• Before setting off, check that your tyre pressure is
correct. For rear wheels it should be at least 3.5 bar
(350 kPa). The max. pressure is indicated on the tyre.
The knee-lever brakes will only work if there is
sufficient tyre pressure and if the correct setting has
been made (see the Chapter on "Brakes").
• If the seat and back sling are damaged, you must
replace them immediately.
• Be careful with fire, in particular with burning
cigarettes. Seat and back slings can be set alight.
• If the wheelchair is subject to direct sunlight for a long
period of time, then parts of the wheelchair (e.g. frame,
legrests, brakes and sideguard) may become hot
(>41°C).
• Always make sure that the quick-release axles on the
rear wheels are set properly and lock in. If the button
on the quick-release axle is not pressed in, the rear
wheel cannot be removed.

WARNING!
• The effect of the knee-lever brake as well as the
general driving characteristics are dependent on tyre
pressure. The wheelchair is significantly lighter and
easier to manoeuvre when the rear wheels are
pumped up correctly and both wheels have the same
pressure.
• Make sure that your tyres have sufficient tread! Please
note that you are subject to any and all traffic laws
when driving in public traffic.
• Always be careful with your fingers when working or
adjusting the wheelchair!
