Please observe the following instructions:
• Before getting into the shoe with the orthosis, be sure to open it wide enough. This eases
entry and keeps the toes from curling. You can also wear a sock so you slip into the shoe
more easily.
• Avoid any pumping movement between the leg and orthosis.

experience too much discomfort when wearing your orthosis.
Please consult your orthotist if you experience any problems despite correct handling.

7 Cleaning
NOTICE
Use of improper cleaning agents
Loss of functionality due to damage to materials
►
Do not let your orthosis come into contact with acids or alkaline solutions.
►
Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents.
► Do not use any solvents such as thinner, acetone, gasoline, etc.
Your orthosis requires regular care. Clean the orthosis with a damp cloth. Ottobock Derma
Clean® is recommended for disinfecting the orthosis.
Clean the plastic surfaces with water and skin-friendly soap. Removable pads, if any, can be
washed separately at a maximum temperature of 30°C. It is important that you thoroughly dry the
cleaned surfaces (not on a heater) and make sure that no soap residue remains on the orthosis
since this could cause skin irritation.
Please consult your doctor if you have any questions on skin diseases or disinfection methods.
