The wheelchair must be cleaned and disinfected, and must be checked for damage and
approved by the specialist retailer.
Checking the wheelchair by the user
Prior to each journey, check
•
that the tyres are not damaged and that the inflation pressure is adequate (with
optional pneumatic tyres). Regularly check the tyre tread depth once per month.
This should be at least 1 mm. Defective or worn tyres must be replaced.
•
the functional capability of the brake system. It should be impossible to push the
wheelchair when the brake is actuated. It should be easy to push the wheelchair
when the brake is released. If you notice unusual braking behaviour, immediately
notify your specialist retailer and cease using the wheelchair.
•
the functional capability of the passive illumination system. Your wheelchair is
equipped with reflectors. The reflectors must be visible to other road users and
should not be soiled or otherwise covered.
•
that the seat and backrest upholstery is undamaged and clean. If it is soiled, it can
be cleaned in accordance with the cleaning instructions. If it is damaged, contact
your specialist retailer.
•
that all moving parts run smoothly and function with little noise. Squeaking noises
indicate damage and should be checked by the specialist retailer.
•
that all threaded and riveted connections are undamaged.

brought to a specialist retailer for repair.
The specialist retailer will be provided with the information and documents
required for repair and maintenance on request.
