Engaging the Flexion Lock
To engage exion lock, in any Activity Mode, double click the
mode button to engage the exion lock. The button lights up
with a solid white light to indicate that the Flexion Lock is
engaged. When the lock is engaged, the knee can straighten
but it cannot bend any further than the current angle. If the
knee is straightened to a more upright position, the lock
re-engages at the new angle. The knee will remain locked at
this position until the knee is straightened or the exion lock
is disengaged. The solid white light remains on as long as the
Flexion Lock is engaged.
Note: When the Flexion Lock is engaged and the knee is
unweighted, it will be locked in both exion and extension.
Disengaging the Flexion Lock
With the lock engaged, double click the mode button to
disengage the Flexion Lock. The solid white light now turns
o, indicating that the Flexion Lock has disengaged. The knee
returns to the currently selected Activity, i.e. Walking.
Stance Lock
The Quattro features a Stance Lock for stability on a exed
knee. When the user stops the thigh at a exion angle and
weights the knee, it will automatically lock further exion.
The lock will automatically disengage when the thigh moves
in an extension moment or the knee is unweighted.
Note: Stance Lock is available from 0-70° of exion.

able resistance settings. Use either the slider bars or the [-]
and [+] buttons to adjust the knee resistances. Any chang-
es you make in the app are instantaneously transferred to

Sitting Mode
With Sitting Mode turned on (default), when the knee is
unweighted and the thigh reaches a 90 degree angle or
greater, the knee exes without resistance. With Sitting
Mode o, the knee will continue to have hydraulic resis-
tance to exion independent of thigh exion angle. To turn
on/o select “Tools” tab in the Freedom Innovations app.
Note: If Sitting mode is turned o, it will also disable Cycle
Mode and Obstacle Assist.
Cycling Mode
In Cycling Mode, the Knee will enter in low resistance when
the user’s thigh is near the horizontal plane (this position
occurs when getting on the bike or during normal pedal-
ing). The Knee will remain in low resistance until the user
puts weight on the unit in full extension (triggering the
QUATTRO to return to normal walking mode).
Note: If Sitting mode is turned o, it will also disable Cycle
Mode.
Golf Mode
Golf Mode allows you to limit the amount your knee exes
while playing golf. After selecting golf mode in the Free-
dom app as the alternate mode, navigate to the adjust-
ment screen. On this screen you will have 3 choices for dif-
ferent degrees of exion that will be allowed. Each of these
can be customized by pressing the “+” or “-“. This allows
you to have 3 custom settings for the amount of exion
needed for a particular golf swing.
