  DO make sure both brakes are applied when the chair is not being pushed or 

used. 

  DO take care when climbing curbs or turning on slopes.                                               

  DO avoid steep or uneven surfaces that may cause the chair to tip over. 

  DO avoid soft surfaces because the casters may become bogged down. 

  DO travel smoothly in all conditions. 

  DO look well ahead to anticipate hazards such as furniture, doors, potholes, etc. 

  DO make sure that both feet are safely on the footrests and that clothing is safely 

tucked out of the way so that it cannot get caught in the wheels. 

  DO take care when traveling up or down or across inclines. 

  DO keep both hands on the push handles to control the chair, if you are the 

attendant. 

  DO pay attention to keep the chair balanced.

during and after the warranty period.

  DO equip with "ankle supports" for disabled people. 

  DO clean both hands after oiling the wheelchair. 

  DO tighten the screws of headrest tubes. 

  DO NOT overload the chair in any circumstance. 

  DO NOT hang anything heavy on the back of the chair that could cause the chair 

to become unstable, particularly when negotiating inclines. 

  DO NOT allow more than one user at a time. 

  DO NOT use with an unconscious patient. 

  DO NOT use other transport to pull the wheelchair. 

  DO NOT do "wheelies", as you my fall or tip over backwards and suffer a severe 

injury. 

  DO NOT sit in a wheelchair within a moving vehicle unless it has affixed the 

labels of hook mark.

      Lifting by means of any removable (detachable) parts of the wheelchair may 

result in injury to the user and/or assistant or damage to the wheelchair. 

  DO NOT use the wheelchair when the back is folded. This alters the centre of 

gravity and may cause the wheelchair to tip backwards. The back should only be 
folded for storage or transport of the wheelchair. 

  DO NOT hang anything on the back joint that could cause the backrest folding 

suddenly and may cause injury.
