In order not to damage the knee, do not use talcum powder, grease or a
silicon spray to eliminate possible rubbing noise. Any use of these
products may damage the mechanical parts, which may lead to function
defects and risk of falling for the patient.
The use of talcum powder, grease or silicon spray will render all claims
against PROTEOR null and void.
It is strictly forbidden to tighten or loose any screw of this knee except for the
4 adjustment screws R, F and S (Fig.3, 4 and 5) that can be used by the
prosthetist only.
The warranty is not applicable to damages due to improper use, inadequate
alignment, use in a very dusty environment and without adapted protection,
or any inappropriate use.
There is a risk of having a finger caught or clothing pinched in the knee. To
avoid any risk of injury caused by the moving joint, take care that no one puts
his finger near or inside the mechanism.
It should be avoided to expose the knee in environments that can cause
corrosion of metal parts (fresh water, sea water, chlorinated water, acids,
etc.)
In case of fall, shock or abnormal behaviour of the prosthesis, the knee
should be checked by the prosthetist.
The temperature range for knee use is from -10°C to +40°C (from 14°F to
