23.3 Securing the product in a car
(without a person)
To reduce the weight when loading, the
rechargeable batteries can be removed from
the product and stored separately. The product
and all associated components must be
secured during transport so that they are not
damaged (e.g., by falling over) and do not
become a hazard to persons or other products.
Before transport, check with your car dealer
about the safe securing using the existing fitted
lashing rings or other securing devices.
Suitable brackets are mostly available in the
car and are described in the operating manual
of the vehicle.
When the product is in the transport vehicle,
you or the person accompanying you should
proceed as follows:
1. Operate the parking brake.
2. Secure and safely stow any components
from the product which have been
previously removed.
3. Objects that are installed to the product,
but do not belong to the product, must be
removed and securely stowed.
4. Secure the product with lashing straps. To
do this, use the existing securing devices
in the car. After securing, the product may
not roll, slip or tip over to the side any
more.
The lashing straps used to secure the
product in the transport vehicle may only be
fitted to the components of the car provided for
that purpose and on the steering column and
handlebar of the product.
Do not transport the product on the front
passenger seat. The product could slip and
impede the driver.
When loading and securing, make sure
that the cables and lines do not get tangled,
become kinked or otherwise damaged. The
product may not be used with damaged cables
and/or lines.
23.4 Transport in aircrafts
The lithium rechargeable batteries used are
classified as hazardous goods for transport by
air. It is not permitted to claim that there is a
right to transport them by air. The decision
about the transport is the sole responsibility of
the airline and this should be discussed in
advance of the flight or the booking.
24 Malfunctions
In the event of any malfunctions which cannot
be solved by yourself based on the operating
instructions included in the scope of delivery,
please contact your rehabilitation specialist
retailer or PRO ACTIV directly.
Malfunctions must be solved before any
further use or, if they occur during the journey,
this must be interrupted immediately.
25 Cleaning and care
Regular cleaning of the product is prescribed
to prevent the components becoming
clogged
up due to dirt. In particular, the product should
be carefully cleaned after every major use, e.g.
summer or winter holidays.
To avoid corrosion and therefore malfunctions
or breakages of components, the product may
not be exposed to any aggressive
environmental influences. If this cannot be
avoided, the product should be cleaned
immediately after such use and moving parts
need to be greased. Regular cleaning prevents
corrosion and increased wear.
In case the product becomes wet when using,
please dry it after use.
Clean your product with water, solvent or
neutral cleaning agents. Do not use any
abrasive cleaning agents or aggressive, acidic
cleaners, to prevent scratching or fading of the
coating or the anodised parts.
Drive and grip units, as well as the
rechargeable batteries, may only be cleaned
by rubbing off with a damp (not wet) cloth.
