MAINTENANCE
BraunAbility
wheelchair acces-
®
sible vehicles are designed to
provide years of pleasure and
mobility independence. Regular
preventive maintenance proce-
dures will ensure trouble-free
operation and increase the ser-
vice life of your vehicle, as well
as enhancing safety. Review this
maintenance section with your
sales representative.
Consumer Maintenance
As a consumer, general preven-
tive maintenance cleaning and
visual inspection procedures
should be a part of your routine.
Keeping the wheelchair acces-
sible door and lowered floor
opening clean is one of the most
effective preventive maintenance
practices the consumer can exer-
cise. Inspect and clean often.

Side Entry Vehicles
Foldout and Infloor Ramps: Keep
the passenger side slide door
lower track pan free of debris, ice
and snow. Smooth unobstructed
slide door operation is crucial for
dependable door and ramp func-
tions.
Infloor Ramp: Keep the infloor
ramp and ramp cassette area
clean as well as the door track.
Dirt, mud, snow, ice and other
debris entering the cassette can
result in potential ramp problems.
Inspect wheelchair tiedowns, oc-
cupant restraint belts and associ-
ated hardware. See Strap, Belt
and Anchorage Maintenance on
page 33 for further details.
If there is any sign of damage,
wear, abnormal condition or im-
proper operation, discontinue use
immediately. Contact your sales
representative or call 1-800-488-
0359. One of our BraunAbility
Customer Care representatives
will direct you to an authorized
service center.
Preventive maintenance pro-
cedures performed by the con-
sumer do not take the place of
the procedures outlined in Main-
tenance Guidelines and Service
Log Booklet, or the maintenance
procedures specified in the cor-
responding service manual.
