Safety Instructions
Maintenance and Service
Carry out only the service and maintenance which are stated in this Owner’s
Manual. All other service and maintenance must be performed by a qualified
service technician authorized by Permobil to perform such service on Permobil
products
During all work on the electrical system of the wheelchair, the connection to the
negative pole of the battery must always be removed. To avoid the risk of elec-
tric shock, use extreme caution when using metal objects while working on the
batteries. Short-circuiting can easily cause an explosion. Never perform ser-
vice on the wheelchair without using protective gloves and goggles. Failure to
do so can lead to personal injury.
Do not use parts or accessories not authorized by Permobil. Use of un-
approved ”aftermarket” accessories and parts may cause changes in the
wheelchair, which may make the wheelchair unstable or uncontrollable. Such
use may also void the warranty on the wheelchair.
Connecting any unapproved electrical or electronic devices to the wheelchair’s
electrical system can cause damage to the chair and cause the chair to
become uncontrollable or drive erratically. Such use may also void the warranty.
The wheelchair and seat is heavy and contains many moving parts, which
means that the risk of being caught between them is always present.
