7 Maintenance
Note!
The power assist should be serviced by your
dealer once a year or, in the case of intensive
use, every six months.
All required maintenance that must be
performed by the user is described in this
section.
Repairs must be carried out by an authorized
person; please contact your dealer if a repair is
needed.
7.1 Maintenance plan
The lifespan of the power assist is very dependent
on its usage and maintenance.
• Charge the batteries daily
•
Ensure that the batteries are always fully
charged. Not using the batteries for an
extended period of time can damage them. Do
not use the power assist if the batteries are
almost run down and never if the batteries are
completely empty. This can seriously damage
the batteries and you may run the risk of
coming to an unintended standstill.
•
If the capacity of the batteries is continually
decreasing so that the wheelchair can only
be used for short trips, this means that the
batteries are reaching the end of their lifespan.
The batteries then need to be replaced.
•
Periodically check for low-bat warning of the
sensor box (see paragraph 8.1). Preventively
we advice to re-new the AA batteries every 6
months.
Warning!
Batteries contain acids. Damaged batteries are
a serious health hazard.
