WARNING

Batteries

Cleaning seating

Your wheelchair is supplied as standard from Sunrise Medical with maintenance- free batteries. These only require regular charging.

Do not, under any circumstances, tamper with the batteries. If in any doubt contact your local service agent.

Do not connect the battery charger to the mains supply until after you have connected the charger to the wheelchair. Before charging, please read the relevant section in this manual. Take care with battery acid which is very dangerous. It can cause burns to the skin as well as damage to floors, furniture and your wheelchair. If it comes into contact with the skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If it comes into contact with the eye, immediately flood the eye with running cold water for at least 10 minutes and seek medical attention immediately. Acid can be neutralised with baking soda and water. Take care to keep batteries upright at all times, especially when transporting your wheelchair.

NOTE: Before using your vehicle for the very first time, please charge your batteries for a period of 24 hours.

It is important that you clean all upholstery including headrest, armrests, calfpads and footplates on a regular basis using the correct methods as stated in this manual. This is important should the wheelchair be used by more than one person to ensure there is no cross infection.

WARNING

Cleaning controls

Should the control of your wheelchair become soiled or dirty, it can be wiped with a damp cloth with a dilute disinfectant until clean. This is important should the wheelchair be used by more than one person to ensure there is no cross infection.

WARNING

Cleaning paintwork

Clean with a damp, soapy cloth. Make sure that it is completely dry before using. Do not use abrasive cleaners or cloths.

WARNING

Surface temperatures

Storing the vehicle in a hot environment or in direct sunlight can cause surfaces to become hot.

WARNING

Upholstery

Please ensure ONLY genuine Sunrise Medical upholstery is fitted to your product by an authorised Sunrise Dealer
