Warning!
Equipment malfunction —
− Magnetic and electrical fields are capable
of interfering with the proper performance
of the unit. For this reason make sure that
all external devices operated in the vicin-
ity of the unit comply with the relevant
EMC requirements. X-ray equipment, MRI
devices, radio systems, cell phones, etc.
are possible sources of interference as they
may emit higher levels of electromagnetic
radiation.
Keep the unit away from such equipment
and verify its performance before use.
− Refer
repair
and
maintenance
to autho-
rized persons.
Persons are authorized after training by a
specialist trained and commissioned by the
manufacturer.
−
Route all cables below the device frame
to either side
, ensuring that they cannot
get caught by the moving parts during
operation.
− Inspect the ARTROMOT® ACTIVE-K for dam-
age and loose connections at least
once a
year
. Damaged and worn parts must im-
mediately be replaced with original spare
parts by authorized staff.

Preventing chafing and pressure sores —
When your patient is
adipose
, very
tall
or
very short
, be sure to prevent chafing and
pressure sores Place the leg concerned in
a moderate abductive position if deemed
appropriate.

Caution!
Equipment damage —
− Check that the voltage and frequency
ratings of your local power line are those
indicated on the rating plate.
− The leg support element withstands a
maximum continuous load
of
30 kg on
both axes (horizontal and vertical).
− Do not allow
any objects
(such as blankets,
cushions, or cables) to get caught in the
moving parts
of the unit.
− Do not expose the ARTROMOT® ACTIVE-K
to direct sunlight, because some of the
components may reach inadmissibly high
temperatures.
Furthermore, the device must be set up at
a safe distance from radiators to prevent
excessive temperature rises.
− The presence of children, pets and rodents
does not normally impair the functioning
of the device. However, avoid contamina-
tion of the device by children or animals,
from dust and lint, and keep them at a safe
distance from the device. The safety state-
ments set forth apply.
