Operating instructions LITTY 4you

The waist belt which may be fitted is not
designed as a safety belt in a motor vehicle
and may not be used for this purpose.
To reduce the weight, individual compo-
nents, such as the caster wheel forks with
caster wheels and the drive wheels can be
removed for loading and stored separately.
Furthermore, if the product has been fitted with
push handles and anti-tippers, these can also
be removed. The product and all associated
components must be secured during transport
so that they are not damaged (e.g. by falling
over) and do not become a hazard to persons
or other products.
If the wheelchair user needs to be trans-
ported over an obstacle, such as a step, and if
there are suitable facilities such as a ramp or a
lift available, then these should be used. If
such facilities are not available, then the ob-
stacle is to be overcome by being carried by
two helpers. When carrying the wheelchair, it
may not
be lifted by the side sections, the drive
wheels, the pushing handles or the footrests.
We recommend holding the product by the
lower frame tubes of the main frame and hold-
ing the back cross bar.
24 Malfunctions
In the event of any malfunctions which cannot
be solved by yourself based on the operating
instructions included in the scope of delivery,
please contact your specialist retailer or PRO
ACTIV directly.
Malfunctions must be solved before any
further use or, if they occur during the journey,
this must be interrupted immediately.
25 Cleaning and care
Clean and grease the quick-release axles
on the drive and caster wheels as well as all
the ball bearings at regular intervals to ensure
everything works reliably.
Regular cleaning of the product is prescribed
to prevent the components becoming clogged
up due to dirt. In particular, the product should
be carefully cleaned after every major use, e.g.
summer or winter holidays.
Clean your wheelchair with water, solvent
or neutral cleaning agents. Do not use any
abrasive cleaning agents or aggressive, acidic
cleaners, to prevent scratching or fading of the
coating or the anodised parts.
The product must not be cleaned using
steam or high pressure.
To avoid corrosion and therefore malfunctions
or breakages of components, the product may
not be exposed to any aggressive environ-
mental influences. If this cannot be avoided,
the wheelchair should be cleaned immediately
after such use and moving parts need to be
greased. Regular cleaning prevents corrosion
and increased wear.
If you need care products for your product,
please contact PRO ACTIV.
