8.0 Service Period

Servicing:

If you have any questions or require any help, please
contact your authorized Sunrise Medical dealer, who will
be pleased to advise you with regards to servicing and
repairs.
Depending on how much you have used your add-on
bike, we recommend that you take it to your dealer at
least every 6 months, to have your add-on bike inspected
by trained personnel.

9.0 Tyre Maintenance

The add-on bike is equipped with a 20" drive wheel.
Make sure that they are always at the recom¬mended
tyre pressure, as this will significantly affect the driving
characteristics. If the tyre pressure is too low, movement
and manoeuvrability is made more difficult due to the
increased rolling resistance and this also increases the
amount of effort required.
The optimum tyre pressure (usually 3-4 bar) is indicated
on each tyre.

Fitting and repairing tyres:

Before fitting a new inner tube:
• Inspect the base of the rim and he tyre inner wall for
foreign bodies and if necessary clean thoroughly
• Check the condition of the rim tape, particularly at the
valve hole. Only well fitting, strong rim tape offers long-
term protection against inner tube damage through burrs
and sharp spoke heads.

Inflation:

Before inflation check all round on both sides, to make
sure that the inner tube is not trapped between the tyre
bead and the rim. Push the valve back gently and pull it
back out, so that the inner tube achieves an optimum
position around the valve.
WARNING!
After fitting, check the tyre pressure. It is essential that
you maintain regulation tyre pressure and keep the tyres
in perfect condition, in order to ensure your personal
safety and keep your add-on bike properly.

10.0 Maitenance Brakes

Maintaining the Brakes:

Check regularly the condition of the brake pads and the
brake disc. After 8000- 10.000km the brake cables
should be replaced completely. The brake pads need to
be replaced if the thickness measured at the thinnest
point is 2,5 mm.

11.0 Cleaning/Hygene

• The add-on bike should be cleaned regularly and after
each bigger journey with commercially available,
household cleaning agents.
• If needed only use a little water.
• Handles, display and battery may only be cleaned by
wiping with a damp (not wet) cloth.
• The drive wheel can be cleaned with a soft sponge or
a soft brush.
• The docking pins at the wheelchair and the docking
system can be cleaned with water, a soft sponge or a
soft brush (recommended after each ride).
• After cleaning please use a penetrating oil (e.g.
Ballisto WD 40, Caramba...) to lubricate the moving
parts of the docking.
CAUTION!
• Never use steam or high pressure to clean the
product.
• Never use any abrasive cleaning agents or aggressive,
acidic cleaners.
• Make sure that water will not get into contact with the
electrical connectors.

Hygiene when being reused:

When the add-on bike is to be reused, it should be
prepared carefully, and be wiped and treated with spray
disinfectant on all surfaces which could come into contact
with the user. If you need to do this quickly, you must use
a liquid, alcohol based disinfectant suitable for medical
products and devices. Please pay attention to the
manufacturer's instructions of the disinfectant you are
using.
