Introduction to REVITIVE
INDICATIONS FOR USE
REVITIVE is intended:
• To temporarily increase local blood circulation in healthy
leg muscles
• For temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching
muscles in the shoulder, waist, back, upper extremities
(arms) and lower extremities (legs) due to strain from exercise
or normal household duties
• To stimulate healthy muscles in order to improve and facilitate
muscle performance
HOW REVITIVE WORKS
REVITIVE delivers electrical stimulation to your feet via a pair of cushioned
foot pads, while you are seated. The electrical stimulation causes muscles
in your calf and foot to contract, which helps to increase circulation in your
lower legs.
REVITIVE has been developed so that it is comfortable for you to use.
It features an IsoRocker (patent pending) that allows for natural ankle
movement when applying the electrical stimulation to your feet. Ankle
movement is a key factor in increasing circulation in the lower legs. You can
choose to enable or disable the IsoRocker anytime.
REVITIVE is designed to be easy to use and also comes with a remote
control, which means you do not have to reach down to adjust settings
during use.
REVITIVE can also deliver electrical stimulation to the knees, shoulders,
back or arms. Delivering electrical stimulation to your body at the same
time as your feet is possible with REVITIVE.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Warnings continued
•Do not use the body pads on your head, face, neck or chest.
There is a chance that serious health problems, and in rare cases death,
may be caused by using the body pads on your head, face, neck or chest.
• There is a chance that using the body pads on your head, face or
neck may cause closure of the airway, difficulty in breathing, or
adverse effects on heart rhythm or blood pressure.
• The introduction of electrical current into the chest may cause
rhythm disturbances to your heart, which could be lethal
• Use body pads only on parts of your body as directed in this guide
•Do not apply body pads directly:
• on open wounds or rashes, swollen, red, infected, or inflamed areas
or skin eruptions (such as phlebitis, thrombophlebitis, varicose veins)
• on or close to, cancerous lesions/tumors
• on areas treated with radiotherapy (within the past 6 months)
• on reproductive organs
When Not to Use REVITIVE
There are times you should not use REVITIVE. Do not use REVITIVE:
•with electronic monitoring equipment (such as cardiac monitors, ECG
alarms), which may not operate properly when the electrical

Cautions
•Be careful when applying stimulation:
• over areas of skin that lack normal sensation - be careful not to
overstimulate the area.
• over the abdomen during menstruation.
• after recent surgical procedures as stimulation may disrupt your
healing process.
• if you are likely to bleed internally, such as following an injury or
fracture – use a low intensity and/or shorter time to avoid over-
stimulation.
• after a long period of immobility or inactivity – use a low intensity
and shorter time to avoid over-stimulation or muscle fatigue.
•It is possible REVITIVE may reduce the sensation of pain that
would normally act as a warning of an underlying problem.
•If your pain does not improve, gets worse or continues for more than 5 days,
stop using the device and talk to your doctor.
•The long-term effects of electrical stimulation are unknown.
•Keep this device out of the reach of children.
•Use the REVITIVE only with the body pads, cords, and accessories
recommended by the manufacturer.
• Check body pads, cords and cables periodically for damage.
• Ensure connectors are pressed together until no gap is between them.
Leaving a gap may cause discomfort.

•Do not open the REVITIVE or repair it yourself. This will invalidate
your warranty and may cause serious harm.
•In the unlikely event your REVITIVE malfunctions, disconnect it from the
power source and contact your nearest authorized agent.
•The REVITIVE has passed the required tests for EMI, it may still be affected
by excessive emissions and/or may interfere with more sensitive equipment.
•It has been reported that some universal remote control devices can change
the settings on REVITIVE if used during a REVITIVE treatment. If this should
occur, simply adjust the time or intensity settings on Revitive using the
REVITIVE Control Panel/Remote Control.
Adverse reactions
•Do not use body pads after their expiration date. There is a chance you
may experience skin irritation or burns under the body pads.
•There is a chance you may experience skin irritation or
hypersensitivity due to the electrical stimulation.
•If you experience adverse reactions, stop using REVITIVE and talk
with your doctor.
