Storage conditions
• Maintain an ambient temperature between
-15 °C and +40 °C (5 °F and +104 °F)
and relative humidity
between
45 % and 85 %
.
• Store the power wheelchair in a dry, enclosed room with sufficient air circulation and protection from external
influences.
• Protect the wheels against ground frost, e.g. by relieving them completely through assembly blocks or wooden
boards.
• Maintain sufficient clearance from sources of heat. If the product is parked for an extended period of time or
the tyres overheat (e.g. in the vicinity of radiators or in case of exposure to strong sunlight behind glass), the
tyres may become permanently deformed.
• Fill pneumatic tyres with slight overpressure.
• Rotate the wheels weekly to prevent flat tyres from extended standing.
• For extended storage, store the power wheelchair so the wheels are not in contact with the ground.
Note regarding the tyres
• If the power wheelchair is not moved for several days, permanent colour changes may occur where the wheel­
chair comes into contact with the surface it is standing on. Therefore a suitable mat should be used when park­
ing it for extended periods of time.
• Tyres contain chemical substances that can react with other chemical substances (such as cleaning agents,
acids, etc.).
• Black tyres contain soot particles. They may leave black marks where they come into contact with the ground.
Therefore the manufacturer recommends grey tyres if the wheelchair is primarily used indoors.
• Avoid unnecessary parking outdoors. Direct exposure to sunlight/UV radiation causes the tyres to age more
quickly. As a result, the tread surface hardens and corner pieces break out of the tread.
• The tyres must be changed when the tread is less than
1 mm (0.04")
to ensure safe driving behaviour.
• The tyres should be replaced every
2 years
regardless of wear and tear.
• When power wheelchairs with PU tyres are parked for long periods, the tyres may become deformed (flat
spots). This deformation will go away on its own over time while driving.
