3. Product Components

Your REVIX Knee Ice Pack Wrap package includes:

• 1 x REVIX Knee Ice Pack Wrap (12" x 9.5")
• 1 x Storage Bag

4. Setup: Preparing for Cold Therapy

Before initial use, and between subsequent uses, the ice pack needs to be chilled.

1. Place in Freezer: Insert the REVIX Knee Ice Pack Wrap into the provided storage bag. This helps keep the pack clean and prevents it from absorbing freezer odors.
2. Chill Duration: Place the bagged ice pack in a freezer for a minimum of 4 hours before use. For optimal cold retention, it is recommended to freeze overnight.
3. Gel Flexibility: The innovative ice grid gel design ensures the pack remains pliable even when frozen to -13°F (-25°C), allowing it to conform to your body's contours.

5. Operating Instructions

Follow these steps for effective cold therapy:

1. Remove from Freezer: Take the chilled REVIX Knee Ice Pack Wrap out of the freezer and its storage bag.
2. Prepare Skin: Place a thin towel or cloth over the area where you intend to apply the ice pack. This is crucial for preventing frostbite, especially during the initial 20 minutes of application.
3. Position the Wrap: Place the ice pack wrap directly over the towel on the desired area (knee, thigh, elbow, calf). The flexible gel design allows it to conform to various body parts.
4. Secure with Straps: Use the two adjustable straps to secure the wrap firmly but comfortably in place. The hook-and-loop fasteners allow for a customized fit, ensuring consistent contact and hands-free relief.
5. Application Time: Apply the ice pack for a maximum of 45 minutes. The ice grid gel technology provides consistent and deep cooling for this duration.
6. Post-Application: After 45 minutes, remove the ice pack. Allow at least 4-6 hours before reapplying.

• Storage: Always store the ice pack in its provided storage bag when not in use or when chilling in the freezer. This protects the fabric and prevents contamination.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect the ice pack for any signs of damage, such as tears, punctures, or gel leakage. Discontinue use if any damage is found.
