suddenly and may cause injury.
1.2 You and your KARMA service provider
No tools are required for assembly. Your wheelchair should be assembled by
your authorized KARMA dealer. Your authorized KARMA dealer is also your
service provider. Unauthorized repairs, upgrades and add-ons will void your
warranty. Anything wheelchair related that requires tools should be done by
your authorized KARMA service provider. Your KARMA service provider has the
necessary service/maintenance manual for your wheelchair.
If you have any defective parts or lose any parts, please contact your dealer
for repair and/or replacement. Please only use parts authorized by KARMA.
Use of parts that are not authorized by KARMA will void your warranty.
Part numbers are listed on our bill of materials (explosion drawings), which we
give to our authorized dealers and service providers. Customers should order
parts through their dealer as well as all repairs and scheduled maintenance.
Customers should go to their dealership for all service needs to guarantee
their warranty is not void. Always go to an authorized service provider.
Unauthorized repairs will void your warranty. Procedures other than those
described in this manual must be performed by a qualified technician. They
also have the service manual with a complete list of maintenance required to
keep your KARMA wheelchair in top performance. Check the “Warranty”

KARMA directly via our website or give us a call, and we can refer you to your
new service provider.
