Inflation
Check if the tube is perfectly clamped between tire
and cover.
Check the valve fitting.
First inflate the tire with just enough air so you can still
push in with your thumb. Check the fit of the tire on the
rim. If the tire cover is not centered on the rim, deflate
the tire a bit and readjust it.
Then inflate the tire to its maximum operating pressure
(see tire cover) and close the valve with the protection
cap.

MAINTENANCE

4.5.1 Cleaning and Care

�
INDICATION
Never treat the wheelchair with a high pressure
cleaner! Please use silicon free, water based
cleaning and care supplies.
The indications on application given by the
manufacturer are to be followed. Do not use any
aggressive cleaning supplies such as dissolvers or
hard brushes etc.
COATING
To tend the finish, we recommend using customary
branded finish care products. Should the coating still
be damaged through scrapes, hits etc. you may correct
those spots with a touch up applicator available in
the specialty store (apart from metallic and dormant
colors).
PLASTIC PARTS
The clothing protection and similar parts consist of
high quality plastic. Only clean these parts with warm
water and neutral cleaning agents or soft soap.
PLEASE NOTE:
When using customary plastic cleaners, the
indications on application given by the manufacturer
are to be followed.
CUSHIONS AND COVERS
The covers of the molded firm seat and back parts
may be removed with the zippers. We recommend
washing them regularly with a mild detergent and low
temperature in the washing machine.
PLEASE NOTE:
Please clean other cushions and covers (e.g. from seat
shells) with warm water and hand soap. Many stains
can be removed with a sponge or a soft brush.

store, which built your seat shell, for advice on cleaning
the cover.

a damp cloth and mild cleaning agent. Please dry well
