14 Maintenance

INFORMATION
This component was tested for three million load cycles in accordance with ISO 10328.
Depending on the activity level, this corresponds to a service life of three to five years.
The duration of use can be individually extended depending on the intensity of use by performing regular service
inspections.
Regular maintenance (service inspections) at 12-month intervals is mandatory in the interest of patient safety and in
order to maintain operating reliability and protect the warranty, maintain basic safety and the essential performance
characteristics, and ensure safety in regards to EMC.
When maintenance is due, this is indicated by feedback after disconnecting the battery charger (see the section
"Operating states/error signals", see page 55). The manufacturer grants a grace period of no more than two
months before, or three months after, the due date.
Additional services such as repairs may be provided in the course of maintenance. These additional services may
be provided free of charge or can be billable according to an advance cost estimate, depending on the extent and
validity of the warranty.
The following components must always be sent in for maintenance and repairs:
The product with installed tube adapter, battery charger and power supply unit. The shipping container for the
loaner unit you receive must be reused for sending back the components requiring inspection.
Before shipping, the knee head of the prosthetic knee joint has to be extended. The knee head must not be flexed!
INFORMATION
If a remote control was included in the scope of delivery as an optional product accessory, it must also be sent
along with the product for service inspections.
