pads.
2. Wash the pads when the adhesive surface becomes dirty and/
or the pads are difficult to attach.
• Wash the pad softly with your
fingertips under slow running
cold water for several seconds
(do not use a sponge/cloth/
sharp object like a nail
onadhesive side, do not use
detergents, chemicals or soap).

CLEANING AND STORAGE

for up to 150 uses. Do not wash the pads too long or too
frequently. If the adhesive surface becomes sticky or the pad
peels off, leave the pad in the refrigerator (do not freeze)
overnight. The adhesion may be estored.
4. Dry the pads and let the adhesive surface air-dry completely.
Do not wipe with a tissue paper or cloth.

consult your local OMRON representatives.
The life of the pads may vary by how often you wash the pads,
the skin condition, and how you store the pads.

pad's surface is not in contact with your skin.
