1. You activate a function by
briefly pressing a control on
the programming unit.
2. You select a treatment value by
pressing the respective control
and turning it in either direction.
You increase a value by turning the
control clockwise towards the +
(plus) symbol and you decrease a
value by turning the control counter-
clockwise towards the - (minus)
symbol.
For the first 5° the values in the dis-
play change in steps of 1°, then the
interval changes to 5° so that you
reach the target value faster.
During adjustment of the extension
and flexion angles, the values in the
display change as you turn the con-
trol after pressing it.
When adjusting speed or pause,
the information shown in the display
changes automatically as you press
the control.
The selected parameter (speed or
pause) is immediately represented
by its symbol in a large format plus
the current value (also refer to 2.2.2).
The current value can be changed
by turning the depressed control.
When you have set the new value,
release the control and the standard
display reappears automatically after
approx. 5 seconds (see also 2.2.1).
3. Subsequently press the
START/STOP key to start therapy.
