3.3 Cleaning, Recommendations and Storage
3.3.1 Paint :
Cleaning your wheelchair with mild soap or a diluted neutral desinfectant
(2 ounces for 8 liters of water) is recommended at least once a month.
To protect the paint, we suggest that you put a coat of non-abrasive car
wax every 3 months.
3.3.2 Recommendations :
Remove any filth (organic and / or biological) immediately.
Do not flush with water (the tubing and others parts could corrode from
the inside). If so, dry as soon as possible.
You can dry clean your wheelchair with the proper equipment.
If the user is contagious, disinfect the seat, the armrests, the backrests and
every other surface daily with a disinfectant. Do not rinse or wipe,
just let it dry.
3.3.3 Storage :
Store your chair in a clean, dry area.
If stored for more than 3 months, have your chair inspected by an
authorized dealer before use.
Tires
Ensure your wheelchair has the proper tire pressure before using it.
Proper pressure extends the life of your tires and facilitates its use. The
recommended tire pressure is listed on the tire.
•
Do not overinflate the tires.
•
Do not use your wheelchair if the tires are under or over-inflated
•
Low air pressure may make the wheel lock slip and allow the wheel to
turn unexpectedly.
•
Over-inflated tires may burst.
Failure to follow these suggestions may result in serious bodily injury to
the user and damage to the wheelchair.
