Fitting Instructions 

 

Putting on and taking off the HeadUp Collar will be easier with an 

assistant; please ask them to read the instructions for use in full first.

 

 

 

Applying the HeadUp Collar 

 

  Step 1 – Align the chin profile of the HeadUp Collar facing 

forwards as shown. Cup the user’s chin with the chin profile and 

apply a gentle rearwards pull to the HeadUp Collar. 

 

  Step 2 – Draw the two edges of the HeadUp Collar to overlap at 

the back of the neck. 

 

  Step 3 – Secure the HeadUp Collar at the back of the 

neck/head using the hook and loop fastener, working from the 

centre downwards. 

 

  Step 4 – Some fine adjustment may be required. Ensure that 

the HeadUp Collar is sufficiently snug to provide support, whilst 

remaining comfortable for the wearer. 

 

 Do not leave the wearer of the HeadUp Collar after application 

without ensuring correct fitment and user comfort.

 

 

 If while wearing the HeadUp Collar any of the following issues are 

experienced: Discomfort / skin irritation / light-headedness – the 

HeadUp Collar must be removed.
