Step 2: When flow stops, close the Drain Clamp then squeeze
the Reservoir to infuse water into the stomach. Use as little
water as possible to clear the drain path (usually about a
quarter of the Reservoir) to avoid an overfull stomach, which
may be uncomfortable.
Step 3: To restart draining, open the Drain Clamp. Repeat Steps
2 and 3 as necessary.
Note: The Connector counts down, so it should display a cycle
count one number less than prior to attachment. When the
Counter reads "00", you have completed 115 cycles and a new
Connector must be obtained. If you continue to use the Connector,
it will then read "-9" and become disabled to prevent future use.
Tip: Try changing body position or squeezing abdominal

muscles to re-start flow prior to infusing water.
Step 4: After the stomach feels empty, push the Connector
lever counter-clockwise until it reaches a stop. The Connector
can then be pulled away from the Skin-Port.
