− Do not allow parts of the body or objects
(such as blankets, cushions, or cables) to get
caught in the moving parts of the physio-
therapy unit.
– The simultaneous treatment of both legs by
simultaneous use of two CPM devices is not
permitted because the motion elements
might interfere with each other.
− If the physiotherapy unit is used in the
active mode or in the coordination mode,
the side supports (25) must be folded down
to stabilize the unit and protect it against
moving at the end of the mattress.
− The sole purpose of the side supports is to
prevent that the unit moves while in use.
Do not use them to adjust the angle setting
of the unit. The supports are not designed
for this purpose.
− For transporting the ARTROMOT® ACTIVE-K,
the side supports must be folded in to
prevent pinching fingers.
− Stability of the physiotherapy unit must
always be ensured while it is in use. The
ARTROMOT® ACTIVE-K must only be setup
of surfaces that guarantee its stability. Very
soft or instable surfaces (such as waterbeds)
are NOT suitable.
− The utmost caution is advised under the
following conditions. Depending on the
judgement of the responsible physician,
the unit may only be applied under supervi-
sion and with the parameters defined by
the responsible physician. Otherwise the
exercise may be too strenuous for the
patient:
1. hypertension (> stage 2), ischemic heart
disease and cerebrovascular diseases
2. cardiovascular diseases
3. pregnancy
4. age: under 16 years

Warning!
Shock hazard — Strictly observe the following
warnings. Failure to do so endangers the lives
of the patient, the user, and other persons
involved.
− Allow the ARTROMOT® ACTIVE-K to reach
room temperature
before use
. If the device
has been transported at temperatures
below 0°C (32°F), leave it to dry at room
temperature for about 2 hours, until any
condensation has disappeared.
− The ARTROMOT® ACTIVE-K must only be
operated in
dry rooms
.
− When disconnecting the unit from the
power line, remove the plug from the wall
outlet first, before disconnecting the cable
from the device.
− When connecting the unit to other equip-
ment or when creating a medical system,
check that the sum of leakage currents will
not cause any hazard. Please contact DJO
Global if you have questions in this matter.
− Do not use multiple portable socket outlets
(MPSO) to connect the unit to the power
line. The ARTROMOT® ACTIVE-K must be
connected to a
properly installed wall
outlet with a non-fused earthed wire
.
Before connecting the power cord, it must
be completely unrolled and placed such
that it will not get caught in the moving
parts of the unit.
− Before cleaning and service interventions,
disconnect the unit from the power line
by removing the power cord from the wall
outlet.
−
Liquids must not be allowed
to enter
the physiotherapy unit or the control pen-
dant. If liquids have entered into the units,
ARTROMOT® ACTIVE-K must be immediate-
ly checked by a service technician, before it
can be reused.
