USAGE GUIDELINES
- Initial Fit: Open the brace and place the foot so that the gel interior conforms around the ankle. Make sure the ankle is centered between the two hard shell panels.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS
- Surface Cleaning: Use a damp cloth or antibacterial wipe to clean the exterior shell and interior gel pads. Mild soap may be used for tougher dirt buildup.
- Avoid Immersion: Do not submerge the brace in water, as it may damage the gel components and structural integrity.
- Drying: Allow the brace to air dry completely before reapplying. Avoid using hair dryers or direct heat sources which could warp the plastic shell.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. Do not fold or crush the brace to avoid deforming the structure.
