Optional: Installing The Foam Cover - Otto Bock Genium 3B1-3 Instructions For Use Manual

Preparing the product for use
The flexion stop can be removed to increase the flexion angle. In this case, it must be ensured that the socket and
the hydraulic unit do not collide (see Page 29).
INFORMATION
Always use screws of similar type on the same flexion stop
When installing the screws, make sure that screws of similar type are always used on the same flexion stop.
Using a cap screw and a countersunk screw together to install the flexion stop is not permitted.

7.2 Optional: Installing the foam cover

If a cosmetic foam cover is installed on the knee joint, the inductive charging receiver has to be moved.

> Recommended tools and materials:
4X258 installation tool for inductive charger, 4X259 installation ring for inductive charger
1) Remove the receiver of the inductive charging unit from the holder in the knee joint with the installation tool by
turning counter-clockwise (see fig. 4).
2) Use a suitable tool to shorten the installation ring on the slotted side so that the length of the installation ring is
the same as the material thickness of the foam cover above the circular opening at the rear of the knee joint
(see fig. 5).
3) Cut a circular opening in the foam cover so that the installation ring can be attached above the corresponding
opening in the frame of the knee joint.
4) Glue the installation ring into the foam cover (see fig. 6).
5) Insert the receiver of the inductive charging unit into the installation ring using the installation tool. Ensure that
the cable is stowed away securely (see fig. 7).
6) The receiver can now be covered by a stocking or similar covering. The magnet holds the charger regardless of
this cover.
INFORMATION
If the distance between the battery charger and charging receiver is greater than 2 mm, the knee joint cannot be
charged anymore. This is indicated by feedback on the battery charger (see Page 53). However, charging should
not be a problem if there is a sock or SuperSkin between the transmitter and receiver of the charger.
