Cleaning and maintenance
NOTE:
Do not clean the wheelchair with a high-pressure cleaner as this can cause short circuiting.
10.1
Protective cover/incontinence cover
It is recommended that protective covers are used on the seat and armrests. Protective-
and incontinence covers are tailored to fit the seat cushion. They are fixed to the seat by
stretching the fabric a little to get the cover in the right position over the cushion. On some
seat cushions there are Velcro strips on the sides of the seat cushion and on the inside of
the covers, but generally these are not necessary to hold the cover in the correct position.
10.2
Washing instructions for upholstery
Washing and ironing the upholstery is not possible as it damages the inflammable coating.
For cleaning of dry stains just brush with a smooth brush, for fluid staining, absorb the
staining with an absorptive cloth and avoid contact with any liquids.
Using any liquids on the upholstery can ruin the inflammable coating of the fabric.
10.3
Maintaining the wheels
The standard tyres are made of a solid compound and cannot be punctured, nor do they
need to be checked for air pressure.
