WARNING!
Risk of Injury or Damage
Connector pins on the cables connected to the power module can still be live even when the system is off. Human contact
or other materials may cause an electrical short. To prevent injury or damage due to electrical shorts:
-Cables with live pins should be connected, restrained or covered (with non-conductive materials) so they are not exposed
to human contact or materials that could cause electrical shorts.
-When cables with live pins have to be disconnected, (for example, when removing the bus cable from the remote for
safety reasons) make sure to restrain or cover the pins (with non-conductive materials).
DANGER!
Risk of Death, Serious Injury, or Damage
Corroded electrical components due to water, liquid exposure, or incontinent users can result in death,
serious injury, or damage.
-Minimize exposure of electrical components to water and/or liquids. Electrical components damaged by corrosion MUST
be replaced immediately.
-Wheelchairs that are used by incontinent users and/or are frequently exposed to water/liquids may require replacement
of electrical components more frequently.
DANGER!
Risk of Death, Serious Injury, or Damage

As a manufacturer of wheelchairs, Invacare endeavors to supply a wide variety of wheelchairs to meet many needs of the
end user. However, final selection of the type of wheelchair to be used by an individual rests solely with the user and
his/her healthcare professional capable of making such a selection. Invacare recommends working with a qualified rehab
technology provider, such as an ATP, (Assistive Technology Professional).
