How do I get the most from Revitive?
For best results:
• Use Revitive foot-pads for at least 30 - 60 minutes each day, 7 days a week.
• It is important to use Revitive at a high enough intensity to give you a strong comfortable muscle contraction. Most people achieve a strong muscle contraction over intensity level 40 (intensity range 1 99).
• If you are diagnosed with a long term medical condition such as High Blood Pressure, High Cholesterol,
Diabetes, Osteoarthritis, Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI), Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD), or COPD, it
can take up to 8 weeks to help reduce symptoms associated with these chronic conditions.
Do not use Revitive, using EMS stimulation, for more than 6 sessions of 30 minutes (or the equivalent) per day.
a Remove all parts from the box:
• AC/DC power adaptor
• Body Pads
• Remote control
• Revitive Advanced
• Electrode cord
• AAA batteries x 2
See What’s in the Box? to help identify the parts.
b Locate the remote control and insert the batteries
Before you use Revitive for the first time, read the Warnings and Cautions
If in doubt, consult your doctor before using the product.
a Turn the device over so that you can see the IsoRocker® and IsoRocker Disabler.
• The IsoRocker allows Revitive to rock while stimulating your legs & feet.
• Revitive will begin rocking on the IsoRocker once muscle contractions are strong enough.
• The Isorocker feature can be disabled, by ‘opening’ the IsoRocker Disabler.
Revitive will then be static and it will not rock during use.
b If you want to use the IsoRocker, leave the IsoRocker Disabler in place (ie flat) on the of the device, as
shown.
c If you do not want to use the IsoRocker
• Open the IsoRocker Disabler on the bottom of Revitive.
• Pull the IsoRocker Disabler back until it clicks
• To re-enable the IsoRocker, pull the IsoRocker Disabler and press into place on the bottom of the device (ie flat). open, as shown
d Locate the AC/DC power adaptor.
e Plug the small end of the power cord into the socket on the side of the Revitive.
f Plug the power adaptor into the nearest electrical socket.
a It is important that you are hydrated. We recommend drinking a glass of water before using Revitive.
You may also apply a moisturiser to the soles of the feet to help hydrate the skin.
Hint: Applying a moisturiser to the soles of the feet before using Revitive can help improve the delivery of
electrical stimulation.
b Get into a comfortable seated position.
For best results sit with your knees at a 90 degree angle (right angle).
c Place Revitive on the floor in front of you.
Revitive is designed to be used while seated.
Never stand on the Revitive unit.
d Place both bare feet on the foot-pads.
Make sure you remove all footwear, including socks/ stockings.
e Press the power button on the device or on the remote control to turn Revitive on.
You will hear a beep and the display lights will light up.
The time will read 30 minutes and Intensity will read 00.
To turn off Revitive at any time during operation, press the power button on the device or on the remote
control.
f Press the (+) Intensity Control one time to start stimulation.
You can use the buttons on the control panel or remote control.
Press the (+) button to increase the level.
Press the (–) button to decrease the level.
g Ensure you familiarise yourself with the feeling of Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS). Use on a low
intensity for 30-60 minutes once per day for a few days.
Set the intensity at a level where you can feel the stimulation in your feet and which creates a calf
contraction.
It is normal to feel tingling or varying sensations in your calf muscles.
Revitive does not vibrate.
h After a few days of familiarisation, use a higher intensity that provides you with strong but comfortable calf muscle contractions.
Most people experience a strong contraction at intensity level 40 or over. You can set the intensity between 1-99.
Please note that the intensity required may vary from day to day.
If you feel pain or discomfort:
• Remove one or both feet from the foot-pads to stop the stimulation
• Lower the intensity of the foot-pads using the (–) Intensity
Control on the control panel, or remote control, before replacing your feet on Revitive
i The Time Display will start to count down in minutes as Revitive cycles through its program.
j When Revitive times out, the Time Display reads 00 and you will hear three beeps.
k The Revitive switches itself off automatically
Electrode Body Pads are for single person use only. Do NOT share body pads with others.
Revitive comes with one pair of reusable (up to 20-30 applications) Electrode Body Pads that can be used to deliver electrical stimulation to the back, shoulders, thighs, knees or arms.
The Body Pads cannot be used at the same time as the foot-pads. Using the Body Pads will automatically turn the foot-pads off.
Use Revitive Body Pads in EMS mode as and when required, from 30 minutes per day.
Do not use Revitive in EMS mode for more than 6 sessions of 30 minutes (or the equivalent) per day. This may result in muscle fatigue.
a Select the area you wish to apply electrical stimulation to.
Example Body Pad placements are shown below:
Do NOT use the Body Pads on your head, face, neck or chest
b Clean and dry the area where you will place the Body Pads.
c Make sure Revitive is switched off. If the control panel is still illuminated, press the power button and turn Revitive off.
d Attach the ends of the Body Pads to the Electrode cord.
Press connectors until there is no gap between them.
Leaving a gap may cause discomfort.
e Plug the other end of the Electrode cord into the socket on the side of Revitive.
Plugging in the Electrode cord will automatically turn the foot-pads off.
f Remove the plastic liner from the Body Pads, by peeling it off carefully. Replace the Body Pads onto
the plastic liner after use.
g Press the Body Pads on the area you wish to apply electrical stimulation to, by, gently pressing the adhesive side against the skin.
h Press the power button on the device or on the remote control to turn Revitive on.
You will hear a beep and the display lights will light up.
The time will read 30 minutes and the Intensity will read 00
i Press the (+) Intensity Control, one time, to start stimulation.
You can use the buttons on the device or remote control.
Press the (+) button to increase the level.
Press the (–) button to decrease the level.
j Ensure you familiarise yourself with the feeling of Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS). Use on a low
intensity for 30 minutes once per day for a few days.
Set the intensity at a level you can feel the stimulation creating a muscle contraction.
It is normal to feel tingling or varying sensations in the muscles you are treating.
k After a few days of familiarisation, use a higher intensity that provides you with strong but comfortable muscle contractions.
You can set the intensity between 1-99.
Please note that the intensity required may vary from day to day
If you feel pain or discomfort:
• Lower the intensity of the Body Pads using the (–) Intensity Control on the device or remote control.
• You can also choose to stop therapy before the end of the 30 minute session to avoid skin irritation. You can do this by pressing the power button on the device or on the remote control.
l The Time display will start to count down in minutes as Revitive cycles through its program.
m When Revitive times out, the Time display reads 00 and you will hear three beeps, and the device will
switch itself off automatically.
n Ensuring that the device has switched itself off, then gently peel the Body Pads from the skin.
Do not pull the Body Pads off the skin using the Electrode cords as this may damage the cords.

p Unplug the Electrode cord from the socket on the device.
You do not need to detach the Body Pads from the Electrode cord
a Ensure Revitive is switched off.
b Wipe down the foot-pads with a soft damp cloth.
