Be careful not to pull the pockets of the Heel Sock. The pockets are constructed only
for holding the Heel Switch in place and not for being pulled.
7.5.2 Heel Switch Feedback
The Control Unit gives a short beep and the Heel Switch light indicator flashes for
every signal from the Heel Switch; both at heel lift and heel strike. This is called Heel
Switch feedback. It can be used to check if the Heel Switch is activated properly during
walking. The Heel Switch feedback can be muted (see section 7.1.3 on page 19).
When you have put on the Heel Switch and before you start to walk, you should
check that the Heel Switch is activated when you put your weight on it.
The Heel Switch light indicator.
Make sure that the Control Unit is switched on. If the Control Unit is switched on but
no lights are on, the lights are powered down and you must press one of the buttons
to turn them back on.
Stand up with your weight on the foot
without the Heel Switch
