1. Introduction

Form is an innovative electrical muscle stimulator used to target muscles for local and whole-

body muscle recovery. The stimulator delivers small electrical impulses via smart, body-worn

electrodes, designed to optimise muscle coverage, motor point activation and elicit small

muscle contractions. This type of ‘active recovery’ helps the muscle recovery process without

causing cardiovascular fatigue. Enhance your recovery routine and return to activity faster

with Form.

3. Safety Guidelines

Contraindications

• Do not use if you have a heart

pacemaker, (or if you have a heart

rhythm problem) or with any

electronic medical devices. Using this

unit with electronic medical devices

may cause erroneous operation of

the device. Electrical stimulation in the

direct vicinity of an implanted device

may affect some models.

• Donotuseduringtherstthree

months of pregnancy. It is not known

whether EMS may affect foetal

development.

• Do not use on the abdomen in the

later stages of pregnancy. Stop

using immediately if you experience

unexpected contractions.

Warnings

• Do not use when driving, operating

machinery, or similar actions needing

muscular control. Loose electrode

pads or sudden changes in contact

may cause brief involuntary muscle

movements.

• Do not use or consult with your

clinician before use if you have, in

the area being treated: active or

suspected cancer or undiagnosed

pain with a history of cancer.

Stimulation directly through a

conrmedorsuspectedmalignancy

should be avoided as it may stimulate

growth and promote spread of

cancer cells.

• Do not use simultaneously with

high frequency hospital diagnostic/

therapeutic equipment. Doing so

may result in burns at the site of the

electrodes and possible damage to

device.

• Do not use in close proximity (e.g.,

1 m) to a shortwave or microwave,

TV’Sandhi-speakers,asthismay

produce instability in the stimulator

output may affect the correct

operation of this unit. If it appears to

behave unusually, move it away from

these devices.

• Do not apply near the thorax because

the introduction of electrical current

may increase the risk of cardiac

brillation.

• Stimulation should not be applied

across or through the head, directly

on the eyes, covering the mouth or on

the front of the neck (especially the

carotid sinus).

• Stop using the device and consult

a health care professional if you

experience any adverse reactions

from the device.

Cautions

• Caution should be used if you have a

bleeding disorder as stimulation may

increasebloodowtothestimulated

region.

• Caution should be used if you have

suspected or diagnosed epilepsy

as electrical stimulation may affect

seizure threshold.

• Caution should be used following

recent surgical procedures.

Stimulation may disrupt the healing

process.

• Do not permit use by children unable

to understand the instructions or

persons with cognitive disabilities, i.e.,

Alzheimer’s disease or dementia.

• Caution should be observed when

using Form at high strength settings.

Prolonged use at high settings

may cause muscle injury or tissue

inammation.Formcandeliver

outputs in excess of 10 mA (RMS) or 10

V averaged over any period of 1 sec.

This is indicated by the yellow LED light

on bottom of the stimulator.

• Maintenance and all repairs should

only be carried out by an authorized

agency. The manufacturer will not

be held responsible for the results

of maintenance or repairs by

unauthorized persons.

• Do not immerse your device in water

or place it close to excessive heat or

humidity as this may cause it to cease

to operate correctly.

• Temperature & Relative Humidity of

storage: -25°C to +70°C, up to 93% R.H.

Temperature & Relative Humidity of

transportation: -25°C to +70°C, up to

93% R.H.

• There are no serviceable user

parts. Do not attempt to open or

modify the unit. This may affect the

safe operation of the unit and will

invalidate the warranty.

Note: There are no known side effects

and long-term use is not considered

harmful. However, the device works your

muscles and unaccustomed amounts of

exercise may produce muscle ache. If this

happens, simply reduce the strength of the

machine or allow your muscles time to rest

until the aching disappears.

4. Using Form Controls and Interface

Power

To turn the stimulator on, press and hold the

control button for 1 second.

To turn the stimulator off, press and hold the

control button for 3 seconds.

Increase / Decrease

The stimulation intensity can be increased

or decreased by rotating the stimulator dial.

Rotate clockwise to increase the intensity

and anti-clockwise to decrease the

intensity. The selected intensity is displayed

on the circular display.

Treatment Time

Once the chosen intensity has been

selected, the remaining treatment time will

Circular Display

Stimulator

be indicated on the display after 5 seconds.

Note each session is 20 minutes long. The

stimulator will automatically switch off at

the end of the session.

Lock / Unlock

To prevent accidental changes of intensity,

the stimulator can be locked. Double press

the control button to lock and unlock the

stimulator. This will be indicated on the

displaybytwoashes.

Check Battery Level

Triple press the control button to display the

battery level. Battery level will be shown for

5 seconds before returning to the session

treatment time.

Preparing For a Session

For best results, a Form muscle recovery

session should be completed within two

hoursofnishingphysicalexercise.

Select the correct smart electrode for the

targeted muscle (see electrode placement

guide).

Wipe clean and dry the targeted area of

the body.

Remove the hydrogels from their foil bag.

1. Remove the black liner labelled 1 from one

of the hydrogels.

2. Apply to the rear of the electrodes.

3. Remove the clear liner labelled 2 from

the electrodes. Be careful to ensure the

hydrogels remain stuck to the electrode.

Note: It is important the liners are

removed in this order. Ensure to keep

one of the liners to re-apply onto the gel

once your session is complete.

4. Place the electrode on the selected

muscle (see electrode placement guide).

Connect the stimulator to the electrode pad

viathemagneticxingpoint.

Thereare45levelsofintensity.Onrstuse,

we recommend increasing the intensity

slowly. The aim is to produce small, visible

muscle contractions.

Note: The intensity cannot be

increased until it is connected to the

electrode.

3) Once the intensity has been selected,

after 5 seconds the display will indicate the

20 minute remaining session time.

4) It may be necessary to increase the

intensity during a session as your body

becomes accustomed to the stimulation.

Note: If there is a connection error

during the session, the display will

ash5times,thesessionwillpause,andthe

intensity will revert to zero. This could be due

to either:

• The stimulator has been disconnected

from the electrode

• The electrode is not making a good

connection with the body

Ensure the stimulator and electrode are

connected and applied correctly to the

body. Once reconnected the stimulator will

remember the remaining treatment time.

The intensity will need to be increased.

Note: The stimulator must be

connected to the electrode in the

correct orientation. If you feel magnetic

resistance, rotate the stimulator 180° and try

connecting again.

Warning: Ensure the stimulator is

switched off before connecting to, or

removing from the electrodes.

We recommend competing a Form

recovery session in a comfortable resting

position, ideally seated or lying down.

Completing A Session

1) Press the control button for one second to

switch the stimulator on.

The smart electrode will now automatically

conguretheprogrammeoutputsettings.

2) Increase the intensity by rotating the

stimulator dial in a clockwise direction.
