The shape of the head can change due to
illness, growth or surgery - for a variety of
reasons.
Thanks to its innovative design, the Star-
light
® Flex can be adjusted in many places
and can thus be ideally adapted to the
user‘s individual requirements.
You can rightly expect us - Europe‘s largest
manufacturer of medical head protection
- to consistently dispense with potentially
dangerous metal parts, screws or the like
that could cause head injuries to the user in
the event of a fall, without compromising
wearing comfort, multi-adjustability or the
required protective effect!
The device must be prescribed by a medical
specialist, who has tested beforehand and
determined if the Starlight
®
Flex is suitable
for the individual therapeutic goal of the
patient. Furthermore, the medical special-
ist has determined the aid to be suitable
according to measurements, weight and
willingness of the patient to use the aid.
The aid is delivered via an authorised tech-
nician in compliance with the requirements
of the country where it is being used and in
strict accordance with the information and
instructions in this manual for adjustments
of the aid according to the measurements of
the user. Only compliance of the regulations
and instructions can lead to positive ergo-
nomically effects.
We wish you every success when using the
head protection Starlight
® Flex.
