9.5 Long-term storage

In case your mobility device is not used for a longer period
of time, you need to prepare it for storage to ensure a
longer life for your mobility device and batteries.
Storing mobility device and batteries
• We recommend to store the mobility device at a
temperature of 15° C, avoid hot and cold extremes
when storing to ensure a long service life of the product
and batteries.
• The components are tested and approved for greater
temperature ranges as detailed below:
– Allowable temperature range to store the mobility
device is -40° up to 65° C.
– Allowable temperature range to store batteries is
-25° up to 65° C.
• Even not being used, batteries discharge themselves.
Best practice is to disconnect the battery supply from
the power module if storing the mobility device longer
than two weeks. Depending on the mobility device
model, you can either remove the battery packs or
disconnect the batteries from the power module. Refer
to the corresponding chapter about disconnecting the
batteries. If in doubt which cable to disconnect, contact
your provider.
• Batteries should always be fully charged before storing.
• If storing the mobility device longer than four weeks,
check the batteries once a month and recharge as
needed (before gauge reads half full) to avoid damage.
• Store in a dry, well-ventilated environment protected
from outer influences.
• Slightly overinflate pneumatic tires.
