CAUTION
Consequences of product deterioration. Wear and tear on system components can lead to mal-
function of the DynamicArm, resulting in a risk of injury.
Follow the specified service intervals.
NOTICE
Water and Humidity. The electrical and mechanical systems of your DynamicArm are not water-resistant.
You must prevent water from entering the DynamicArm. Be careful not to let water run over the top of the
prosthetic glove and enter the DynamicArm as well as the System Electric Hand or System Electric Greifer.
If water enters the inside of the prothesis for any reason, immediately switch off all components and stop
using or charging them. Please contact your certified prosthetist immediately to avoid further damage.
WARNING
Risk of accident while operating a vehicle. An upper extremity amputee's ability to drive 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 amputee's abilities. All persons are
required to observe their country's national and state driving laws when operating vehicles. For insurance
purposes, drivers should have their driving ability examined and approved by an authorized test center.
For maximum safety and convenience, Ottobock recommends that, at the very least, a specialist evaluate
the need for any adaptations to the car (such as by installing a steering fork). It is indispensable to ensure
that the driver is able to operate the vehicle without any risk with the DynamicArm turned off. Driving with
the DynamicArm turned ON may present a risk if the DynamicArm inadvertently moves due to unintentio-
nal muscle contraction or other causes.
NOTICE
Use of an incorrect AC adapter. Use of an incorrect AC adapter can lead to destruction of the product.
Use only the supplied AC adapter.
CAUTION
Too close to HF communication devices (e.g. mobile phones, Bluetooth devices, WiFi
devices)
If too close to HF communication devices, interference with internal data communications can result in
malfunctions of the product. This can lead to a risk of injury. Therefore, keeping the following minimum
distances from these HF communication devices is recommended:
• Mobile phone GSM 850/GSM 900: 0.99m
• Mobile phone GSM 1800/GSM 1900/UMTS: 0.7m
• DECT cordless phones incl. base station: 0.35m
• WiFi (routers, access points,...): 0.22m
• Bluetooth devices (third-party products not approved by Ottobock): 0.22m
