CAUTION
Distance to HF communication devices is too small (e.g. mobile phones, Bluetooth
devices, WiFi devices)
Injury due to unexpected behaviour of the prosthesis system caused by interference with internal
data communication.
►
Therefore, keeping the following minimum distances to these HF communication devices is
recommended:
• Mobile phone GSM 850/GSM 900: 0.50 m
• Mobile phone GSM 1800/GSM 1900/UMTS: 0.35 m
• DECT cordless phones incl. base station: 0.18 m
• WiFi (routers, access points,...): 0.11 m
• Bluetooth devices (third-party products not approved by Ottobock): 0.11 m
CAUTION
Wearing in extreme ambient temperatures
Injury due to faulty control or malfunction of the Axon-Bus prosthetic system.
►
Avoid wearing the prosthesis in areas with temperatures outside of the permissible range
(see Page 28).
4.5 Information on Use
CAUTION
Using the prosthesis with pointed or sharp objects (e.g. knives in the kitchen)
Injury due to unintentional movements.
►
Use extra caution when using the prosthesis for handling pointed or sharp objects.
CAUTION
Risk of pinching between the fingertips
Injury due to pinching of body parts.
►
Ensure that no body parts are between the fingertips when using the product.
CAUTION
Overloading due to unusual activities
Injury due to unexpected behaviour of the Axon-Bus prosthetic system as a result of a malfunc
tion.
►
The Axon-Bus prosthetic system was developed for everyday use and must not be used for
unusual activities. These unusual activities include, for example, sports with excessive strain
and/or shocks to the socket connection (pushups, downhill racing, mountain biking, ...) or
extreme sports (free climbing, paragliding, etc.).
Careful handling of the Axon-Bus prosthetic system and the Axon-Bus components not only
►
increases their service life, but is primarily in the interest of your own safety.
►
If the Axon-Bus prosthetic system and the Axon-Bus components have been subjected to
extreme loads (e.g. through a fall or similar occurrence) the prosthesis system must be
inspected by an O&P professional immediately for possible damage. If necessary, the pros
thetist will forward the prosthetic system to an authorised Ottobock Service Centre.
