Instructions for using douches nos. 14, 15, 16 and 17. Mount the tank as high on a wall as possible and douche while standing or squatting. Insert the hose into the top of the tank with the douche tube (this is not necessary if the douche tube is equipped with a valve), then fill the tank with warm water and, if a doctor has described some kind of medication, mix it with the water.

Applying slight pressure to the tube will prevent the water from running out. The douche tube is then removed from the tank. The user squats over a bucket, and the water gently flows from the douche tube, which has been inserted into the vulva, and rinses the uterine orifice and cervix.

Insert the douche tube deep into the vagina to douche the uterine orifice and cervix. The douche can be thorough or gentle, depending on the amount of pressure exerted on the bulb. When washing the pump, remove the douche tube and attach the small tip in its place.
