Set up :
A fitting is mandatory for a proper fit and a good understanding of the installation. The initial fitting will be carried out by a healthcare professional and subsequently by the user or someone close to them according to the same protocol.

1. For joint adjustment: This must be done by a healthcare professional before fitting the orthosis. Slide the joint cover downwards and remove it. Place the red angulation pins (extension and flexion) according to the range or blocking recommended by the prescriber. See example of adjustment with the red pins. Close the cover by sliding it upwards.
2. To put on the orthosis: Open the orthosis completely at the front. Place the two gray patellar hemi-rings on either side of the kneecap. Close the bottom and then the top using the hook-and-loop system. Place the silicone pad below the kneecap on the tibial ridge by closing the straps. Tighten the straps to obtain a firm but comfortable fit.

Maintenance and conservation:
• Keep the orthosis away from excessive heat sources.
• Hand wash in warm soapy water (maximum 40°C); rinse thoroughly; wring gently; do not bleach; dry flat, do not tumble dry; do not iron; do not dry clean.
• Dispose of the device and its packaging in accordance with local or national environmental regulations.
