6. Maintenance instructions for the
user
6.1. Cleaning and disinfection
Cleaning
Make sure that the foldable power wheelchair is switched off before
you start cleaning.
•
The frame parts and casings can be wiped with a damp cloth.
If there is heavy contamination, you can use a mild household
cleaner.
•
The wheels can be cleaned with a damp brush with plastic bristles
(do not use a wire brush!)
•
You can clean dust and minor contamination from your seat,
backrest and armrests with a damp cloth. Do not use any aggressive
cleaners as these could damage the surface of the material. The
upholstery can be washed with
40 °C warm water.
•
Make sure that electrical or electronic components do not come
into contact with water!
Disinfection
Before disinfection clean the foldable power wheelchair thoroughly in
accordance with the instructions:
•
Use a household disinfectant for wiping.
•
Spray the upholstery/pads and handles as appropriate.
•
Leave the cleaner to work in accordance with the manufacturer’s
specifications, before you wipe it off.
•
When doing this, make sure that the electrics and electronics do not
come into contact with liquid.
Do not use high-pressure or steam cleaners.
6.2. Checks before driving
6.2.1. Checking the brakes
Before setting off each time, check that the brakes work properly.
•
Start up carefully and then release the joystick. The foldable power
wheelchair must come to a halt as usual.
•
When stationary, the electromechanical brake must be locked
in place with an audible click. Notify your dealer of defects
immediately and discontinue use of the foldable power wheelchair!
•
The motor brake is working properly if you cannot push the foldable
power wheelchair when it is switched off. However if it is possible
to do this, the electromagnetic brake is defective. In this case, you
must stop using the foldable power wheelchair. Contact your dealer
immediately.
6.2.2. Checking the horn
Before setting off each time, check that the horn works properly.
•
If, after pressing the appropriate button on the control panel, there
is no reaction from the unit which has just been tested, notify your
dealer immediately and take the foldable power wheelchair out of
use.
6.2.3. Checking the tyres
The tyres will wear over time.
•
Therefore check they are intact before setting off each time.
•
Check the
tread depth of the tyres. It should be at least 1 mm. The
air pressure of the drive wheels should be 2.7 bar.
Contact your dealer if the tyres are defective or worn.
