Storage
General Recommendations
• Your wheelchair must be stored in a clean and dry area. Do not store near any
pointed objects that may damage the wheelchair.
• If your wheelchair is stored for several weeks, please consult the Maintenance
Checklist, and proceed to a thorough inspection before use. It is important to verify
the proper functioning of each component. If necessary, perform the
recommended maintenance.
• If your wheelchair has been stored for over two (2) months, an inspection by a
qualified technician is required.
• To avoid damaging your wheelchair, never store your wheelchair in an excessively
humid area or leave your wheelchair outside for long periods of time in bad
weather, such as rain, snow, or extreme cold temperatures.
Unfolding the wheelchair
To facilitate storage as well as transport and shipping, the wheelchair can be folded
to reduce its width.
1. Position both hands over the seat
rails.
2. Make sure your fingers and thumbs
are placed inside the seat.
3. Press down on both seat rails
simultaneously, until the wheelchair
is completely unfolded, and the seat
rails are locked in place.
4. Reinstall all components that have
been removed.
Note - Make sure the footrest or legrest
is locked in place before using your
wheelchair.
WARNING
Be careful not to pinch your fingers between the seat rails and the frame
•
when unfolding your wheelchair.
Make sure the wheelchair is completely unfolded and the seat rails are
•
securely locked in place before using your wheelchair.
