11.6. TREATMENT DELIVERY Treatment will be delivered for the duration set by the user. The treatment timer LEDs will count down in hour increments as treatment progresses. Upon completion, the device will automatically shut off and the ‘treatment complete’ LED will illuminate for approximately 8 hours before turning off.
12. Device Power Down and Removal 12.1. POWER OFF THE POWER CONTROLLER Press and hold the Power Button on the Power Controller for at least 1 second to turn the device ‘OFF’ (See Figure 11A for device diagram). 12.2. REMOVE DEVICE FROM SKIN A.
Always turn the device ‘OFF’ when not in use or if pain or uncomfortable heating is indicated by the patient. 13.3. SAM SENSING MODE In the event that the treatment site underneath the applicator reaches the temperature threshold, the applicator will pause ultrasound output and vibrate once with a red LED notification to signify that the device has begun a cooling or rest cycle.
14. Cleaning and Maintenance The exterior of the Power Controller and the applicator surfaces may be cleaned with a soft cloth, tissue, or towel and one of the following cleaning agents: mild detergent and water or disinfecting medical wipes. Caution: Properly clean the applicator between treatments. Caution: The device is not waterproof.
