General Usage Guidelines - PowerDot Uno Instruction Manual

For manual deactivation: when PowerDot
PD-01M is OFF, press and hold Multi-
function button 3 seconds until you see
the power indicator turning on first and
then blinking. Now you can activate your
PowerDot from the PowerDot Mobile
Application.
Deactivation from the Mobile Application
via My Devices screen: When your active
PowerDot device is on, deactivate it
by tapping on the active device. Upon
successful deactivation, the power
indicator will blink several times.
Forgot to deactivate
your device from within
the PowerDot Mobile
Application? Do it
manually by turning off
your PowerDot PD-01M
device and then holding he
Multi-function Button for
3 seconds (device will turn
on and the LED will blink)!
GENERAL
USAGE
GUIDELINES
PAD PLACEMENT
ALWAYS follow the pad
placement guidelines
found in the PowerDot
Mobile Application. The
manufacturer disclaims
all responsibility for
injuries, damages and
other consequences
arising from stimulations
where pads placement
recommendations were
ignored.
Where necessary, look for the best
possible position by pausing
stimulation, slowly moving the round pad
over the targeted muscle, and resuming
stimulation until you find the position
that produces the perfect combination
of the strongest contractions and the
greatest comfort.
18
STIMULATION POSITIONS
The optimal stimulation position will vary
depending on the actual placement of
the pads, targeted muscle group, and
your stimulation program selection.
For Main Programs, which generally
induce powerful muscular contractions,
muscles should always be stimulated in
an isometric fashion (for your reference,
illustrations will be provided in the
Mobile Application.)
ALWAYS follow PowerDot
Mobile Application
recommendations on the
best stimulation position.
The manufacturer is
not responsible for any
damage or injury suffered
by users who engaged
in physical activities or
assumed stimulation
positions other than the
ones recommended in
the
the Mobile Application's
stimulation guidelines.
You should therefore try to arrange your
limbs in such a way that you achieve
maximum resistance to the movement
and prevent any shortening of the muscle
during the contraction.
ADJUSTING STIMULATION
INTENSITIES
In a stimulated muscle, the number of the
recruited fibers depends on the intensity
of the stimulation. For Main Programs that
simulate powerful muscle contractions: to
recruit the maximum number of fibers,
stimulate up to intensity levels that you
can comfortably endure.
For programs meant to induce muscle
twitches: you should progressively
increase the stimulation intensities until
you see the targeted muscles actually
twitching.
The PowerDot Mobile Application will
always give you the best advice on which
intensity levels to use, depending on your
selected stimulation program and the
current stimulation phase.
Keep in mind that the maximum intensity
levels may vary, not only from one
stimulation session to another, but also
within the course of a single stimulation
session. It's possible your muscles will
adapt to stimulation at a certain intensity
level reasonably quickly.
