2 Safety Information

This warning symbol highlights important safety information which must be
followed carefully.
Ensure only suitably retrofitted vehicles
are used when driving. All persons are
required to observe their respective
driving laws when operating motor
vehicles.
Do not ascend /descend ladders, the
added range of DF/PF motion may
cause the foot to slip.
Due to the amount of ankle movement
available with this device, take extra
care when operating any form of
machinery.
Be aware of finger trap hazard at all
times. It is recommended that a flexible
cosmetic cover is used to minimise risk.
Always use a hand rail when
descending stairs and at any other time
if available.
Following activities which result in a
high degree of self alignment e.g. after
sitting or stairs descent, weight should
be applied in a neutral position to
restore the foot to its optimal standing
position.
Any changes in the performance or
function of the limb e.g. restricted
movement, non-smooth motion or
unusual noises should be immediately
reported to your service provider.
The device is not suitable for extreme
sports, running or cycle racing, ice and
snow sports, extreme slopes and steps.
Any such activities undertaken are
done so completely at the users' own
risk. Recreational cycling is acceptable.
Assembly, maintenance and repair of
the device must only be carried out by a
suitably qualified clinician.
To minimise the risk of slipping and
tripping, appropriate footwear that
fits securely onto the footshell must be
used at all times.
After continuous use the ankle casing
may become hot to the touch.
Avoid exposure to extreme heat and/or
cold, which may affect ankle stiffness.
The user must not adjust or tamper
