Using extension hold
Gently flick the knee into extension and pull back slightly.
The knee will remain in an extended position up to
5 seconds, or until you put
weight onto it.
Caring for the Rheo Knee
Clean the knee with a damp cloth and mild soap or
isopropyl alcohol when needed. Dry the product with
a lintfree cloth and allow it to dry fully.
6Warnings
AAuditory/vibratory Warnings
When the power reaches critical levels,
auditory and/or vibratory warnings alert
the user.
If the device loses power, the knee loses
its ability to provide stance support. In
such cases it is recommended to manually engage the
integrated extension lock to lock the knee in full
extension.
The Rheo Knee®is suitable for use in any environment
except where immersion in water or any other fluid is
possible, or where exposure to highly electrical and/or
magnetic fields can occur (e.g. CT and MRI scanners).
BBattery warnings
When battery is low a repeating warning pulse will appear: A short
sound repeats every 15 seconds and orange light flashes on the
interface panel. At this point the device should be recharged.
How much time is left on the battery depends on activity
(approximately 30 minutes
of walking on level ground or
5 minutes of stair descent).
When battery is critically low,
a buzzing, vibrating and a
flashing red light will signal
an imminent shut down
(after 5 seconds).

Weatherproof
The Rheo Knee is weatherproof but is
not designed to be exposed to a large
amount of water or other fluids, such
as submersion.
The device is not resistant to corrosion and should
therefore not come into contact with salt or chlorinated
water. If it does come into contact these, sand or dust,
ensure you clean the knee with a damp cloth and allow
it to dry fully before use.
How to use
the manual

fully straightened
