STORAGE
Your power chair should be stored in a dry place, free from temperature extremes. When storing, disconnect the
batteries from the power chair. See VIII. Batteries and Charging.
WARNING! If you fail to store the unit properly, the frame can rust and the electronics can
be damaged.
CLEANING PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION! Never hose off your power chair or place it in direct contact with water. Your
power chair has a painted, ABS plastic body shroud that allows it to be easily wiped clean
with a damp cloth.
CAUTION! Never use any chemicals to clean a vinyl seat, as they may cause the seat to
become slippery or dry out and crack. Use soapy water and dry the seat thoroughly.
Your power chair, like most electrical equipment, is susceptible to damage from the elements. Avoid damp areas of
any kind.
