8 Preparation for use

8.1 Alignment

The following alignment guidelines contain descriptions for connecting the knee joint to a prosthetic socket. In
principle, the alignment of the prosthesis is independent of the type of connection for the knee joint. In case of a
connection to an osseointegrated, percutaneous implant system, a socket is not used during bench alignment in
the alignment apparatus. In this case, the central proximal point on the prosthetic socket corresponds to the
trochanter of the thigh bone (see illustration in the section "Bench alignment in the alignment apparatus" see
Page 24).
Ensure that possible flexion or adduction of the transfemoral residual limb can be compensated to a permissible
extent by an adapter approved by the implant manufacturer in the course of static alignment optimisation. Safe
functioning of the knee joint is only guaranteed with biomechanically correct alignment.

If the product does not emit any signals when querying the charge level (see Page 22), the battery is drained or the
product is switched off.
Switching on the product
1) Connect the power supply with battery charger to the wall socket.
2) Connect the battery charger to the product.
3) Wait for feedback signals.
4) Disconnect the battery charger from the product.
→ After feedback signals are emitted (self test), the product is switched on.
Switching on Bluetooth
Upon delivery the Bluetooth function of the prosthesis is switched on.
The Bluetooth function can be switched off using the cockpit app or the remote control. When the Bluetooth func­
tion is switched off, it is only turned on for 2 minutes after connecting/disconnecting the battery charger and is then
turned off again automatically. When a connection with the PC is active (the
function is not switched off automatically.
