INFORMATION
Advise your patients of the information in this section
The knee joint can be used in normal operation in basic mode (incl optional Intuitive Stance function, Sitting
function, Stairs and Obstacles function and OPG function) and in up to five different MyModes The MyModes
can be activated using the remote control
Basic mode is used on a day-to-day basis, while the MyModes are pre-programmed for specific movements and
/ or postures such as standing at a workbench, cycling, inline skating or cross-country skiing
X-Soft is used to configure which MyModes are used as well as their settings However, some parameters can
also be adjusted with the remote control
CAUTION
Improper MyMode switching using the remote control. MyMode switching using the remote control chan-
ges the damping behaviour of the knee joint In certain situations, this may cause the patient to fall
The patient must stand securely when switching between modes and must carefully confirm whether the desi-
red function was successfully set by the knee joint
CAUTION
Penetration of water into the remote control. The remote control is not waterproof Under ambient condi-
tions where the remote control may get wet, using the supplied 4X194 Arm Band for protection is recommen-
ded If water penetrates the remote control, the device may be damaged This can lead to malfunctions of the
remote control, result in unexpected actions of the knee joint and cause the patient to fall
Should the remote control accidentally come into contact with water then be dried at room temperature for at
least 1 day Before using the remote control again, send it to an authorised Ottobock Service Centre

can lead to malfunctions and result in unexpected actions of the knee joint This may cause the patient to fall

CAUTION
Unauthorised connection. If an unauthorised connection between a remote control and a knee joint is estab-
lished, the knee joint can react unexpectedly This may cause the patient to fall Pairing between the knee joint
and the remote control does not require any password or acknowledgment from the knee joint It is therefore
theoretically possible (with known serial number of the knee joint or if only one knee joint is within range of the
remote control), that a third party performs pairing with the knee joint and changes settings or switches MyMo-
des
