12 Information on Re-Use
The B600 power wheelchair is suitable for re-use.
Similar to second-hand machines or vehicles, products that
are being re-used are subject to increased strain. Features
and functions must not change in a way that could endan-
ger patients or other persons within the product's life cycle.
Based on market observations and the current state-of-the-
art, the manufacturer has calculated that the B600 power
wheelchair can be used for a period of 5 years, provided
that it is used properly and that the service and maintenance
instructions are observed. Periods during which the wheel-
chair is stored at the dealer or with paying parties are not
included in this period. It should be clearly pointed out, how-
ever, that the B600 is a reliable product far beyond this de-
fined period of time, provided that it is cared for and main-
tained properly.
In cases of re-use, the corresponding product must first be
thoroughly cleaned and disinfected.
Subsequently, the product must be examined by an author-
ized specialist to check the condition, wear, and possible
defects.

Any worn and damaged components as well as compo-
nents which do not fit or are unsuitable for the new user
must be replaced.
The service manual includes a service schedule for each
model, detailed information, and a list of the required tools.
