Guidance and manufacturer's declaration – electromagnetic immunity
Össur Myoelectric Prosthetic Devices are intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below.
The customers or the users of Össur Myoelectric Prosthetic Devices should assure that each are used in such an
environment.

Note 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
Note 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption
and reflection from structures, objects, and people.
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/ cordless) telephones and land
a
mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically
with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site
survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Össur Myoelectric
Prosthetic Devices are used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, Össur Myoelectric Prosthetic
Devices should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal
performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re- orienting or relocating the Össur
Myoelectric Prosthetic Devices
