Össur COLD RUSH COMPACT Instrucciones De Uso página 6

WARNING: NO DIRECT CONTACT WITH SKIN; INSULATION
BARRIER REQUIRED
The Cold Rush Pad should never make direct contact with the skin. The
Cold Rush pad operating temperature is too cold to be placed directly on
the skin. An insulation barrier between the pad and the skin should be
used at all times without exception so as to prevent the skin from
becoming too cold. Failure to use an insulation barrier between the pad
and the skin can lead to a cold-related injury.
WARNING: USE ONLY ÖSSUR COLD RUSH PADS
Competitive brand cold therapy pads should not be used with the Cold
Rush Compact Cold Therapy Device as the temperature may become too
cold when using competitive pad and the pads may not otherwise
function properly, causing injury. Only Össur Cold Rush Pads should be
used with the Cold Rush Compact Cold Therapy Device.
WARNING: NO MOISTURE IN INSULATION BARRIER
If the moisture is present in the insulation barrier, the skin may become
colder than intended. The insulation barrier should be inspected regularly
to check for moisture caused by bleeding, sweating or condensation. If
moisture is found on the insulation barrier between the pad and the skin,
immediately discontinue use of the Cold Rush until the moisture is
removed and a fresh barrier is placed between the pad and the skin.
