Figure 13-5 Replacing the Rubber Bladder
To replace the rubber bladder in the cuff:
1. Place the bladder on top of the cuff so the rubber tubes line up with the large
opening on the long side of the cuff.
2. Roll the bladder lengthwise and insert it into the opening on the long side of the
cuff.
3. Hold the tubes and the cuff and shake the complete cuff until the bladder is in
position.
4. Thread the rubber tubes from inside the cuff, and out through the small hole
under the internal flap.
CAUTION
z Some disinfectants may cause skin irritation. Please rinse cuff
thoroughly with water to remove any residual disinfectants. Using dark
colored disinfectants may stain the cuffs. Test a single cuff to ensure
that no damage will occur.
