Insert the band into one of the tag slits and pull until approximately 1cm or 0.5inches of conductive material has been pulled through. 2. Pull back on the band so that the contact pins make a secure contact with the conducting sheath. 3. Using safety scissors cut the band so that the edge of the band is level with the face of the tag and trim the corners. 4.

Slide bracelet over foot and onto ankle with tag facing outwards with the cut band end towards the heal 6. Pull the exposed end until secure however be careful not to over-tighten the band. Confirm that the tag is snug enough to prevent removal over the baby’s heal, yet loose enough to allow circulation. 7.
