Storage and Handling
It is recommended that prosthetic feet be stored in a cool, clean, dry environment
away from harsh chemicals (chlorine, acids, acetone, etc.).
Warnings and Precautions
CAUTION: The AP2 is designed to be maintenance free and should not be
disassembled. The pyramid dome on the foot is permanently attached to
the pylon (main and top) spring and should not be removed.
CAUTION: Fillauer has tested (ISO 10328) and recommends the use
of standard, adult, endoskeletal components from Fillauer with all
Fillauer feet. Components from other manufacturers may or may not be
compatible. Failure due to use of other manufacturers’ products is not
covered under warranty.
CAUTION: Abnormal or improper environmental conditions will lead to
malfunctioning and damage of the prosthesis and is not covered under
the warranty of the device. This prosthetic/orthotic component must not
be subjected to dust/debris, liquids other than fresh water, abrasives,
vibration, activities which would damage the biological limb, or prolonged,
extreme temperatures (< -5 °C or > 50 °C). Do not allow debris or liquids
to remain in the prosthesis and its components during use. Rinse the foot
with fresh water and dry immediately after exposure.
CAUTION: The foot unit is waterproof to 1 meter. However, if the foot is
submerged, the foot and foot shell should be rinsed with fresh water and
dried immediately to remove salt, chlorine, or debris. The foot shell and
sock will experience significant deterioration if not allowed to fully dry
before return to normal use and are not covered under warranty for this
failure.
NOTICE: The foot should be inspected by the clinician every six months
for signs of abnormal wear and to assure that the attachment/alignment
screws are secure.
NOTICE: The foot stiffness is based on weight and activity level. Please
provide accurate patient information so that the appropriate foot may be
selected .
