7. Maintenance Tips for Users

7.1. Cleaning and Disinfection

Cleaning
Make sure that the electric wheelchair is switched off before you start
cleaning.
• The frame parts and casings can be wiped with a damp cloth.
If there is heavy contamination, you can use a mild household
cleaner.
• The wheels can be cleaned with a damp brush with plastic bristles
(do not use a wire brush!).
• You can clean dust and minor contamination from your seat,
backrest and armrests with a damp cloth. Do not use any aggressive
cleaners as these could damage the surface of the material. The
upholstery can be washed with 40 °C warm water.
• Make sure that electrical or electronic components do not come
into contact with water!

in accordance with the instructions:

• Spray the upholstery/pads and handles as appropriate.
• Leave the cleaner to work in accordance with the manufacturer's
specifications, before you wipe it off.
