Î Ask the patient to place his or her head on the chin and forehead rest.

Î The black ring marking between the chin rest and the forehead rest (1) should be
used for gauging the required height of the patient’s eyes.

The patient is positioned correctly when chin and forehead touch the rests and the
eyes are level with the marking.
