1.3 Conditions of Use

INFORMATION
Advise your patients of the information in this section.
The C-Leg was developed for everyday activities and not for extreme sports such as free climbing, parachuting or
paragliding. For the necessary environmental conditions, please see Section 3.3 "Technical Information".
The C-Leg prosthesis system is designed exclusively for use on one patient. Use of the product by other persons
is not approved by the manufacturer.

1.4 Qualification of the Prosthetist

The fitting of a patient with a C-Leg may only be carried out by prosthetists who have been authorized with the cor-
responding Ottobock training.

1.5 Function

The 3C98-2/3C88-2 C-Leg is a hydraulically damped, monocentric knee joint with fully microprocessor-controlled
stance phase and swing phase. Strain gauges in the tube adapter measure the anterior and posterior bending
moment; a knee angle sensor measures the flexion angle and angular velocity of the knee joint. These measured
variables are transmitted to the microprocessor, which then calculates the necessary movement resistance. Ser-
vomotors correspondingly open and close hydraulic valves to provide the required flexion and extension damping.
This allows the C-Leg to adapt in real time to the individual requirements and the activities of the prosthesis wearer.
Additional modes permit activities such as cycling, cross-country skiing or inline skating.
