Service life
We estimate that Rea® Assist has a service life span of 5 years. It is diffi cult to state the exact
length of the service life of our products, and the length stated is an estimated average life span
based on normal use. The life span may be considerably longer if the wheelchair is used to a
limited extent, and if it is used with care, maintained and handled properly. The life span may be
shorter if the wheelchair is subjected to extreme use.
Accidents/Near-accidents
Please inform your Invacare sales company (phone number is on the back cover) of any acci-
dents/near-accidents that were caused by this wheelchair and that have led to/could have led to
personal injury. The relevant authority in your country must also be notifi ed.
Testing
Rea® Assist has been tested and approved by The Swedish Handicap Institute and is CE-marked
according to the Medical Device Directive.
