• Observe caution when using electro-
therapy at the same time as the patient
is connected to monitoring equipment
with body worn electrodes. The stimu-
lation might interfere with the signals
to the monitoring equipment.
Precautions when using the elec-
trodes and the motor point pen:
• Only use electrodes and pen supplied
by CefarCompex. Other electrodes and
pens may have electrical properties
that are incompatible with the Mi
Theta 600/Theta 500 stimulator.
• Only place electrodes on healthy skin
and never on skin lesions of any kind
(wounds, swelling, burns, irritation,
eczema, etc.).
• Always turn off the stimulator or make
sure that the intensity for each chan-
nel is 0 before moving or removing the
electrodes.
• Do not place the electrodes or the pen
in water.
• Do not apply solvents of any kind to
the electrodes or pen.
• Do not use electrodes with a surface
< 18 cm , as there will be a risk of
2
suffering a burn injury. Caution should
always be exercised with current
densities > 2mA/cm

• For optimal results, wash, clean and
dry the skin before attaching the
electrodes.
• Attach the electrodes so the entire
surface is in contact with the skin.
• For hygiene reasons, each patient
must have his own set of electrodes.
Never use the same electrodes on dif-
ferent patients.
• Some people with very sensitive
skin may experience redness under
the electrodes after a session. This
redness is generally harmless and
normally disappears within 10 to 20
minutes. Do not start another stimula-
tion session in the same area, as long
as the redness is still visible.
• When the electrodes loose their adhe-
siveness and do not stick properly to
the skin, the stimulation can feel un-
pleasant. Be sure that the electrodes
are in good condition, otherwise they
have to be replaced.
• Clean and disinfect the tip of the
motor point pen that comes in contact
with the skin before each use.
