1 Introduction With your , you have acquired a high-quality and extremely versatile IONOSON-Jubilee combination unit for stimulation current and ultrasound therapy. The instrument will only show its true potential, however, if you are well informed about its functions. For this reason, carefully read the Operating Instructions and familiarise yourself with the use of the instrument.
Conditions following radiothorium treatments, X-ray therapy • Conditions following laminectomy • Skin lesions (infections, inflammatory processes, naevi) • Tumescences at all stages (pre-/postoperative) • Blood coagulation diseases. Warning Do not apply ultrasound or simultaneous therapy close to the brain, spinal cord and eyes! IONOSON-Jubilee...
Controls and Indicators 2 Controls and Indicators As its LCD is divided in different function fields, allows for clear and IONOSON-Jubilee easy operation. The plastic housing and the front panel protect the electronic components and simplify cleaning. Safety-related components are continuously monitored by the microprocessor, errone- ously initiated operating steps are suppressed, a self-test routine is performed after switching on and possible malfunctions are displayed.
You will then be able to select the parameters by turning the selector and confirm the selected value by pressing the selector again (cursor stops flashing). The modified values are displayed in the upper status bar <2> or at the respective position of the display <3>. IONOSON-Jubilee...
