2. SAFETY MEASURES AND GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
2.1. BEFORE USING YOUR BATEC FOR THE FIRST TIME 
• Before using your Batec for the first time, read this user manual carefully.
• Don’t  exceed  the  maximum  weight  of  110  kg.  This  includes  the  user’s
weight and any other object being carried.
• The  Batec  isn't  compatible  with  all  wheelchairs  on  the  market.  Before
installing  it,  check  the  current  Batec  Compatibility  Table  on  our  website
(www.batec-mobility.com).
• It is important to start out slowly the first time you use your Batec in order
to  learn  the  sensations  you  get  and  become  familiar  with  it.  Each  new
manoeuvre is a potential risk. Be particularly careful with turns and speed.
• Choose a calm place to use your Batec the first time.
• Have  someone  help  you  become  familiar  with  your  Batec.  Each  new
manoeuvre can put you at risk of injury. Never use your Batec alone until
you have gained the necessary skill level. When someone is helping you, it
is important for them to have read the user manual beforehand as well.
• Safe use of the Batec requires training and experience.
• The Batec is a medical device classified as a technical aid for mobility and
we recommend consulting your local regulations on the circulation of such
vehicles.  Batec  Mobility  S.L.  can  provide  you  with  the  Declaration  of
Conformity  as  a  medical  device  or  certification  as  a  technical  aid,  if
required.
• Check local laws regarding add-on handbikes and wheelchairs, as they may
vary depending on your location.
• Always do a safety check on your Batec before each use. To do this, check:
- Conditions of the fixed or removable axles on the rear  wheels of your
wheelchair.
- The Velcro on the seat and backrest of your wheelchair.
- Tyre pressure on your wheelchair. If it is too low, there is a greater risk
of  tipping  over  and  greater  wear  (recommended  pressure  for
wheelchair: see side of tyre).
