• The Compression Sleeve will now inflate. It may take up to five (5) minutes to
completely inflate the Compression Sleeve. Remain seated during inflation. To
ensure a better fit, pull up and support the Compression Sleeve in place while
the chambers inflate.
• The control unit is programmed to inflate the chambers of the Compression
Sleeve to preset pressures. When the correct pressures are reached, the control
unit will stop pumping.
• When the Compression Sleeve is fully inflated, the patient may stand up and
resume normal activities. (See Chapter 3 Warnings and Cautions.)
• The MUTE button may be used in Sustained Compression Mode once the
Compression Sleeve is fully inflated. (See Section 5.6 Muted Operation in
Sustained Compression Mode for details.)
5 .6 Muted Operation in Sustained Compression Mode
• To activate muted or paused operation during Sustained Compression Mode,
press the MUTE button and hold for at least two (2) seconds. Upon release of
the MUTE button, the control unit will make a subtle beep sound.
IMPORTANT: While muted, the device will remain inflated to apply pressure to the
leg but will no longer adjust the pressure .
• To deactivate muted operation, press the MUTE button again (for at least two
[2] seconds). Upon release of the MUTE button, the control unit will make a
subtle beep sound. The pump will now restart and, if necessary, readjust all
chambers back to the correct pressures.
• If muted operation is not manually deactivated, then the device will
automatically switch back to Sustained Compression Mode operation after
two (2) hours.
5 .7 Intermittent Pneumatic Compression Mode
In Intermittent Pneumatic Compression Mode, the device will operate a cyclic
pulsed inflation/deflation sequence until either it is unplugged from the Power
Adapter/Charger, or two (2) hours have elapsed, at which point the device will
switch back to Sustained Compression Mode operation.
