6. INITIAL USE
Before you use the EM 59 Heat for the first time, let it charge for a mini-
mum of 4 hours. Proceed as follows.
1. Connect the USB charging cable to a mains adapter (max. output 5V/2A)
and the EM59 Heat
2. Then insert the mains adapter into a suitable socket.
3. Alternatively, you can charge the device using your
computer/laptop. To do so, connect the device to a
USB port on your PC/laptop via the USB charging
cable. You cannot use the device while it is being
charged.
4. Turn the belt clip if required.
5. Guide the connection cable plugs into the socket on
the bottom of the device (Fig. 3).
6. Do not pull, twist or kink the cables (Fig. 4).
7. Now attach the supplied gel pads to the electrodes.
Remove one of the protective films carefully (Fig. 5).
Carefully attach the gel pad to the electrodes and care-
fully detach the protective film (Fig. 6). Ensure that the
edge of the gel pad does not protrude over the elec-
trode. Applying gel pads slightly askew will not affect the
function.
WARNING!
Remove the protective film slowly and carefully. Make
sure that the self-adhesive gel fpad is not damaged, as
damage or unevenness on the gel pad may cause skin
irritation.
