4.2 General Safety Instructions

CAUTION
Incorrect electrode settings
Injury due to faulty control or malfunction of the product.
► The electrodes are to be placed on intact skin only and with as much electrode-skin con­
tact as possible. In the case of strong interference from electronic devices, the position
of the electrodes should be checked and changed if necessary. If the interference can­
not be eliminated or if you do not achieve the expected results by adjustment or selection
of the appropriate control programme, please contact Ottobock Myo-Service.
► Set the electrode gains as low as possible to reduce the risk of malfunctioning due to
strong electromagnetic radiation (e.g. visible or concealed theft prevention systems at
the entrance/exit of stores, metal detectors/body scanners for persons (e.g. in airports)
or other sources of strong electromagnetic interference (e.g. high-voltage lines, transmit­
ters, transformer stations, computer tomographs, magnetic resonance tomographs,
etc.).
Allow the patient to rest during the adjustment of the electrodes; otherwise, muscle
►
fatigue will lead to inconsistent results. As a result, the therapist will tend to set the elec­
trode gains too high.
