9.3. Tyres
In order to ensure optimum performance of your wheelchair, it is very important
to keep its tyres at the right pressure. The correct pressure can also be found on
the side of the tyres.

Warning
Never exceed the maximum tyre pressure.
If tyres are too soft, the handling of the wheelchair will be reduced. Propelling
the wheelchair will also require more energy, resulting in a greater drain on the
batteries. Driving with soft tyres also unnecessarily increases tyre wear.
Warning
SERVICE for comprehensive details relating to tyre repairs (qualified specialists
only). Before starting any repair work on the tyres, first fully deflate them.
