Wearing your garment
WARNING
Do not put on
the garment if your affected leg has open wounds. The
system is only intended to contact intact skin. Ensure any wounds are
adequately covered with wound dressing prior to use.
Prepare the garment by loosening the self-fastening tabs,
except
the tabs around the foot and ankle. The self-
fastening tabs on the
foot and ankle
are only there for minor adjustments to achieve a
good fit, after initially putting the garment on.
Follow the below step-by-step instructions to fit your garment.
Lay garment out flat and place
your leg on top of it.
Place foot into the garment and
wrap it around your leg. Keep your
leg straight in the garment.
