The caution symbol highlights safety information which MUST be followed.
Any changes in the performance or
function of the knee e.g. restricted
movement, non-smooth motion or
unusual noises should be immediately
reported to your service provider.
Always use a hand rail when descending
stairs and at any other time if available.
Any excessive changes in heel height
after programming will adversely
affect knee function and should be
immediately reported to your service
provider for reprogramming and
calibration.
After continuous use the knee casing
may become hot to the touch.
Avoid strong magnetic fields, sources
of electrical interference, atmospheres
containing liquids and/or powders.
Do not place near any heat source. Do
not leave in direct sunshine or inside a
car in hot weather.
The device is not intended for use
when immersed in water or as a shower
prosthesis. If the knee comes into
contact with water turn it off and wipe
dry immediately.
Before connecting the battery charger
to the device, ensure that the magnetic
mating surfaces of the charging
connector and charging terminal are
