FLOWELL HOME PANTS SETUP
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Lay Out the Pants and Prepare the Hoses
Unroll the compression pants on a flat surface and unstrap the Velcro to fully open them. Position the hose connectors for easy access.
2. Connect the Hoses to the Pants
Insert the hose connectors into the designated ports on the pants. Make sure each connection is secure for even pressure distribution.
3. Put On the Compression Pants
Step into the pants one leg at a time, then gently pull them up into place. Fasten the Velcro snugly around your legs, hips, and waist for a secure but comfortable fit.
4. Connect to the Control Unit
Plug the other ends of the hoses into the Flowell control unit. The unit itself requires access to a power outlet.
5. Put On the Compression Pants
Step into the pants one leg at a time, then gently pull them up into place. Fasten the Velcro snugly around your legs, hips, and waist for a secure but comfortable fit.
6. Power On the Device
Switch on the Flowell control unit. The interface will light up, allowing you to choose a program.
7. Choose a Compression Program
Select your preferred therapy mode—whether for lymphatic drainage, recovery, or daily circulation support. Adjust pressure and session time to your needs.
8. Begin the Session
Tap "Start" to begin. The pants will start inflating sequentially, applying gentle pressure across the chambers.
9. Relax During the Therapy
Sit back comfortably. The program will automatically progress through the cycle. A full session typically lasts 15–30 minutes.
10. End the Session and Remove the Pants
After the device finishes, it will deflate automatically. Disconnect the hoses, unfasten the Velcro, and remove the pants. Store the unit and pants in a clean, dry space.
Adding an Extension Strap
1. Unpack the Extension Strap
Lay the extension strap flat. Make sure the zipper and Velcro sections are fully open and accessible.
2. Locate the Zipper Section on the Pants
Place the pants flat with the zipper side facing up. Identify the zipper track along the side edge where the extension strap will be inserted.
3. Align the Extension Strap with the Zipper
Match the zipper on the extension strap with the zipper on the pants. Ensure that the Velcro section of the extension strap is also aligned for closure after installation.
4. Attach the Zipper
Carefully zip the extension strap to the pants, starting from one end and working your way to the other. Make sure the zip is fully closed and secured.
5. Fasten the Velcro Panels
Once zipped in, press down the Velcro sections to seal the extension strap securely. Smooth down any loose areas to ensure comfort during inflation.
6. Double Check All Connections
Inspect the connection to confirm the extension strap is flat, properly aligned, and firmly attached. This ensures airtight chamber inflation during use.
7. Proceed with Regular Use
With the extension strap installed, you can now put on the compression pants as normal and proceed with your therapy session. The strap provides extra room and flexibility without affecting performance.
