intensity level in the Knee Programs
At the start of each knee program there will be 30 seconds of stimulation to help you set the right intensity level. This is followed by a rest period of 30 seconds, when you will feel no stimulation. For the remainder of the therapy session you will feel the stimulation as described in the 'Knee Programs' section above.
It is not possible to adjust the intensity during the rest periods. The app and device display will pulse, indicating a “pause”.
You can adjust the intensity when you can feel the stimulation being applied to your thigh and the app and device display are not pulsing.
c Refer to Medic Coach - Using the foot-pads which explain how to control the stimulation from the app.
The knee programs can be automatically selected as part of your suggested Therapy Plan or manually, by tapping the program name at the top of the controller screen when no stimulation is running.
Auto-pause will occur if a pad is disconnected from the body or a cable is disconnected. Reconnecting and tapping play will re-start the stimulation.
d Remove and store the large electrode by following the instructions in Medic Coach - Using the Dual Mode Body Pads.
