Maintenance and Troubleshooting

1. In order to maintain the device’s desired performance, the self-adhesive electrode

pads should be kept out of the dust and keep clean. DO NOT rub the electrode

pads with your hands, facial tissue, or wool ,etc.

2. The electrode pads tend to lose their adhesion over time, therefore weakening the

intensity level. Moisten nger with a few drops of water and rub it gently against

the electrode pads to improve conductivity.

3. If moistening the electrode pads does not improve signal, replace the old pads

with a pair of new ones. Refer to page 4, section 2: Sticking on the Electrode

Pads. We recommend that you replace the electrode pads after 30 days of usage

(varies among individuals).

4. If the LED indicator does not light during the testing procedure, please check the

following:

•Is the battery installed correctly? (“+” sign faces upward?)

•Is the battery’s energy low? If so, please replace with a new one.

5. If the points mentioned above are checked, and the device still does not work cor-

rectly,

please contact Health Vision by email- [email protected] or 1300 855

733 for further advise.

Caution

1. The intensity level volume should be adjusted to ZERO before

use.

2. DO NOT wear the device if the self-adhesive electrode pads are

not stuck to it.

Also, when you are pressing the test button, DO NOT touch the

conductive rubber or electrode pads with your ngers.

3. DO NOT wash your hands when you are wearing the device. It is

not waterproof.

4. DO NOT use with other medical or electronic device AT THE SAME

TIME.

5. DO NOT use with other medical electronic devices AT THE SAME

TIME.

6. The device should be kept out of the reach of children.

7. Batteries must not be disposed in household waste. Return them

to public collection points or shops selling batteries of the same

kind.

4. Do not use this device during pregnancy except unless otherwise advised by a doc-

tor.

5. Patients with acute or infectious diseases may use this device only with a medical

doctor’s advice.

6. Patients with severe skin diseases or sensitive skin, or those in a state of bleeding

SHOULD NOT us this device.

7. Do not use this device on swollen, infected, or inamed areas, or on skin erup-

tions, e.g. phlebitis, thrombophlebitis, varicose veins, etc.

8. Operation in close proximity (e.g. 1 meter) to a short wave or microwave therapy

equipment may produce instability in the device output.

WARNING !

Remarks : Under normal conditions, your home’s indoor background noise will be 30~50 dB.

2. What is dB ? How do I know whether Snore•Stopper can be used in my home?

A : A dB (decibel) is a unit of measurement of sound intensity. In normal homes the

Sound Intensity is in the range of 30 to 50 db. Intensity above 70 db is considered

to be very loud and unsafe for human being. The design of Snore Stopper detect

the intensity above 55 db noise. You may read the following table to see the opti-

mal sleeping conditions for use. Table as it is.

User’s FAQ

1. Q : Why you snores and-Does Snore•Stopper really work ?

A: Snoring is caused when the airway is too narrow. When we sleep, our muscles

are relaxed. As air moves through the narrow airway during breathing, it causes

the soft tissues (tonsils, soft palate & uvula) of the throat to vibrate. This vibra-

tion creates the sound and we call it snoring. Generally, snoring can be reduced

if the snorer changes his/her sleeping position or is given a slight nudge by his/her

bedmate.

Exactly the same way, when snores are detected, by the Snore Stopper, it will

generate a 5 second pulse onto supercial skin. This make the snoring person to

change his/her sleeping position and/ or ii.) increases the muscle tension in the

throat back to the normal thus increasing the gap for the airway resulting to stop

the snoring.

Note

: If you have a serious medical condition, refer to our introduction and warn-

ing sections. Use only as directed. If any unusual symptoms appear, discontinue

treatment and see your doctor. Proper use of Snore Stopper requires self-disci-

pline, careful application, and time to train reexes.

3. Why does the intensity feel so weak during the testing procedures?

A: Snore Stopper is designed to use at night, If you test during the day you may

not feel the sensitivity to your skin because of the general day time noise. It also

depends on the gender, age, weight and hairs on the wrist.

It may also happen that conductive electrodes might not be in proper position

and or not adhered properly to the Snore Stopper. Battery might be exhausted,

change it.

You may wear the Snore•Stopper to the inner side of the wrist.

4. When I ‘stimulate’ the snores in a silent background, Why device do not work?

A: To stimulate the device there should be at least 3 consecutive snores having

the snore sound frequency over 55db.

5. Why do I feel one long stimulation? Is something wrong with the device?

A: This is a special built-in device. As long as your snore frequency is continuously

more than 55 db the device will keep emitting electrical impulse till you change

your sleeping position. Thus you will feel long stimulation.

6. Are the two sides of the electrode pad different? Does it matter if there is no

proper contact?

A: Yes, the two sides are different., The side of the electrode pad that is to be

attached to the device has stronger adhesion (the side with printed words on

the waxed protective lm).

Snore Stopper will not work, if the electrodes are not adhered properly
