turer usage instructions which were included in

25.2 Service schedules
There is some
maintenance work or checks
which should be carried out by the user
themselves
at regular intervals (approximately
every 4 weeks depending on the frequency of
use):
Check the tyres for damage, foreign bodies
and any cracks that form.
Check the cable housings are seated cor-
rectly and tightly in the cable holders.
Cables and lines should be checked for
kinks and crushing.
Check the brake pads.
Check the plug contacts of the drive sys-
tem; if required clean with a soft, dry brush
and re-grease (using petroleum jelly).
Check the tyre pressure and correct if
needed (the tyre pressure should always
be as printed on the tyre covers).
If you should discover any problems dur-
ing these checks, please immediately contact
your rehabilitation specialist dealer or
PRO ACTIV. Service and repair work on the
product may only be carried out by your reha-
bilitation specialist dealer or PRO ACTIV.
In addition to these maintenance tasks/checks
by the user, PRO ACTIV has prescribed
maintenance tasks to be carried out by the
rehabilitation specialist dealer or
PRO ACTIV
for safe operation of the product
and to minimise the risk to the user or third-
parties.
The initial inspection is performed after running
200 kilometres or 5 months after delivery
(whichever comes first). The maintenance
schedule can be found in the inspection lists in
chapter 33.
Subsequent inspections are then always per-
formed after 1,000 kilometres running or a
period of 1 year after the last inspection
(whichever comes first). The maintenance
schedule can be found in the inspection lists in
chapter 33.
After extreme stresses, such as during holi-
days where the product was exposed to sand,
sea water or snow, an additional deep clean
and inspection by your rehabilitation specialist
dealer is recommended.
To maintain the warranty validity, the perfor-
mance of the maintenance tasks must be doc-
umented. Any faults identified during mainte-
nance work must be rectified and documented
as such before further use of the product.
Even if your product does not show any signs
of wear, damage or malfunctions, the regular
safety-related checks on your product must be
carried out in accordance with the mainte-
nance schedule.
