Inflating the drive wheel tyres

Only drive the wheelchair with the correct tyre pressure. The tyre pressure for
the drive wheel tyres is 250 kPa (35 psi). Permobil recommends that you
check the tyre pressure weekly and after any significant change in
temperature or altitude.
Incorrect tyre pressure may make the wheelchair unstable and difficult to
drive. It may also result in abnormal wear, punctures, a shorter driving range,
and damage to the wheel assembly.
This is how you inflate the drive wheel tyres.
1. Unscrew and remove the valve cap from the tyre air valve.
2. Connect the compressed air nozzle to the valve and adjust the tyre
pressure to the prescribed level.
3. Put the valve cap back.
