NOTICE
Risk of damage due to improper preparation of maintenance tasks.
The Xeno power wheelchair must be turned off and the fuse must be removed for all maintenance
tasks. This does not apply to functional tests of the electrical components.
• Secure the product to prevent it from tipping over or falling, e.g. off the workbench.
• Some components of the power wheelchair, e.g. the batteries, frame, seat and motors, are very
heavy. Hoisting devices of sufficient capacity must be used where applicable.
• Clean / disinfect the product before you start the inspection. Consult the instructions for use regard-
ing product care or product-specific inspection information.
NOTICE
Risk of damage due to unsecured screw connections. Unsecured screw connections can become
loose while using the product. Secure screws and nuts. The screw connections must be tightened
properly after all installation tasks. Defined torque specifications must be followed.
The screws and nuts for many of the screw connections are equipped with thread lock. If you have
to undo such screw connections, the nuts or screws must be replaced with new ones equipped with
thread lock. If new screws or nuts with thread lock are not available, apply a medium-strength liquid
thread lock substance (such as Loctite® 241 or Euro Lock A24.20) to the existing screws.
NOTICE
Risk of upholstery damage. During any work on the seat, the upholstery must be adequately protected
against mechanical and chemical damage. The back rest and seat bottom are flame retardant but
nevertheless flammable. They must not come into contact with open flame or embers.
NOTICE
Risk of damage due to improper cleaning after the completion of maintenance tasks. The Xeno
may not be cleaned with a jet of water or a pressure washer under any circumstances. A cloth or
sponge may be used for cleaning. Water must not come into direct contact with the motor under any
circumstances. Check the operating performance of the Xeno power wheelchair after cleaning.
INFORMATION
The tyres of the Xeno power wheelchair contain chemical substances that may react with other chemi-
cal substances (e.g. cleaning agents, acids, etc.).
