NOTICE
Electricinterferenceduetoelectromagneticfields.The
power wheelchair has been tested according to EMC
regulations. Take care of the following particularities dur-
ing the operation:
The driving characteristics of the power wheelchair can
be affected by electromagnetic fields (mobile phones or
other radiating devices). Please switch off all mobile de-
vices when driving.
The power wheelchair can generate electromagnetic
fields that can cause interference with other devices.
Therefore, switch off the controls whenever you do not
need them.
INFORMATION
When the wheelchair is used on the street, its user is re-
quired to obey the public trafc regulations.
the tyres are inflated to the correct tyre pressure.
Whenever possible, avoid parking the wheelchair out-
doors and on direct sunlight (UV light) as it causes the
tyres to age prematurely. As a result, the tread surface
hardens and corner pieces break out of the tread.
Otto Bock recommends to replace the tyres every 2 years
regardless of wear and tear.
When the wheelchair is not used for extended periods of
time, or if the tyres are heated strongly (e. g. near radia-
tors or by sunlight shining through a window), permanent
deformation of the tyres will result. Therefore always make
sure that the wheelchair has sufficient distance from
sources of heat, move your wheelchair from time to time,
or jack up the wheelchair when storing it.
NOTICE
Risk of tyre damage. Too high an air pressure in your
tyres may result in tyre defect. Please observe the data in
Section “Technical Data”. The maximum air pressure must
not be exceeded.
