Driving on public highways

Observe the valid regulations for public traf-
fic of your country and if necessary ask your 
specialist dealer for required accessories.
Your multifunction and bearing wheelchair 
can optionally be fit with lighting equip-
ment. The lighting equipment consists of:

 

– Reflectors on the back support

 

– Reflectors on the drive wheels.

With limited visibility and especially in the 
dark we recommend to mount active light-
ing equipment and to turn it on in order to 
see better and be seen.

 

When participating in public traffic the 
user is responsible or the functional- 
and operationally safe condition of the 
multifunction and bearing wheelchair.

 

The valid traffic regulations must be ob-
served and abided when participating 
in public traffic.

 

Wear light-coloured and conspicuous 
clothing when driving in darkness.

 

When driving in the dark avoid using 
the road or bicycle lanes.

 

Observe that the lighting equipment is 
not covered by clothes or any other ob-
jects attached to the multifunction and 
bearing wheelchair.

 

In case of physical handicaps, such as 
blindness the use of the multifunction 
and bearing wheelchair is only permit-
ted with an accompanying person.

CLEANING

The plastic panelling is attacked through 
non-ionic tensides as well as solvents and 
especially alcohol.

The cushions and covers are normally fit 
with care instructions (instruction for care). 

 

For this observe chapter 

Meaning of the 

symbols on the washing instruction

 on 

page 43.

In all other cases the following information 
is true:

 

Clean the upholstery with warm water 
and hand washing liquid.

 

Remove spots with a sponge or a soft 
brush.

 

Wash off persistent dirt with commer-
cial fine detergent.

 

Do not soak! Do not machine wash!

Follow-up with clean water and allow to dry.
The chassis, the lighting equipment and 
wheels can be cleaned damp with a mild 
detergent. Afterwards dry off well.

 

Check the chassis for corrosion damag-
es as well as other damages.

 

Only clean the plastic parts with warm 
water and neutral detergent or soft 
soap.

Further information to cleaning can be 
found in the <
