2. Pass the hex wrench through the hole in the septum located on the top of the IPG header
and tighten each set screw until the hex wrench "clicks," indicating lock.
CAUTION: Ensure that the lead is fully inserted before tightening the setscrew to prevent
lead damage.
Note: • If a port plug is used, it is still necessary to tighten the setscrew on the port plug, as
described above.
• The hex wrench is torque-limited and cannot be overtightened.
3. Place the IPG in the subcutaneous pocket with label facing towards the skin.
4. Coil excess lead, extension or splitter under the IPG.
CAUTION: Do not excessively bend the Splitter 2x8 receptacle. Bending the receptacle at
a radius tighter than 2" (5 cm) may result in loss of stimulation via one or more contacts.
Ensure the correct lengths of leads are selected to prevent excessive coiling.
5. Secure the IPG in the pocket by suturing through the holes in the IPG header.
CAUTION: Do not suture through leads or splitter.
6. Close and dress the wound(s).
