Walking Backwards; Movement Pattern In Activity Mode B (Semi-Locked Mode) / B+ (Semi-Locked Mode With Stance Phase Flexion); Standing; Walking - Otto Bock Kenevo 3C60 Instructions For Use Manual

8.1.8 Walking backwards

8.2 Movement pattern in activity mode B (semi-locked mode) / B+ (semi-locked
mode with stance phase flexion)

8.2.1 Standing

Activity mode B (semi-locked mode)
Activity mode B+ (semi-locked mode with stance phase flexion)

8.2.2 Walking

8.2.3 Sitting down

The prosthesis makes it possible to sit down without unlocking it manually. The adjustable flexion
resistance of the hydraulic unit provides support while sitting down.
We recommend that the user supports themselves with their hands while sitting down, e.g.:
• Support on the armrests of the chair
• Support on the handles of a walker

The knee joint is locked in the flexion direction. Proceed as you would with a
rigid knee joint.
The knee joint is locked in the flexion direction.
INFORMATION:The joint responds to a sitting movement by switching
to high flexion resistance.
The knee joint is locked starting at stance phase flexion of up to 10°.
INFORMATION:The joint responds to a sitting movement by switching
to high flexion resistance.
Initial attempts at walking with the prosthesis always require the instruction of
trained, qualified personnel.
The hydraulics stabilise the knee joint in the stance phase and release the
knee joint in the swing phase so that the leg can swing forward freely.
In order to safely switch to the swing phase, the prosthesis has to be partially
unloaded from the lunge position with a simultaneous forward movement.
If desired, stance phase flexion of up to 10° can be permitted for this mode in
the adjustment software (setting only available in activity mode B).
