Otto Bock C‑Leg 3C98-2 Information For Users page 26

Application
Charging the C-Leg Knee Joint System
CAUTION
Incorrect behaviour while charging the joint. If you walk while the battery charger is connected to the
prosthesis, you can get caught on the cable and fall.
Take off the prosthesis prior to charging.
CAUTION
Incorrect handling while charging the joint. If the joint is not flexed completely during charging, the charging
plug can get damaged and the joint can no longer be charged. This can lead to insufficient power supply
to the electronics of the joint and result in undefined conditions. This can cause you to fall.
During charging, keep the C-Leg fully flexed.
INFORMATION
Before using your 4E50-* Battery Charger, make sure your prosthetist has instructed you in its correct use.
INFORMATION
The capacity of a fully charged battery is sufficient for one full day. We recommend charging the battery
over night when using the prosthesis on a daily basis.
Charging is only possible at temperatures above 0 °C.
1 Bend the C-Leg until it hits the stop.
2 Remove the red Protective Plug.
3 Connect the 4E50-* Battery Charger and verify the charging status (see following figures).
