Negative side effects No negative side effects have been recorded or reported as a result of training with the MOTOmed exercise therapy device. Notes on the residual risk: The principle of the MOTOmed movement therapy device is based on the function of electric motors, which drive the cranks of the arm or leg trainer with defined forces.
Safety precautions General information Adjust the MOTOmed training to the individual clinical picture. Training tips by the manufacturer or its distribution partners are not binding. We cannot specify exactly how you should use the MOTOmed for the various diseases. This also applies to the details of the training functions, as the possible settings are dependent on age, height, individual fitness, postoperative resilience and general condition of the user.

The hand grips, or the foot shells and calf shells of the leg guides, may generally come into contact with intact skin. When using fastening straps, wear socks and/or shoes, long pants or similar textiles. This avoids the direct contact of the skin with the foot shells or fastening straps and thus prevents bruises, skin irritations and abrasions.

Safety and technical information The MOTOmed is a highly specialized movement therapy device that is not designed for high-performance sports or for diagnostic purposes. We recommend using approved and calibrated ergometers or treadmills for this purpose. As a electrically powered medical device, the MOTOmed is subject to special precautions regarding EMC.
Page 17
CAUTION Risk of injury due to rotating pedal cranks and moving parts of the device Do not make any mechanical adjustments (pedal radius, height adjustment of hand and grab handles or arm/upper body trainer, etc.) on the MOTOmed while the pedal cranks are turning. When operating the buttons on the operating panel, also pay attention to the rotating pedal cranks.
Page 18
The surface temperature of the operating panel housing of is up to 13 °C above the ambient temperature due to the heat dissipation of the electronic components. Even if not exposed to direct sunlight, the buttons of the operating panel temperatures may reach up to 53 °C at the maximum permissible ambient temperature (40 °C).
