Skin Care Guidelines
In the absence of proper skin care, extended use of electrical stimulation
may cause skin irritation or a skin reaction to the NESS L300 Plus System
electrodes or the L300 and/or Thigh FS Cuffs.
To promote healthy skin with long-term use of the NESS L300 Plus
System, it is important to follow a daily skin-care routine:
x Clean the skin where the electrodes touch with a wet washcloth. If any
oils or lotions are on the skin, then clean with soap and water. Rinse well.
x Always check the skin for redness or a rash when putting on and taking
off the L300 and Thigh FS Cuffs.
x Wet the cloth electrodes before use and after every three to four hours
of use.
