2.3. Safety instructions
Please make your patients aware of the following safety instructions:
WARNING
Risk of accident while operating a vehicle. The ability of prosthesis
wearers to operate a vehicle is determined on a case-by-case basis.
Factors include the type of fitting (amputation level, unilateral or
bilateral, residual limb conditions, design of the prosthesis) and the
individual abilities of the prosthesis wearer.
All persons are required to observe their country’s national and state
driving laws when operating motor vehicles. For insurance purposes,
drivers should have their driving ability examined and approved by an
authorised test centre.
In general, Medical Bionics recommends that vehicles should be
professionally retrofitted to meet each user’s individual needs (e.g.
steering fork, automatic transmission). Risk-free driving should be
ensured even when the prosthesis is not functioning.
NOTICE
Risk of injury as a result of improper manipulation. Inadvertent
activation of the actuating button (Figure 1) can cause the terminal
device to change position.
