How Does the Aircast Automatic Cryo/Cuff Compress?
Once you have plugged your unit in to the mains, you will hear the internal motor start up and power down every thirty seconds. Once attached correctly, your Cryo/Cuff will follow this cycle, providing intermittent compression every thirty or so seconds.
How to Get the Most Out of Your Aircast IC Cooler Unit
We have found that the quality of therapy provided by the IC Cooler increases when a large amount of ice is added to your cooler. To get the most out of your Cooler Unit, we recommend filling your IC tank with as much ice as possible in order to keep the temperature as low as possible and maximise the quality of treatment received.
