2. Turn the ICEFORM sleeve inside out, half way, with TPE of distal end
half-exposed. Stretch the sleeve over the brim of the socket and roll
distal end completely down (Figure 2).
3. Roll down upper part of the sleeve until socket brim is completely
exposed. Step into the socket and make sure the residual limb is
positioned correctly in the socket. Roll the sleeve up with both hands.
Do not pull on the edges as this may place strain on the skin
(Figure 3).
4. Wash the ICEFORM sleeve daily, especially on the inside. To do so,
remove the liner, turn the liner inside out and wash it with pH
balanced, 100% fragrance- and dye-free soap. Be sure to rinse with
plenty of water, and wipe dry with a towel. The sleeve can also be
rolled down onto the socket and washed (Figure 4).
5. Sealant loops on the inside of the sleeve should be located on
different places on the thigh every other day to prevent skin irritation
at the location of the sealant loops.
All ICEFORM sleeves are minimum 35cm long (14").
Note: Excessive heat may damage the sleeve. Take care not to scrub the
surface of the sleeve, since that can roughen the surface which can cause
skin irritation.
Note: It is not recommended to use soap/creams/lotion that contain
animal fats or oil or hydrocarbon oils.
WARRANTY: ICEFORM Sleeve comes with a 3 months warranty against
defects in material and workmanship.
