DANGER!
The wheel locks are not intended to brake your
wheelchair whilst it is moving. They are only there to
ensure that your wheelchair does not begin rolling away.
When you stop on uneven ground/floors, you should
always use the wheel locks to prevent such rolling.
Always apply both wheel locks; otherwise, your
wheelchair could tip over.
CAUTION!
The wheel locks have not been designed to be used as
brakes for a moving wheelchair.
Always make use of elevators and ramps. If these are not
available, you should request the help of an attendant.
They should only grip the wheelchair at securely mounted
parts. If anti-tip tubes are fitted these must be folded
away. A wheelchair should never be lifted with an
occupant; it should only be pushed.
DANGER!
Do not lift or carry the wheelchair by the backtubes or •
the pushhandles.
If the seat and back sling are damaged, you must •
replace them immediately.
Be careful with fire, in particular with lighted •
cigarettes, seat and back slings can catch fire. seat
and back slings can catch fire.
To avoid injuries to the hand when operating the •
wheelchair, grip between the rear wheel and the
brake.
Always make sure that the quick-release axles on the •
rear wheels are set properly. If the button on the
quick-release axle is not pressed in, the rear wheel
cannot be removed.
DANGER!
In particular when using lightweight metal handrims, •
fingers will easily become hot when braking from a
high speed or on long inclines.
If the wheelchair is subject to direct sunlight for a long •
period of time, then parts of the wheelchair (e.g.
frame, legrests, brakes and side guard) may become
hot (>41°C).
WARNINGS!
When using the chair outside, always wear leather •
gloves which will increase your grip and protect the
fingers from dirt and overheating.
The effect of the brake as well as the general driving •
characteristics are dependent on tyre pressure. The
wheelchair is significantly lighter and easier to
manoeuvre when the rear wheels are pumped up
correctly and both wheels have the same pressure.
Make sure that your tyres have sufficient tread!•
Please note that you are subject to any and all traffic •
laws when driving in public traffic.
Before using the wheelchair for the first time, the user •
must receive the necessary instruction.
When it is dark, please wear light clothing or clothing •
with reflectors, so that you can be seen more easily.
Make sure that the reflectors on the side and back of
the wheelchair are clearly visible. We would also
recommend that you fit an active light.

Do not use the wheelchair on muddy or icy ground.•
Only use the wheelchair in areas which are permitted •
for pedestrians.
