NOTE: Grey represents green indicators and black represents yellow indicators.
The therapy life indicators provide a visual display of the seven day therapy life cycle and the therapy
life remaining. When therapy begins all seven green LEDs are illuminated. During therapy, after each
24-hour period an indicator will turn off. When eight hours of therapy time remains, the last indicator
will illuminate with both a green and yellow LED simultaneously. When therapy time is about to
expire, the last indicator will illuminate with a yellow LED and an alert will sound for approximately
two minutes, then the therapy unit will shut off.
At the end of therapy, the therapy unit must be replaced with a new unit or alternative therapy must
be used. Patients should be instructed to contact the treating physician or caregiver if therapy unit

even if the unit is turned off.
