encouraged to attempt correction of the interference by:

• Reorienting or relocating the receiving antenna.
• Increasing the distance between the device and receiver.
• Connecting the device to an outlet on a circuit different from that to 

which the receiver is connected.

• Consulting the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Electromagnetic radiation from other radio transmitters or other 
electronic equipment may cause noise in the head speaker. To eliminate 
this noise, move manikin away from the radiation source or turn the head 
speaker volume to zero.

To attach 

Right Leg

 (with enclosed air tank):

1. Remove bladder reservoir from pelvis.
2. Remove blank genitalia module from pelvic region of torso.
3. Carefully slide the tubing and wiring exiting the fixed bolt from the upper 

thigh of the right leg through the abdominal connector hole and into 
internal cavity of pelvic area. (Photo 1)
