Adjusting the stimulation intensity level
During the fitting process your clinician set the stimulation type and
intensity according to your exact needs, normally there is no need to
adjust the stimulation intensity however it may be necessary while
walking on different surfaces or with various footwear.
To lift the foot higher
:
If the foot slightly drags or catches on the floor while walking the
stimulation level should be increased by pressing the "+" button.
To decrease foot lift:
If you feel that your foot rises too high while walking or that the
stimulation is unpleasant, the intensity level can be reduced by pressing
the "-" button. After reducing the intensity take care that your foot doesn’t
drag or catch on the floor.
When the intensity level is altered the intensity level appears
on the display of the control unit and a corresponding beep is
emitted
When the system is turned on the intensity is automatically
set to “5” which is the intensity set by the clinician if the
intensity is reduced to “0” there will be no stimulation.
Note
Do not increase the stimulation intensity level set for you by your
clinician by more than two levels without first consulting him or her.
