CAUTION
Penetration of water in the remote control. The remote control is not waterproof. If water penetrates the
remote control, the device may become damaged (guaranty will become void). This can lead to malfunction
of the remote control, result in unexpected actions of the joint, and cause you to fall.
Should water have penetrated the remote control, the device should be dried at room temperature for at
least one day. Before starting to reuse the remote control, return it to an authorized Otto Bock Service for
inspection. Your prosthetist is the contact person
INFORMATION
Important user information for switching modes and configurations with the remote control!
Deliberately keep the joint and the residual limb still (do not bend or extend!).
The remote control must be activated before switching modes or changing configurations.
The remote automatically deactivates itself, if no action is performed within three seconds after activation
of the remote control (e.g. switching between 1st mode and 2nd/3rd mode, configuration of the standing
mode functionality, etc.).
For safety purposes, the working range of the remote control is limited to approximately 70 cm (28 in.).
However, the remote control will only function properly if held at least 30 cm (12 in.) away from the joint.
If a mode switch was not performed, place the remote between 30 cm and 70 cm (12 in. to 28 in.) of the
C-Leg and repeat the command.
Activating 1st Mode
Activation of the remote control:
Press key 3 and kep it pressed (Fig. 1) until the joint confirms the activation with a
vibration signal

Activation of the 1st mode:

INFORMATION
If the C-Leg is in the 2nd mode, this is the way to switch to the 1st mode.
If the C-Leg is in the 3rd mode, this is the way to switch to the 1st mode.
If the C-Leg already is in the 1st mode, this mode will be reconfirmed.
The 1st mode remains turned on until you actively switch to the 2nd or 3rd mode.
