6.3 Donning the Prosthesis
Your Ottobock team instructed you in how to don the prosthesis. The following donning tech­
nique is well proven:
1) Apply the donning assist (e.g. elastic bandage/elastic sock/EasyProth donning assist) over
your residual limb up to the crotch. Include all soft tissue.
2) Push the free end of the donning assist to the outside through the valve opening.
3) Slide your residual limb into the prosthetic socket.
4) Draw the donning assist to the outside. Slide your residual limb into the prosthetic socket.
5) Gradually draw out the donning assist. Ensure that all soft tissue remains in the prosthetic
socket.
6) Insert the valve and allow the air to escape.
Remove the prosthesis if it does not fit properly. Try donning the prosthesis again. Contact your
prosthetist in case of any problems.
6.4 Wearing of the Prosthesis
WARNING
Operation of motor vehicles
Risk of accidents due to restricted body function
► Observe the applicable legal and insurance regulations for the operation of motor vehicles
and have your driving ability examined and certified by an authorised agency.
CAUTION
Excessive strain on load-bearing components
Injuries due to breakage of load-bearing components
► Sports activities are only permitted after consultation with your doctor or orthotist.
►
If the product has been exposed to extreme strain (e.g. due to falling), take any necessary
measures (e.g. repair, replacement, inspection by the manufacturer's customer service
etc.).
An energy-saving and natural gait requires a functional prosthesis. Please consult your prosthetist
if you experience any problems despite correct handling.
6.5 Doffing of the Prosthesis
1) Remove the valve.
2) Push the prosthesis down by the socket brim.
7 Cleaning and Care

►
Only disinfect the product with the approved disinfectants.

Your prosthesis, especially the inner socket, requires regular cleaning.
Prosthesis
Cleaning with a damp cloth will generally be sufficient. Ottobock recommends Derma Clean to
disinfect the prosthesis. Clean any plastic surfaces with water and skin-friendly soap. Dry the
cleaned areas thoroughly. Do not place the prosthesis on a radiator or other heat source. Ensure
that no soap residue is left on the prosthesis, since this could cause skin irritation on the residual
limb.
