5.2 Storage

5.2.1 Storage during daily use

The wheelchair must be stored in a dry place.

5.2.2 Storage during extended disuse

The wheelchair must be stored in a dry place. During longer storage periods, an ambient temperature between
-10 °C and +40 °C must be maintained.
It is not necessary to disassemble or fold up the wheelchair.

Tyres contain chemical substances that can react with other chemical substances (such as cleaning agents, acids,
etc.).
