Warranty
BraunAbility products are extensively tested using BraunAbility
anchorage systems, and our full warranty normally only applies
to BraunAbility equipment when used with BraunAbility branded
anchorages or as instructed. BraunAbility have also participated in test
programs with other manufacturers anchorage products and will support
warranty on the BraunAbility products when used in conjunction with
such jointly tested systems. For further details on specific applications
please contact the Sales Office. In other situations, using BraunAbility
products, for which BraunAbility has not participated in a joint test
program, a limited BraunAbility warranty will apply.
Equipment storage and maintenance
•
Store the restraint safely in supplied bag, off the floor, to avoid
damage and ensure that it cannot become a projectile in an accident.
•
Regularly inspect the wheelchair restraint systems for damage, wear
or malfunction. If any problems are identified replace components
immediately.
•
When not in use, keep loose occupant webbing ends connected
to their corresponding buckle sleeves, etc, to prevent them from
becoming trip hazards and from flailing around when the vehicle is in
motion.
•
All webbing and components can be cleaned as necessary, but care
should be taken to prevent contamination of the webbings with
polishes, oils and chemicals, particularly battery acid.
•
To clean the straps use warm soapy water and a clean soft cloth. Rinse
with clear water and allow to air dry. To disinfect, use a mild spray
disinfectant and do not use products containing bleach.
Important:
when cleaning or disinfecting, do not immerse or flood buckles,
karabiner fittings or floor anchors in the disinfectant or water.
•
If the vehicle is involved in an accident when any restraints are
deployed, remove them from service and replace immediately. If in
doubt please contact BraunAbility.
