4. Ensure that the patient is in good contact with the hand and foot
electrodes.
If the patient is not in correct contact with an electrode pair, the corre-
sponding electrode indicator on the touchscreen display will be red.
If the patient is in correct contact with an electrode pair, the correspond-
ing electrode indicator on the touchscreen display will be green.
NOTE
The selection of hand electrode influences the measurement result.
Note the pairs of hand electrodes selected by the patient. In this
way, you can ensure that the patient can use the same pairs of hand
electrodes for future measurements.
The electric current passed through the body during the measure-
ment is very low and does not present any health risk. However, in
isolated cases, very sensitive persons may feel a slight tingling sen-
sation.
As soon as all the electrode indicators on the touchscreen display are green,
a countdown to the start of measurement appears. Measurement starts
automatically.
