* Self-Adhesive Hypoallergenic electrodes have a typical life span
(if looked after) of 4/6 weeks. We recommend cleaning the skin before
use. After use place the electrodes back onto the plastic film then
enclose them back into the ziptag plastic pouch and store in a cool
environment.

A Few Good Tips [Self- Adhesive Electrodes]
* If you find the electrodes will not stick due to oily skin, cleanse the
skin with soap and water, then rinse and dry the area around the
electrode site. If this does not work, try cleansing the skin with a swab
impregnated with alcohol.
* Clip away hairy skin using a scissors; don't use a razor to remove the
hairs!
The electrodes conductive material is water- based. If it becomes saturated
(e.g. from perspiration), it will lose its adhesive qualities. After use leave the
electrodes face up overnight to dry out. At some point the electrodes will
become dry. Moisten the adhesive surface with a few drops of water, and
apply onto the plastic film overnight. This procedure will give you a few more
days of electrode life.
