If you have trouble connecting the velcro on
the recovery pants:
- Use one hand to pull up on the center seam
at the bottom of the groin and the other to
continue connecting velcro down
.
- Put all of your weight on the leg you are
trying to connect down. Keep it as straight as
possible.
- Have someone else help you connect the velcro
if these tips don’t work.
• If the Recovery Pants feel as though they are
not flowing properly:
- Ensure that the connectors of the pants and
the hoses of the Control Unit are fully
connected and “snapped”.
- Undo the velcro connection on the pants with
the system still connected and running. Then
stretch and shake out any wrinkles in the pad.
- Run your hands along the inner groin region
and pull the overlap flap until it is flat against
the inner leg.
- Then reconnect the velcro down again, being
sure to stretch as much as the pad will allow.
-
If a large wrinkle persists:
Undo the velcro near
the wrinkle and undo 4 or 5 snaps by the edge
of the pants to let the pad hang free. Then use
this slack to pull out the wrinkle, wrap the pad
around your leg, and wrap the pad around your
leg and reconnect the velcro with the plastic
pads unattached.

during treatment to maintain target temperture.
