Otto Bock C-Leg 3C98-3 Instructions For Use Manual page 22

CAUTION
Using the product without calibration
Falling due to unexpected product behaviour as the result of the swing phase being initiated too
early/too late.
Use the adjustment software to carry out calibration at the beginning of static alignment
►
optimisation and at the end of dynamic alignment optimisation.
CAUTION
Using the prosthesis on the patient with the knee extender installed
Falling due to unexpected prosthesis behaviour.
Before trial fitting the prosthesis on the patient, remove the knee extender.
►
Do not use the knee joint with the knee extender inserted under any circumstances during
►
dynamic alignment optimisation.
CAUTION
Incorrect processing of tube
Falling due to damage to the tube.
Do not clamp the tube into a vice.
►
For shortening the tube, use only a tube cutter.
►
3.6 Information on Proximity to Certain Areas
CAUTION
Insufficient distance to HF communication devices (e.g. mobile phones, Bluetooth
devices, WiFi devices)
Falling due to unexpected behaviour of the product caused by interference with internal data
communication.
Therefore, keeping a minimum distance of 30 cm to HF communication devices is recom­
►
mended.
CAUTION
Operating the product in very close proximity to other electronic devices
Falling due to unexpected behaviour of the product caused by interference with internal data
communication.
Do not operate the product in the immediate vicinity of other electronic devices.
►
Do not stack the product with other electronic devices during operation.
►
If simultaneous operation cannot be avoided, monitor the product and verify proper use in
►
the existing setup.
CAUTION
Proximity to sources of strong magnetic or electrical interference (e.g. theft prevention
systems, metal detectors)
Falling due to unexpected behaviour of the product caused by interference with internal data
communication.
Ensure that the patient is not in the vicinity of sources of strong magnetic and electrical inter­
►
ference during trial fitting (such as theft prevention systems, metal detectors...).
If this cannot be avoided, ensure at least that the patient has a safeguard when walking or
standing (e.g. a handrail or the support of another person).
