Lighting Maintenance; Cleaning And Disinfection; Medium To Long Term Storage - Sunrise Medical Quickie Q700 M General Manual

8.3 Lighting maintenance

DANGER!
Maintaining lights and indicators is a safety critical task. If
your lights and indicator system shows a defect, please
contact your Sunrise Medical authorized dealer.
All lights and indicators are state of the art LED low energy,
no maintenance units. There are no light bulbs used. The
high intrinsic reliability of these units means that they are
extremely unlikely to fail under normal usage. If a failure
should occur, (may be as a result of an impact), the damaged
light assembly must be replaced in its entirety. The individual
LED's cannot be replaced.
CAUTION!
• We recommend the use of Sunrise Medical authorized
spare parts only.
• Be advised that all lighting circuits are electronically
protected. In the event of a short circuit current will be
limited to a safe level. Once the fault is removed the system
resets automatically.

8.4 Cleaning and disinfection

The wheelchair should be wiped down once per week with
a slightly damp, not wet, cloth and any fluff or dust that has
accumulated around the motors should be blown or dusted
away.
CAUTION!
Make sure that you dry all parts of your wheelchair if it
becomes wet or damp after cleaning or if it is used in a wet
or damp atmosphere.
DANGER!
It is important that should the wheelchair be used by more
than one person it is cleaned thoroughly to ensure there is
no cross infection.
Hygiene measures when being re-used:
Prior to the wheelchair being re-used, it must be carefully
prepared. All surfaces which come into contact with the user
must be treated with a disinfection spray.
To do this, you must use a suitable disinfectant for rapid
alcohol-based disinfection of medical products and medical
devices.
Please take into account the manufacturer's instructions for
the disinfectant you are using.
CAUTION!
• Do not use solvents, bleaches, abrasives, synthetic
detergents, wax polishes or aerosols.
• Disinfectants may be used in dilution as specified by the
manufacturer.
• Ensure surfaces are rinsed with clean water and dried
thoroughly.

Cleaning controls: & Controller
Should the control of your wheelchair become soiled or
dirty, it can be wiped with a damp cloth with a dilute
disinfectant until clean.

8.5 Medium to long term storage

When storing your wheelchair for long periods of time (in
excess of one week), follow these simple instructions:
• Fully charge the wheelchair for at least 24 hours.
• Disconnect the charger.
• Disconnect the batteries.
WARNING!
Never store your wheelchair:
• Outside.
• In direct sunlight, (plastic parts may discolor).
• Near a source of direct heat.
• In a damp environment.
• In a cold environment.
• With the batteries/battery boxes connected, (even if the
controller is switched off).
Avoiding all of the above will minimize battery deep cycle
discharge and extend battery lifetime.
When returning the wheelchair to use, please reconnect the
batteries/battery boxes and charge the wheelchair for at
least 24 hours before use.
