Avoid physical contact with the wheelchair’s motors at all times. Motors are
continuously in motion during use and can reach high temperatures. After use, the
motors will cool down slowly. Physical contact could cause burns.
•
If you do not use the wheelchair, ensure that it is not exposed to direct sunlight for
lengthy periods of time. Certain parts of the wheelchair, such as the seat, the back
and the armrests can become hot if they have been exposed to full sunlight for too
long. This may cause burns or allergic reactions to the skin.
