how does muscle stimulation technology work?

SLENDERTONE SYSTEM ABS
This technology has been used in hospitals and by physiotherapists for over
50 years. Here is a summary of how EMS technology works.
patented 3-pad design ensures that all of the abdominal muscles contract
and not only those directly under the pads.

Step 1
Signals are sent
between the pads

setting up your slendertone system-abs

Step 1 - Charge the battery. Insert your charger into a
socket and then connect it to your unit (Fig. a). It'll take
approximately 3 hours to fully charge the battery. Your
unit is fully charged when all three sections of the battery
icon are full. The battery icon will flash when the battery
is low and needs to be recharged.
: Please ensure you only use the
NOTE
Charger when charging your control unit. Do not leave
your unit connected to the charger when the battery is
fully charged.
Step 2 - Connect the unit to the belt. The unit and belt
must be connected for your
work. 'Click' the unit connector into the belt connector
as shown in Fig. b.
Step 3 - Place the pads on the belt. Turn the belt over so
that the 3 silver studs are facing upwards. Remove the
three adhesive pads from their pack. There is 1 large
square pad and 2 smaller oval pads. One side of each
pad has a grid pattern on it while the other side is plain
black.
(i) Remove the covers from the patterned side of the
large pad (Fig. c).
(ii) Place the patterned side of this pad over the middle
stud and between the white lines.
(iii) Now remove the covers from the patterned side of the two smaller pads
and place them either side of the large pad (Fig. d).
