INDICATIONS FOR USE

Your

SLENDERTONE REVIVE Professional Muscle Conditioner is intended

to stimulate healthy muscles in order to improve or facilitate muscle

performance. This SLENDERTONE REVIVE is not intended as a therapy for

any medical condition. Please read the contra-indications, precautions

and warnings carefully to determine whether any of them apply to you.

Your

SLENDERTONE REVIVE stimulates action potentials in the motor

nerves supplying muscle. Different patterns of muscle activity can be

imposed on the target muscle, depending on the timing and intensity

of the stimulation signal. The

SLENDERTONE REVIVE contains programs

for exercise warm-up, muscle performance improvement and exercise

recovery.

CONTRA-INDICATIONS, WARNINGS & PRECAUTIONS

This SLENDERTONE REVIVE is suitable for use by all healthy adults; however,

as with other forms of exercise, some care is needed when using it.

HOW TO USE YOUR SLENDERTONE REVIVE

Always stimulate muscles isometrically. When

stimulating the muscles of the arms or legs bear

in mind that the muscle contraction may cause

involuntary limb movement which could cause

injury to you or others. Always ensure the limb

is secured to prevent movement (Fig. a & b).

There are just three steps to setting-up a

treatment session.

1) Choose your required muscle workout program.

2) Connect the GelPads to the unit and place

them correctly on the body.

3) Start the program and set the intensity level.

1. CHOOSE YOUR MUSCLE WORK PROGRAM

Your SLENDERTONE REVIVE has two programs for muscle performance

improvement, as well as programs for exercise preparation and

post-exercise active recovery. Depending on your objective you may

select the appropriate program as follows:

Program Objective Intensity Range Duration

Prog. 1 Exercise Preparation 1 - 99 12 min.

Prog. 2 Active Recovery 1 1 - 99 30 min.

Prog. 3 Active Recovery 2 1 - 99 20 min.

Prog. 4 Active Recovery 3 1 - 99 20 min.

Prog. 5 Build Endurance 1 - 99 20 min.

Prog. 6 Build Strength 1 - 99 20 min.

For further details on the programs, see page 7.

2. PLACEMENT OF THE GELPADS

Connect the GelPads to the stimulator leads. The GelPad placement

chart illustrates the correct placement of the GelPads for a selection of

target muscles. The correct GelPad placements are available on pages

11-13 of this user manual. Insert the lead plugs into the stimulator

connectors.

3. SETTING THE EXERCISE INTENSITY

Increase the intensity and you will initially feel a tingle in the area of

the GelPads. As you increase further you will feel the muscles being

activated. As the intensity is increased more muscle fibers are stimulated

and you will feel a strong contraction and see visible muscle movement.

Do not exceed your comfort level. Your

SLENDERTONE REVIVE can deliver

effective contractions without undue discomfort.

SLENDERTONE REVIVE PROGRAMS

EXERCISE PROGRAMS:

The SLENDERTONE REVIVE has three programs for warming-up and exercising

your muscles.

Exercise Preparation - Program 1 (12 Min.)

This program gently warms up the muscles prior to exercise. It uses a

technique called “twitch potentiation” to prepare muscle fibers for

exercise. It feels like a rhythmic massage. Increase the intensity until

you get a strong but comfortable muscle movement.

Build Endurance - Program 5 (20 Min.)

This program uses a low frequency pulse train which favours slow

twitch fibers. It develops their aerobic capacity and capillary supply and

thereby improves fatigue resistance during long duration moderate

intensity exercise. The exercise comprises an alternating sequence of

work and rest phases lasting several seconds. Increase the intensity

until you get a strong and deep muscle contraction. Do not exceed

your comfort level.

Muscle Strengthening - Program 6 (20 Min.)

This program uses a pulse frequency appropriate to fast twitch muscle

fibers. It improves their anaerobic capacity and is used for improving

maximum muscle strength. The exercise comprises a sequence of

work phases separated by longer relaxation phases. Increase the

stimulation intensity until you get a strong and deep contraction. Do

not exceed your comfort level.

POST-EXERCISE RECOVERY:

Your SLENDERTONE REVIVE has three programs for active recovery following

exercise.

Active Recovery 1 - Program 2 (30 Min.)

This program produces muscle twitches at very low frequency and it

feels like a tapping massage. This stimulates blood flow and helps

speed up the removal of lactic acid as it accelerates the exchange

between the blood supply and the muscle fibers. As a result, the

muscles recover more quickly from fatigue, becoming more relaxed

with reduced stiffness. Use it after intense exercise to promote recov-

ery and relaxation.

Active Recovery 2 - Program 3 (20 Min.)

This 20-minute program is similar to Active Recovery 1 except that the

muscle twitch rate slows down during the session. It feels like a tap-

ping massage, but softer than Active Recovery 1.

Active Recovery 3 - Program 4 (20 Min.)

This form of stimulation activates the muscles in a rhythmic motion in

a short contraction/ relaxation cycle. It feels like a kneading massage

and is smoother than the other active recovery programs.

STEP BY STEP GUIDE

INSERTING THE BATTERY

The battery compartment is located on the back

of your unit. To open the battery compartment,

slide the cover off with your thumb in the direction

of the arrow ( ). Insert the new battery into the

compartment as shown by the direction indicator

printed on the bottom of the compartment (Fig. a).

The battery symbol ( ) will appear on the display at all times during

operation. As the battery power decreases, the 3 bars on the battery

symbol disappear one by one. The outline of the battery symbol will

flash to indicate when the battery needs to be replaced. Remove the

old battery by placing your thumb against the bottom of the battery

and lifting it out. You should only use high-quality, 9V alkaline batteries

to operate your

SLENDERTONE REVIVE controller.

RUNNING A SESSION

1. Insert the leads into the sockets on the base of

the controller (Fig. b). The leads are designed to be

held firmly in place once inserted. Attach the pins

from one lead to a single butterfly GelPad (Fig. c).

2. Remove the cover from the adhesive side of each

pair of GelPads (Fig. d) and position the GelPads

correctly (see pages 11-13). Keep the covers safe,

as you will need them at the end of the session.

3. If necessary, secure the limb(s) to be exercised

before using your

SLENDERTONE REVIVE (Fig. e ).

4. Switch on your SLENDERTONE REVIVE controller by

pressing the On/Off button for two seconds (Fig. f).

5. Press the Program button to select your chosen

training regime. You cannot change a program

during a session.

6. Increase the intensity to get the strongest possible,

yet still comfortable muscle contraction. Reduce the

intensity if it becomes uncomfortable. Press the lock

button to prevent accidental changes to the intensity.

PAUSING A SESSION

If you wish to pause a session at any point, briefly

press the On/ Off button and the stimulation will stop.

USING THE TRIGGER

If you wish to vary the pre-set contraction/

relaxation cycle, you can use the Trigger to

control the length of a contraction. Once a

contraction has reached its peak, press and

hold the Trigger button (Fig. a) to maintain

that contraction for as long as you wish. Once

you release the Trigger, the unit will enter the

relaxation cycle.

IMPORTANT:

You should never hold the Trigger for an excessive length of time and

should always ensure that you have sufficient relaxation periods. If

you hold the Trigger for too long without allowing your muscles to

relax sufficiently, the exercise can become gradually less effective,

as the muscles can fatigue quickly.

FINISHING YOUR SESSION

The session will stop automatically at the end of

each program’s pre-set treatment time. However,

to switch off your controller at any time during

a session, press and hold the on/off button for

two seconds (Fig. b). Remove the GelPads and

replace them on their protective covers. You

may now exercise another area of your body, or

you can simply store your product safely until

your next session.

NOTE:

You should only do one session per day on any

single body area.

GELPAD CONTACT INDICATOR ( )

SLENDERTONE REVIVE has a GelPad contact feature which continuously checks the connection between the leads and GelPads and between

the GelPads and your skin. When poor contact is detected:

• The intensity bar for the side(s) affected will flash.

• The GelPad contact symbol will begin flashing on the display.

• The controller will beep and the timer will pause.

• The intensity level will drop to zero and the up intensity keys will be disabled.

If this happens, you should check that the GelPads and leads are properly connected and that all GelPads are pressed fully against your

skin. If this doesn’t work, check that the leads are properly connected to the controller. When proper contact is restored, stimulation builds

over a 2 second period to the previously set intensity level.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Can EMS exercise cause muscle soreness?

As with all vigorous exercise, some muscle soreness can be expected.

Do not use programs 5 or 6 if you are experiencing muscle soreness

due to intense training. We recommend that you warm up, stretch and

cool down when using your

SLENDERTONE REVIVE as this reduces the

risk of muscle strains or tendonitis which can occur in the same way

as normal exercise. If the soreness is excessive, use the product at

low intensity for a few days.

My skin is red after a session. Why?

Some skin redness after a session is natural. It is partly due to an

increase in blood-flow and should fade after your workout. You

should not be concerned about this. However, if the redness is

excessive, it may mean that you have sensitive skin, which can react

to the GelPads. If the problem persists, you should stop using the

product.

The stimulation is uncomfortable. How can I improve this?

Ensure the GelPads are correctly positioned and pressed firmly

against clean skin. Always pause or switch off your controller before

repositioning the GelPads.

I can feel a tingling in the bone. What should I do?

Pause the program and reposition the GelPads away from any bone.

How do I know when to replace the GelPads?

If the signal is weakening, even though the battery is still OK, it usually

indicates that the GelPads are worn and need replacing. After a

number of sessions the GelPads can become less adhesive, resulting

in poor skin contact. If this occurs, you should replace the GelPads.

Replacement GelPads can be purchased from www.slendertone.com

or by calling Customer Care.

How often do I need to replace the GelPads?

You should replace the GelPads when they no longer adhere to

the skin or when the muscle contractions are noticeably weaker

compared to previous usage.

Caring for your controller

Your controller should not be allowed to get wet or be left in excessive

sunlight. It may be cleaned regularly using a soft cloth, lightly dampened

in soapy water. Do not allow the interior of your controller to become

wet. Do not use detergents, alcohol, spray aerosols or strong solvents

on your controller.

Access to the controller’s interior is not required for maintenance

purposes.

If your product is damaged, you should not use it but should return

it to

SLENDERTONE or your local distributor for replacement or repair.

Repairs, service and modifications may not be carried out by anyone

other than qualified service personnel authorized by

SLENDERTONE.

OTE: Using a leak-proof battery is advised. You should never leave

the battery inside your controller if you do not intend to use it for a long

period of time. If you do, the battery may leak and damage the product.

You should be aware that some batteries sold as ‘leak-proof’ can still

release corrosive substances, which may damage the product. You

should not use anything other than the correct type of battery (9v, 6F22)

with your controller. You must only insert the battery in the manner

specified in this manual.

Disposing of the GelPads and batteries

Used GelPads and batteries must never be disposed of in a fire but in

accordance with your national or state laws governing the disposal of

such items.

The battery compartment must be closed when the controller is on.

When the symbol appears on the display, the stimulus is significantly

reduced. The signal gradually increases to a peak intensity level at the

start of a contraction phase (i.e. ramp up) and gradually decreases to

nothing at start of a relaxation phase (i.e. ramp down).

Accessories

When ordering new GelPads, you should only use those carrying the

SLENDERTONE brand. Others may not be compatible with your product

and could degrade the minimum safety levels.

each channel.

each channel.

This symbol means ‘Attention, consult the accompanying
