Otto Bock Genium 3B1-2 Instructions For Use Manual page 58

► Do not expose the power supply unit, adapter plug or battery charger to extreme loading
conditions.
Immediately replace damaged power supply units, adapter plugs or battery chargers.
►
CAUTION
Failure to observe warning/error signals
Falling due to unexpected product behaviour because of changed damping behaviour.
► The warnings/error signals (see Page 93) and corresponding change in damping settings
must be observed.
CAUTION
Failure to observe activated mute mode (silent mode)
Falling due to unexpected product behaviour because of changed damping behaviour.
The following feedback signals are deactivated when mute mode is activated:
> Long vibration signal if the hydraulic unit overheats.
> Beep and vibration signal to confirm that the movement pattern has been recognised
(switching to a MyMode/basic mode with movement pattern).
> Beep and vibration signal to indicate successful switching to a MyMode/basic mode.
> Beep and vibration signal upon successfully switching to deep sleep mode.
► Before activating mute mode, note that these feedback signals will be deactivated. For more
information about mute mode, see the section "Mute mode" (see Page 81).
► After switching to a MyMode/basic mode, verify the changed damping settings.
Ensure that you stand securely during all switching processes.
►
► To deactivate mute mode, connect and then disconnect the battery charger.
CAUTION
Independent user manipulation of system components
Falling due to breakage of load-bearing components or malfunction of the product.
► Manipulations to the product other than the tasks described in these instructions for use are
not permitted.
► The battery may only be handled by Ottobock authorised, qualified personnel (no replace­
ment by the user).
The product and any damaged components may only be opened and repaired by authorised,
►
qualified Ottobock personnel.
CAUTION
Mechanical stress on the product
> Falling due to unexpected product behaviour as the result of a malfunction.
> Falling due to breakage of load-bearing components.
> Skin irritation due to defects on the hydraulic unit with leakage of liquid.
► Do not subject the product to mechanical vibrations or impacts.
Check the product for visible damage before each use.
►
CAUTION
Use of the product when battery charge level is too low
Falling due to unexpected behaviour of the prosthesis because of changed damping behaviour.
► Check the current charge level before use and charge the prosthesis if required.
