When the prosthesis is not being worn,

The top half of the
Silicone-only

sleeve should be
sleeve
unrolled and allowed
to drape into socket
for protection.
It is also acceptable to
allow the sleeve to
extend out of the
socket.
Do not leave the top
half of the sleeve
rolled back onto the
socket edge.
The sleeve could be
damaged if the
prosthesis falls over.
CLEANING
Gently clean the sleeve with soap and
water. There is no need to remove the

DISINFECTING
If the silicone part of the One Sleeve
touches your skin, it will need to be
disinfected. Once a week, disinfect the area
of the silicone that touches the skin.
1. Place a small amount of ethyl or
isopropyl alcohol on a soft, clean cloth.
2. Lightly wipe the silicone with the cloth.
3. Rinse off the alcohol with water.
Note: Do not soak the sleeve in the
ethyl or isopropyl alcohol. Soaking the
sleeve in alcohol will stiffen the sleeve.
