Micro 5 is easy to use, and its adjustable radiator head allows it to be used in various treatment situations. What are the other benefits of Micro 5? Two selectable pulse frequencies mean that the heat pulses can be clearly felt. The pulse method allows higher intensities to be applied at a constant average power level, enabling heat to penetrate deeper.
Then replace the clip. Connecting the device to a power Micro 5 may only be operated on a secure power supply for medical premises in supply application group 1 in accordance with VDE 0107. Only use the power cable supplied.
Operation instructions Note: The following recommendations are only guidelines and must of course be adapted to the patient's individual situation. To switch on the device, place the mains connection switch (rear of the device) in position I. The device performs a self-test after it has been switched on. All display elements are controlled.
