Safety information

The nerve stimulator should not be used on patients with implanted electrical devices (e. g. cardiac pacemakers) without prior consultation with an appropriate medical specialist. Possible interference with the implanted devices by the stimulation current could represent a danger to the patient.

The adhesive electrodes must not be applied in the area of injuries.

The Stimuplex® HNS 11 nerve stimulator must not be used in areas where there is an explosion hazard.

The Stimuplex® HNS 11 nerve stimulator must not be used close to microwave therapy equipment. The possible pick-up of radio frequency currents by the stimulation electrode could damage the nerves.

The patient current should not drop below a specific value (please refer to p. 21 points 8 and 9).

If the battery has leaked, the Stimuplex® HNS 11 must not continue to be operated for safety reasons. It must be returned to the manufacturer for correct cleaning. The same applies if any liquid soaks through!

In the event of warning tone sequences (tone groups of approx. 6 Hz), the Stimuplex® HNS 11 must be switched off and returned to the manufacturer or distributor for repair.

Error messages

When the Stimuplex® HNS 11 nerve stimulator is switched on, it automatically carries out a self-test. If this detects a faulty function, the fault is shown on the corresponding error code on the LCD display. The Stimuplex® HNS 11 is then no longer operational. It must be returned to the manufacturer for repair. You should state the error code in the repair order.

The following error codes are possible:

-F1: Analogue data acquisition is faulty

-F2: Error in the program

-F3: Reference error in the analogue data acquisition system
