WARNING

SECTION 1 - GENERAL GUIDELINES contains important information for the safe operation and use of this product.

Controller Settings/Repair or Service

Set‐up of the Electronic Control Unit is to be performed ONLY by a qualified technician. The final adjustments of the controller may affect other activities of the wheelchair. Damage to the equipment could occur if improperly set‐up or adjusted.

DO NOT service or adjust your wheelchair while occupied, unless otherwise noted.

Wheelchairs should be examined during maintenance for signs of corrosion (water exposure, incontinence, etc.). Electrical components damaged by corrosion should be replaced IMMEDIATELY.

Wheelchairs that are used by incontinent users and/or are frequently exposed to water may require replacement of electrical components more frequently.

TRANSPORT READY PACKAGES ARE NOT RETROFITTABLE TO EXISTING MODELS AND ARE NOT FIELD SERVICEABLE.

Accessories Information

EXTREME care should be exercised when using oxygen in close proximity to electric circuits and other combustible materials. Contact your oxygen supplier for instruction in the use of oxygen.

Operation Information

Performance adjustments should only be made by professionals of the healthcare field or persons fully conversant with this process and the driverʹs capabilities. Incorrect settings could cause injury to the driver, bystanders, damage to the wheelchair and to surrounding property.

After the wheelchair has been set‐up, check to make sure that the wheelchair performs to the specifications entered during the set‐up procedure. If the wheelchair does NOT perform to specifications, turn the wheelchair Off IMMEDIATELY and reenter set‐up specifications. Repeat this procedure until the wheelchair performs to specifications.

ALWAYS shift your weight in the direction you are turning. DO NOT shift your weight in the opposite direction of the turn. Shifting your weight in the opposite direction of the turn may cause the inside drive wheel to lose traction and the wheelchair to tip over.

DO NOT shift your weight or sitting position toward the direction you are reaching as the wheelchair may tip over.
