2. Lay the covered panel on a flat surface. Be sure the light
emitting side is facing up.
3. Position the baby's chest or back directly on the panel. The cable
connected to the panel should be between the baby's legs.
4. Secure the T-vest to the baby by first wrapping the side without
the tape around the baby's midsection. Then, wrap the side with
the tape tab over the infant, peel off the protective cover on the
tab, and secure it. Be sure the vest is snug.
5. If the T-vest becomes soiled, discard it and replace it with a new
one.
NOTES
For a larger or more active baby, you may want to tape the panel to the baby's
diaper.
To be sure the panel is not wrapped too tightly, insert your finger between the
panel and the baby's body. Your finger should fit easily.
You may wrap the baby in a blanket or put the baby in a sleeper.
WARNING
If using tape to secure the panel, do not adhere the tape to the baby's skin.
