4. Maintenance
To clean your unit, use a soft duster
and an alcohol-based cleaning pro-
duct, which does not contain any sol-
vents. In fact, solvents could damage
the plastic parts, especially the panel
covering the screen of your Compex.
The user must not attempt any re-
pairs to the device or any of its acces-
sories. Never dismantle the Compex
or the charger containing high-vol-
tage parts because of risk of electric
discharge.
Compex Médical SA declines all
responsibility for damages and
consequences resulting from any
attempt to open, modify or repair the
device or any of its components by a
person or a service centre not
officially approved by Compex
Médical SA.
Compex stimulators do not require
calibration or verification of perfor-
mance parameters. The characteris-
tics are systematically verified and
validated for each device manufactu-
red. These characteristics are stable
and do not vary when used under
normal conditions.
If your device seems to not function
as expected, regardless of the situa-
tion, contact an official Compex ser-
vice centre for assistance.
Medical and health professionals
must refer to local legislation for in-
formation related to maintenance.
Normally, these laws require verifica-
tion of certain criteria at regular inter-
vals.
5. Storage conditions
The Compex contains rechargeable
batteries and so the storage condi-
tions must not exceed the following
figures:
TempérStorage temperature from -20°C to 45°
Max. relative humidity 75%
Atmospheric pressure from 700 hPa to
1060 hPa
6. Use conditions
Temperature of use from 0°C to 40°C
Max. relative humidity from 30% to 75%
Atmospheric pressure from 700 hPa
to1060 hPa
Do not use in an explosion risk area.
7. Elimination
For environmental protection and ac-
cording to the country's national re-
quirements, the device, the battery
and the accessories have to be elimi-
nated with special waste.
8. Standards
The Compex is based directly on me-
dical technology.
To guarantee your safety, the design,
manufacturing and distribution of
Compex are in conformity with the
requirements of the European Direc-
tive 93/42/CEE.
The device is in conformity with the
standard for general safety rules for
electromedical devices IEC 60601-1,
the standard for electromagnetic
compatibility IEC 60601-1-2 and the
standard for special safety rules for
nerve and muscle stimulators IEC
60601-2-10.
Current international standards (IEC
60601-2-10 AM1 2001) require that a
warning be given concerning the ap-
plication of electrodes to the thorax
