Connect Elvie Elvie has a sensor inside that tries to connect to your phone when you squeeze it (with your hand or pelvic oor muscles). To connect your Elvie for the rst time, simply squeeze it in your hand for 3 seconds. 2. Insert Elvie Elvie is easy to insert; similar to using a tampon, the pebble shaped part goes inside your vagina and the tail remains outside, facing forward. (images 2a & 2b).Be sure to fully insert the pebble shaped part, but not too high up. If you pull down gently, you will feel a slight resistance against the vaginal opening. If Elvie doesn't feel comfortable, try using water-based lubricant. 2a 2b 78 Extra cover 3 Using Elvie for the rst time 3. Find the right t Elvie can feel too small or loose for many women. Try with and without the cover to see what feels best. To put on the extra cover, simply thread the Elvie tail through the cover and pull over the pebble-shaped part (image 3). 4. Pick exercise position We recommend you try exercising standing up with your legs shoulder width apart (image 4a). If this doesnt feel comfort-
able, try lying down, knees up, legs apart (image 4b). For best results, please set your targets and keep on exercising in the same position over time. 4a 4b 910 How to exercise How to exercise The pelvic oor is a powerful little set of muscles that stretches like a hammock between your pubic bone and your tailbone. When healthy and toned, they lift up your pelvic organs for a strong core and great control. If you arent sure what it feels like to exercise your pelvic oor, Imagine that you are trying to keep yourself from passing gas. This muscle movement is what you need to master. (But don't keep doing it while you're peeing!) When exercising, remember to:
Make sure your stomach, buttocks and thighs remain relaxed and dont hold your breath Take a deep breath to relax and as you breathe out squeeze your pelvic oor inwards and upwards The Elvie app provides more guidance as you exercise. You can also check out elvie.com for videos and more information on how to perfect your exercise technique. Pelvic oor 1112 Connectivity Elvie works the best when the tail is not obscured by clothing or esh. Always keep your legs open when exercising and your phone in the line of sight with Elvie, as detailed in p.10. At the beginning of each exercise, you need to squeeze your Elvie to make it start trying to connect to your phone. It can take up to 15 seconds to connect Elvie, depending on your phone's connectivity. If Elvie disconnects during the exercise, it should reconnect automatically. If you are having troubles reconnecting, try squeezing Elvie for 3 seconds. If that doesn't work, take out Elvie and try squeezing it in your hand. 1314 Taking care of your Elvie Taking care of your Elvie in its carry case Storing Keep Elvie clean, dry and snug Make sure the tail is on top and diagram below facing outwards as per the Things to avoid Extreme heat Extreme cold Sustained pressure Cleaning Clean Elvie before and after every use with warm, soapy water.
