INFORMATION
Only provide the Instructions for Use (User) to the user.

Seating shells/seat cushions are not included in the scope of delivery and must be ordered separately.

4.2 Options

The functionality and operation of the options are described in more detail in the instructions for use (user).

4.3 Storage

The wheelchair must be stored in a dry place.
For transportation and storage, an ambient temperature between -10 °C and +40 °C must be maintained.
During extended storage, the knee lever wheel lock on wheelchairs with PU tyres must be released since tyre
deformation may otherwise result.
Note regarding the tyres
• Tires contain chemical substances that can react with other chemical substances (such as cleaning agents,
acids, etc.).
• Direct exposure to sunlight or UV radiation causes the tyres to age more quickly. As a result, the tread surface
hardens and corner pieces break out of the tread.
• Avoid unnecessary parking outdoors. The tyres should be replaced every 2 years regardless of wear and tear.
