6. MAINTENANCE

6.7 Cleaning

Cleaning your wheelchair regularly will keep it in good working condition.

regularly. Do not use abrasive cleaners as they can damage the varnish. Do not 

use steam or high-pressure cleaners.

abrasive waxes or spray silicone.

 Always dry the wheelchair after cleaning or whenever it gets wet.
