6. Stick the minipad into the crotch of the underwear
close to where the urine will escape.
7. Put the
Urosensor
™
cord inside the night clothes
and extend it up to the alarm. Plug the
Urosensor
™
into the alarm.
8. When the alarm triggers make sure your child
gets out of bed promptly, unplugs the
Urosensor
™
from the alarm to disconnect it and goes to the
bathroom.
9. Remove the
Urosensor
™
from the minipad and wash it in liquid soap or
detergent and dry it well.
NOTE:
Do not use chlorine-based detergents or soaps as these will irreparably
damage the sensor.
10. Insert the
Urosensor
™
in a new, dry minipad.
11. Plug the
Urosensor
™
back into the alarm before getting back into bed.
12. Repeat steps 5-10 if the alarm triggers again.
NOTE:
During the day, and when not in use, unplug the
Urosensor
™
to save
battery life and put it in a safe place to prevent damage.
13. Keep using the
DRI Sleeper
®
excel
every night until there have been no wet
beds for 14 consecutive nights.
Other ways to position the Urosensor
™
Using a paper handkerchief or some tissue
1. Wrap the
Urosensor
™
in ½ a 2-3 ply paper handkerchief or tissue.
2. Put on a pair of close fitting underpants.
3. Insert the wrapped
Urosensor
™
inside the
underpants near where the urine will first escape.
Using double-gusset underpants
1. Cut a 25mm (1 inch) slit through one layer only of
a pair of double-gusset underpants, down towards
the crotch area. The cut can be made on the inside
or the outside of the underwear.
2. Insert the
Urosensor
™
inside the slit near where
the urine will first escape.
NOTE:
Wrapping the
Urosensor
™
in a paper handkerchief or tissue before
inserting it into the slit in the gusset can also help bedwetting to be detected more
quickly.
Using two pairs of underpants
1. Put on two pairs of close fitting underpants.
2. Insert the
Urosensor
™
™ in between both pairs of
underpants above the crotch area, near where the
urine will first escape.
NOTE:
Wrapping the
Urosensor
™
in a paper
handkerchief or tissue before inserting it between
the underpants can also help the bedwetting to be
detected more quickly.
Using a disposable diaper or pull-ups
1. With a sharp pair of scissors, cut a 25mm
(1 inch) slit in the absorbent layers on the inside
of the pull-up diaper near the area where the urine
will first escape.
2. With the point of the scissors, create a pocket for
the
Urosensor
™
to slide into.
3. Insert the
Urosensor
™
inside the pocket.
NOTE:
Make sure the
Urosensor
™
does not slide
down towards the back of the diaper or pull-ups away from the initial wetting
area.
NOTE:
As with the minipad, it is important the
Urosensor
™
is inserted under
some absorbent layers. However, disposable diapers tend to be highly absorbent
so wrapping the
Urosensor
™
in a paper handkerchief or tissue, and inserting it
between the body and the diaper can help the moisture reach the
Urosensor
™
before it is absorbed by the diaper. Diapers that include an absorbent gel layer
should be avoided as these will not result in sufficient moisture getting to the
Urosensor
™
to enable it to trigger.
