How to Apply Your PROSE Device with a Plunger

Empty the contents of the case (i.e. the prosthetic device) into the palm of your hand.
1
With the other hand, GENTLY grasp the device by the edges. Note: the device should be
wet during this process.
Squeeze in on the sides of the plunger before coming into contact with the prosthetic
2
device.
Place the face of the plunger over the prosthetic device, and release side pressure on
3
plunger, creating a vacuum between the plunger and the PROSE device.
Release the sides of the device, holding it with the plunger.

IMPORTANT: Holding the device with the fingers while applying the plunger lessens the
force against the device. ALWAYS handle the device by the edges when attempting to
attach the plunger to the device. DO NOT attach the plunger while the device is resting on
a hard surface such as a table or counter top. This will place excessive force on the device,
risking breakage. Never squeeze the sides, or place pressure on the face, of the device.
IMPROPER USE OF PLUNGER DURING DEVICE APPLICATION
• DO NOT apply force with plunger in a downward motion causing device to break
• DO NOT use the plunger to contact the device while it is sitting on a hard surface
• DO NOT attempt to take a device out of the case with a plunger
