How to use your DRI Sleeper
®
excel
1. Plug the Urosensor
™
into the DRI Sleeper
®
excel alarm.
2. Test the alarm by placing something metal (stainless steel knife or stainless
steel scissors) across the Urosensor
™
and the alarm will trigger.
3. Unplug the Urosensor
™
from the alarm box to disconnect the alarm after
testing.
4. Clip the alarm to the child’s night clothes – at the shoulder near the ear is best
and avoids the child lying on it.
5. Place the Urosensor
™
inside a minipad by making a pocket
in the absorbent layers of the material. To do this, cut a
25mm (1 inch) slit into the absorbent layers with a sharp pair
of scissors. Alternatively, cut the top off the minipad. With
the point of the scissors create a pocket for the Urosensor
™
to slide into.
NOTE: the top layer of a minipad is designed to stay dry and
if the Urosensor
™
is placed just under the top layer it may
not become wet and trigger the alarm when your child wets.
Make sure the Urosensor
™
is inserted under some layers of
absorbent material so that they will become wet and press onto
the Urosensor
™
.
Avoid using the very thin type of minipad because they can cause unreliable
triggering e.g. triggering in response to sweat or not triggering at all due to
insufcient absorbent material.
