5 How to use the device
Features
Three operating modes
You can choose from three different operating modes. (Mode A, Mode B, Mode C).
Digital pressure sensor
A sensor that detects the pressure and allows you to accurately set its value.
Digital pressure measuring device
The user can easily check the applied pressure thanks to the digital display.
Digital timer
The user can adjust the device operating time easily and accurately.
Safety system
In case of a power outage, while using the device, the safety system will
automatically discharge the air from the leg/arm cuffs.
Warnings for first use
Setting the pressure
At first use, set the pressure to a value lower than 60mmHg for 10 minutes,
then gradually increase the pressure and the usage time based on the user’s
conditions.
Leg cuff
Put the leg cuff on, keeping your leg straight. If you straighten your leg
after putting on the leg cuff you might feel pain to your knee.
Waist pad (optional)
Wind the pad properly around your abdomen, waist or hips.
Arm cuff
Fix the arm cuff using the appropriate Velcro strap to prevent it from opening
during use. Please use one arm cuff at a time if there are no persons around
you that can intervene in case of need.
Air hose
Use the correct hose for the correct type of application. Use the single hose
if you want to use only one arm cuff or leg cuff. Use the double hose if you
want to use two-leg/arm cuffs.
Setting the pressure
Pressure range: 10~180mmHg (increases: 10mmHg). We recommend you to set the
pressure below 80mmHg. You can find out the applied pressure value by
multiplying the value on the display by 10. For example: when on the display
appears 11, the applied pressure is 11 x10 = 110mmHg.
If you consider that there is not enough pressure inside the unit, check for any air losses from the leg or arm cuff. In case of air loss due to a hole, the pressure sensor detects the outflow and after 15/20 seconds it automatically passes to the next chamber.
Setting the timer
Setting the operating mode
▶ mode A: the selected air chambers inflate and deflate independently in
sequence from foot to thigh.
▶ mode B: the selected air chambers inflate in sequence from foot to thigh
and then all deflate at the same time.
▶ mode C: mode B is repeated two times and mode A for one time, in
reversed sequence (from thigh to foot).
Self-Calibration
If you detect unusual conditions, press the keys MODE, SKIP and POWER at the
same time. You should perform a Self-calibration every six months to adjust
the pressure.
Connecting the hose to the air inlet
Insert the connector in the air inlet as shown in the figure. Completely
insert the connector to avoid any air losses.
7. Connecting the hoses to the leg/arm cuff
Insert the connectors in the leg cuff and in the arm cuff according to the
colours. The therapeutic effect will be altered if the connection is not made
properly.
Inflation sequence
-Leg cuff : foot > calf > knee > thigh
-Arm cuff: hand > elbow > forearm > shoulder
-Waist pad: hip > waist > abdomen > pelvis
Using the leg/arm cuff
Using the arm cuff or leg cuff individually
Put the leg cuff or arm cuff on and connect the single hose to the air
connector. Completely insert the connector to avoid any air losses.
Using two units at the same time
Put the leg cuffs or arm cuffs on and connect the double hose to the air
connector. Completely insert the connector to avoid any air losses. The use of
both arm cuffs at the same time requires medical advice as it may increase
blood pressure.
Using the waist pad (optional)
Put the waist pad on and connect the double hose to the air connector.
Completely insert the connector to avoid any air losses.
Leg cuff extension (optional)
If the leg cuff is too tight for the user, he/she can use the hinge extension
to increase the circumference of the leg cuff around the thigh. To use the
extension, open the leg cuff hinge completely and then insert the extension
using the hinges on the leg cuff and those on the extension.
