Keep the instruction manual throughout the service life of the product.

If irregularities should occur during treatment, stop using the device 
immediately.

If gel should leak from a compress and come into contact with your skin,
rinse the spot very thoroughly under running water.

Do not store the cold/hot compresses permanently in the refrigerator. 
Do not place the cold/hot compresses for more than 4 hours in the 
refrigerator.

Please note: not all types of inflammation can be treated with a cold therapy. If in 
doubt, ask your physician.

Never use the enclosed cold/hot compresses for treatment without having the 
knee ache cuff attached between the application site and the cold/hot compress if 
you have previously heated or chilled the compress. This may lead to chilblains or 
burns. Test the temperature on the back of your hand prior to use.

Do not place any heavy or sharp-edged objects onto the knee ache cuff
or the cold/hot compresses.

Prevent abuse and other use of the device that does not correspond to its 
intended purpose.  You may not use any other accessories of other devices.

when passing the knee ache cuff on. Also let third parties access these 
instructions. The instruction manual is part of the knee ache cuff.

Do not use the knee ache cuff on points of your body with inexplicable pain, 
swollen muscles or after grave muscle injuries without consulting your physician. 
Treatment with the knee ache cuff does not replace medical diagnoses and 
treatment.

If you have any doubts regarding the application of the knee ache cuff, consult 
your physician before using it.

Do not use the knee ache cuff while driving a car and also do not perform any 
other activities during application.

Prior to use, remove all metal objects like jewellery, belts, watches and other 
utensils from your body so that these do not come into contact with the  
knee ache cuff.

during the application of the knee ache cuff, stop it immediately and consult your 
physician.
