Take note of the battery charge level before and while driving. Always recharge the batteries when
possible. The wheelchair’s standard charging equipment will not overcharge the batteries.
The wheelchair operations may be disturbed in electromagnetic fields, which may be emitted by e.g.
mobile phones or other similarly emitting equipment. The wheelchair itself can disturb equipment
based on electromagnetic fields, such as shop alarm systems.
Don’t leave the wheelchair under the straight sun light. Metal parts and surfaces of the wheelchair
for example the seat and the cushions of the armrests might heat easily. Also avoid leaving the
wheelchair under high freeze.
After driving under moisture circumstances, take care of drying the wheelchair for example by
storing it in a warm space. Do not leave the wheelchair outside or in cold and moisture spaces. Not
following these instructions might damage the wheelchair.
SAFE USE AND SERVICE
The wheelchair’s driving controller has factory settings, which are suitable for most users. It is
possible to change some of these settings. Programming should only be performed by healthcare
professionals with adequate knowledge of the controller system. Incorrect programming can create
dangerous driving properties or damage the controller system.
The reliability of the wheelchair and the control system is improved, if you keep exposure to
extreme conditions to a minimum.
Damaged wheelchair cables create a safety risk.
Check the condition of the tyres regularly. It is important for the steering properties and grip abilities
to have a correct tyre pressure. Measuring the tyre pressure is explained in section “Wheelchair
servicing”.
Use the locking key to prevent illicit use of the wheelchair. Someone other than the owner using the
wheelchair is a safety risk.
Always attach the wheelchair to the car’s body part during transport. Sitting in the wheelchair during
transportation is absolutely forbidden without the use of the correct 3 point seatbelt attached fitted
in the vehicle.
Unauthorized repairs and modifications are forbidden. The user may perform the servicing
operations referred to in section “wheelchair servicing”. When the wheelchair is being serviced or
adjusted, the driving controller must be switched off.
Using the other than gel batteries is forbidden due to the danger of damaging the wheelchair’s
electric parts.
Handling tools in close proximity to the batteries may cause short circuit. Handling an open flame is
forbidden because of the danger of major serious damage. The battery casing is not intended to be
used as a storage container. The cables in the battery naves should not disconnect on one’s own. In
the problem situation, please contact the service.
