CARE
Your electric wheelchair requires regular care to keep it in a pleasant condition. To do this, note the
following:
L
Steam or high-pressure cleaning is forbidden !
!
COVERS
Clean the covers with hot water. You can remove stubborn dirt by washing with a mild commercial
detergent. Stains can be removed by using a sponge or a soft brush.

Do not use strong cleaning liquids like solvents, nor use hard brushes.
L
We shall decline all liability for damage caused by the use of improper cleaning agents.
L
Take care that you do not soak the covers.
!
PLASTIC PARTS
Clean all plastic parts of your wheelchair with commercial plastic cleaners. Read the specific product
information and only use soft sponges or cloths.
!
SURFACE LAYERS
The high quality of the surface layer guarantees optimal protection against corrosion. If the outside of
the frame has been damaged by scratches or otherwise, you can protect the area by applying varnish
obtainable from your specialist dealer.
!
ELECTRONICS CASING
Only wipe the steering unit with a cloth moistened by a few drops of a commercial domestic cleaner.
Do not use any abrasives or sharp-edged polishing equipment like a metal scrubber or brush, since
these can scratch the surface of the steering unit and destroy its water repelling property.
L
Regularly check the plug connectors for corrosion or damage, since it could affect the
efficiency of the electronics.
L
Before any maintenance work, disconnect the batteries to prevent any unwanted current flow.
L
The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage caused by poor maintenance.
