2.5 OPERATING SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
• Before each use, the user must ensure that the LIGHTCHAIR II is in a safe condition
and in accordance with the instructions, including the security functions.
• The operating and safety condition of the LIGHTCHAIR II must be checked at least
once a year by an approved specialist.
• If errors, faults or other hazards are detected which might cause personal injury, the
LIGHTCHAIR II must be taken out of service immediately.
• The LIGHTCHAIR II works only at temperatures between -10 ° C and+ 35 ° C. During
operation, the LIGHTCHAIR II must not be exposed to temperatures outside the
range of those indicated above.
• The maximum load supported by the LIGHTCHAIR II is 120 Kg. This weight must not
be exceeded
• Before each use, a visual check must be carried out to verify that the tyre pressure is
correct (see tyre inscriptions).
• When traveling on public roads, you must respect the road code.
• The power button should be ‘off ’ when making transfers.
• Small obstacles must be crossed at a moderate pace (3 km / h) and preferably in a
perpendicular fashion.
• Maneuvers may only be carried out at reduced speed.
• LIGHTCHAIR II may generate electromagnetic interference which may disrupt the
proper functioning of other devices. It is therefore better to turn it off while not in use.
• In regard to tyres, please note the following:
• - The tyres of the LIGHTCHAIR II contain chemical substances which may react with
other chemicals (e.g. cleaning chemicals or acid).
• - Direct exposure to sunlight (UV) accelerates tyre aging.This results in a hardening on
the side of the tyre which cracks at the edges.
• -Regardless of their wear, the tyres must be changed every 2 years.
• -Prolonged non-use or significant heat on the tyres (if the LIGHTCHAIR II is near a
heater or exposed to direct sunlight through a window) may deform them permanently
. Ensure, therefore, to maintain a sufficient distance from heat sources.
• The LIGHTCHAIR II can be driven on inclinations and descents of 9°, you must not
attempt steeper ascents or descents.
• While driving downhill, for security reasons, speed should be reduced.
Charging the batteries can produce explosive gases. Which is why it is necessary to take
the following safety measures while charging:
- Switch off the LIGHTCHAIR II
- Ensure the room is ventilated
- It is forbidden to smoke or to start a fire. It is imperative to avoid sparks.
