Please note:
Only wear Adjustable Compression Wraps ACW
if they have been prescribed by a doctor. These
systems should only be dispensed by properly
trained staff at a medical retailer.
In addition to use by medical specialists, ACW
are also suited for long-term and self-therapy if
patients or their carers 1) are able to do so based
on their cognitive and motor skills and 2) have been
instructed in the correct use by medical specialists.
ACW have been exclusively designed for the
specific body part (foot, lower leg, knee, thigh, hand
and arm) in accordance with the relevant product
designations. Based on their short-stretch prop-
erties, ACW have mechanically limited elasticity.
The desired treatment effect is based on correct
use. After adjusting the hook and loop fasteners,
the user must therefore ensure each time that the
product exerts pleasant, noticeable compression.
If you feel pain or notice any other problems,
loosen the touch fasteners immediately. Progress in
treatment success may require a remeasurement of
body dimensions and, if necessary, a new product.
Please contact your specialist retailer in the event
of damage to your medical adaptive compression
system or its accessories. Do not repair the product
yourself – this may affect its quality and medical
effectiveness.
Washing and care instructions
Please note the care instructions on the textile
label sewn into your compression garment. Prior to
washing, either remove or close all touch fasteners.
The products can be machine-washed at 30 °C
using a laundry detergent for delicate fabrics. Tip: A
laundry net additionally protects the product. Please
do not use fabric softener. Never use bleach. Do not
tumble dry. You can reduce drying time by placing
the products on a thick towel after washing, tightly
rolling the towel up and firmly squeezing out excess
moisture. Do not leave the product in the towel and
do not dry it on a radiator or in the sun. Juzo ACS
Light and Juzo Compression Wrap products must
not be ironed. The products are not suitable for
dry cleaning. The intervals between washing can
be extended by wearing a liner stocking (e.g. Juzo
Liner 6082 AD, Juzo Liner 6082 AG).

Side effects
With a correct indication and implementation of
compression therapy, it is a safe and effective
measure. Based on the drying effect underneath
the compression product, dry skin and flaking is
to be expected regularly. This can be alleviated
with timely skin care, which should be part of any
compression therapy. We therefore recommend
that you care for your skin using a pH-neutral water-
in-oil emulsion (e.g. Juzo Lymph Lotion).
Otherwise, there are no known side effects when
using this product correctly. However, if you notice
any adverse changes (e.g. skin irritation) during the
prescribed use, please consult your doctor, thera-
pist or medical retailer immediately. If you know you
are allergic to any product ingredients, please con-
sult your doctor or therapist before using it. If your
symptoms worsen during the time you are wearing
the product, please take off the product and consult
a medical specialist immediately. The manufacturer
