NOTE:
Please note that driving a wheelchair requires sufficient cognitive, physical and visual skills. The user must be able to assess the effects of actions during the operation of the  wheelchair and, if necessary, to correct them. These capabilities and the safe use of the additionally attached components cannot be assessed by Sunrise Medical as a  manufacturer. We cannot accept any liability for any damage resulting from this. Please refer to the operating instructions of the wheelchair and the  additionally mounted  components. Instruct the user in the safe use of the wheelchair and the additionally mounted components. Inform users of specific warnings that need to be read, understood, and respected.
When considering provision, please also note the body size, weight, physical and psychological constitution, the age of the person, living conditions and environment.

General safety notes and driving limits

Breezy P19180 Style X Ultra Rigid Wheelchair - fig13

The engineering and construction of this wheelchair has been designed to provide maximum safety. International safety standards currently in force have either been fulfilled  or exceeded in parts.
Nevertheless, users may put themselves at risk by improperly using their wheelchairs. For your own safety, the following rules must be strictly observed.
Unprofessional or erroneous changes or adjustments increase the risk of accident. As a wheelchair user, you are also part of the daily traffic on streets and pavements, just like  anyone else. We would like to remind you that you are therefore also subject to any and all traffic laws.
Be careful during your first ride in this wheelchair. Get to know your wheelchair.
Before each use, the following should be checked:
• Quick-release axles on the rear wheels
• Velcro on seats and backrests
• Tires, tyre pressure and wheel locks.
Before changing any of the adjustments of this wheelchair, it is important to read the corresponding section of the user’s manual.
It is possible that potholes or uneven ground could cause this wheelchair to tip over, especially when riding uphill or downhill.
When riding forwards over a step or up an incline, the body should be leaning forward.

DANGER!

  • NEVER exceed the maximum load of 125 kg Style X / 150 kg (136 kg crash tested) Style X Ultra for the driver plus any items carried on the wheelchair. Please note the  weight information for lighter weight options, which are quoted separately. If you exceed the maximum load, this can lead to damage to the chair, or you may fall or tip  over, lose control and may lead to serious injury of the user and other people.
  • 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.
  • To avoid falls and dangerous situations, you should first practice using your new wheelchair on level ground with good visibility.
  • When getting on or off the wheelchair, do not use the footboards. These should be flipped up beforehand and swung to the outside as far as possible. Always position yourself as close as possible to the place where you wish to sit.
  • Only use your wheelchair properly. For example, avoid travelling against an obstacle without braking (step, kern edge) or dropping down gaps.
  • The wheel locks are not intended to brake your wheelchair. They are only there to ensure that your wheelchair does not begin rolling unintentionally. When you stop on uneven ground, you should always use the wheel locks to prevent such rolling. Always apply both wheel locks; otherwise, your wheelchair could tip over.
  • Explore the effects of changing the centre of gravity on the behavior of the wheelchair, for example on inclines, slopes, all gradients or when overcoming obstacles. Do this with the secure aid of a helper.
  • With extreme settings (e.g. rear wheels in the most forward position) and less than perfect posture, the wheelchair may tip over even on a level surface.
  • Lean your upper body further forward when going up slopes and steps.
  • Lean your upper body further back when going down slopes and steps. Never try to climb and descend a slope diagonally.
  • Avoid using an escalator which may lead to serious injury in the event of a fall.
  • Do not use the wheelchair on slopes > 10°. The Dynamic safe slope is dependent on the chair configuration, the users abilities and the style of riding. As the user’s abilities and style of riding cannot be pre-determined then the max safe slope cannot be determined. Therefore this must be determined by the user with the assistance of an attendant to prevent tipping. It is strongly recommended that inexperienced users have anti-tip tubes fitted.
  • It is possible that potholes or uneven ground could cause this wheelchair to tip over, especially when riding uphill or downhill.
  • Do not use your wheelchair on muddy or icy ground. Do not use your wheelchair where pedestrians are not allowed.
  • To avoid hand injuries do not grab in between the spokes or between the rear wheel and wheel lock when driving the wheelchair.
  • In particular when using lightweight metal handrails, fingers will easily become hot when braking from a high speed or on long inclines.
  • Riding sideways on to a slope or incline, increases the possibility of the wheelchair tipping over sideways.
  • Only attempt stairs with the help of an attendant. There is equipment available to help you, e.g. climbing ramps or lifts, please use them. If there is no such equipment available, then the wheelchair must be tipped and pushed, never carried, over the steps (2 helpers). We recommend that users over 100 kg in weight do not use this stairway maneuver!
  • In general, any anti-tip tubes fitted must be set beforehand, so that they cannot touch the steps, as otherwise this could lead to a serious tumble. Afterwards the anti-tip tubes must be set back to their correct position.
  • Make sure that the attendant only holds the wheelchair using securely mounted parts (e.g. not on the footrests or the sideguards).
  • This wheelchair is not designed to be used whilst weight training and/or when using dumbbells. Only use equipment specifically designed for this purpose.
  • Do not lift or carry the wheelchair by the backrubs or the push handles.
  • When using the lifting ramp make sure that the anti-tip tubes fitted are positioned outside the danger area.
  • Secure your wheelchair on uneven ground or when transferring, e.g. into a car, by using the brakes.
  • If and whenever possible, during a journey in a specially fitted vehicle for disabled people, vehicle occupants should use the seats in the vehicle and the appropriate restraint system. This is the only way to ensure that occupants will have the maximum protection if there is an accident. When using safety elements offered by SUNRISE MEDICAL and using a specially designed safety system, lightweight wheelchairs can be used as a seat when being transported in a specially fitted vehicle. (See the Chapter on “Transportation”).
  • Depending on the diameter and setting of the castors, as well as the centre of gravity setting of the wheelchair, the castors may begin to wobble at high speeds. This can lead to the castors being blocked and the wheelchair may tip over. Therefore, please make sure that the castors are adjusted correctly (see the Chapter “Castors”). In particular, do not travel on an incline without brakes, travel at a reduced speed. We recommend that novice users use anti-tip tubes.
  • Anti-tip tubes should prevent the chair tipping over backwards unintentionally. Under no circumstances should they take the place of transit wheels, and be used to transport a person in a wheelchair with the rear wheels removed.
  • When reaching for objects (which are in front of, to the side or behind the wheelchair) make sure that you do not lean too far out of the wheelchair, as if you change the centre of gravity there is a risk of tipping or rolling over. The hanging of additional load (back pack or similar items) onto your chair back posts can affect the rearward stability of your chair, especially when used in combination with recliner backrests. This can cause the chair to tip backwards causing injury.
  • Adjustments to your wheelchair, particularly to safety-related components must be carried out by an approved dealer. This applies to adjustments to wheel locks, anti-tip tubes, backrest angle and height, lower leg length, COG, lap belt, rear wheel toe-in and camber, seat height as well as toe-in and directional stability of the castor fork.
  • When using mobility accessories fitted to the wheelchair such as handbacks, electronic power assist, etc., make sure that your wheelchair is fitted with the appropriate castor forks, approved for this use. Please contact your dealer if you have any questions.
  • Do not fit any unauthorized electronic equipment, powered or mechanically operated mobility drives, hand-bike or any other device that changes the intended use or the structure of the wheelchair.
  • Any combination with other medical devices requires the approval of Sunrise Medical.
  • Please note that in certain configurations the wheelchair may exceed a width of 700 mm. If this is the case, under certain circumstances, it may not be possible to use some or all of the available escape routes from a building. It may be more difficult or impossible to travel on public transport.
  • Further information and safety instructions can be provided by your authorised dealer.
  • For thigh amputees you must use anti-tip tubes.
  • Before setting off, check that your tyre pressure is correct. For rear wheels it should be at least 3.5 bar (350 kPa). The max. pressure is indicated on the tyre. The knee-lever brakes will only work if there is sufficient tyre pressure and if the correct setting has been made (see the Chapter on “Brakes”).
  • If the seat and back sling are damaged, you must replace them immediately.
  • Be careful with fire, in particular with burning cigarettes. Seat and back slings can be set alight.
  • If the wheelchair is subject to direct sunlight for a long period of time, then parts of the wheelchair (e.g. frame, largess, brakes and sideguard) may become hot (>41°C).
  • Always make sure that the quick-release axles on the rear wheels are set properly and lock in. If the button on the quickrelease axle is not pressed in, the rear wheel cannot be removed.
  • Always take care to avoid getting your clothing trapped in the drive wheels.

WARNING!
• The effect of the knee-lever brake as well as the general driving characteristics are dependent on tyre pressure. The wheelchair is significantly lighter and easier to maneuver  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.
• Always be careful with your fingers when working or adjusting the wheelchair!

WARNING!
CHOKING HAZARD – This mobility aid uses small parts which under certain circumstances may present a choking hazard to small children.
The wheelchairs shown and described in this user guide may not correspond in every detail exactly to your own model. However, all instructions are completely relevant,  regardless of possible detail differences.
The manufacturer reserves the right to alter without notice any weights, measurements or other technical data shown in this manual. All figures, measurements and capacities  shown in this manual are approximate and do not constitute specifications.

Transportability

DANGER!
There is a risk of serious injury or death if this if this advice is ignored!
Transportation of your wheelchair within a vehicle:
A wheelchair secured in a vehicle will not provide the equivalent level of safety and security as a vehicle seating system. It is always recommended that the user transfers to the  vehicle seating. It is recognized that this is not always practical for the user to be transferred and in these circumstances, where the user must be transported whilst in the  wheelchair, the following advice must be followed:

  1. Confirm that the vehicle is suitably equipped to transport a passenger in a wheelchair, and ensure the method of access/ egress is suitable for your wheelchair type. The  vehicle should have the floor strength to take the combined weight of the user, the wheel chair and accessories.
  2. Sufficient space should be available around the wheelchair to enable clear access to attach, tighten and release the wheelchair and occupant tie down restraints and safety  belts.
  3. The occupied wheelchair must be located in a forward facing position and secured by the wheelchair tie down and occupant restraint straps (WTORS tie downs meeting  the requirements of ISO 10542 or SAE J2249) in accordance with the WTORS manufacturer’s instructions.
  4. The wheelchair’s use in other positions within a vehicle has not been tested e.g. transportation in a side facing position must not be carried out under any circumstances (Fig. A).
  5. The wheelchair should be secured by a Tie Down Restraint system, conforming to ISO 10542 or SAE J2249 with nonadjustable front straps and adjustable rear straps,  which typically use Karabiner clips/S hooks and tongue and buckle fittings. These restraints generally comprise of 4 individual straps that are attached to each corner of  the wheelchair.
  6. The tie-down restraints should be fitted to the main frame of the wheelchair as indicated in the diagram on the following page, and not to any attachments or accessories,  e.g. not around the spokes of wheels, brakes or footrests.
  7. The tie–down restraints should be attached as close as possible at an angle of 45 degrees and tightened securely in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
  8. Alterations or substitutions must not be made to the wheelchair securement points or to structural and frame or components without consulting the manufacturer.  Failure to do so will invalidate the ability of a Sunrise Medical wheelchair to be transported within a vehicle.Breezy P19180 Style X Ultra Rigid Wheelchair - fig14
  9. Both pelvic and upper torso restraint belts must be used to restrain the occupant to reduce the possibility of head and chest impacts with the vehicle components and  serious risk of injury to the user and other vehicle occupants. (Fig B) The upper torso restraint belt should be mounted to the vehicle “B” pillar – failure to do so will  increase the risk of serious abdominal injuries to the user.
  10. A head restraint suitable for transportation (see label on headrest) must be fitted and suitably positioned at all times during transportation.
  11. Postural supports (lap straps, lap belts) should not be used or relied on for occupant restraint in a moving vehicle unless they are labelled as meeting the requirements  specified in ISO 7176-19 or SAE J2249.
  12. The safety of the user during transportation depends upon the diligence of the person securing the tie-down restraints and they should have received appropriate  instructions and/or training in their use.
  13. Wherever possible remove and stow safely away from the wheelchair all auxiliary equipment, for example: Crutches, Loose cushions and Tray Tables.
  14. Articulating/elevating leg rest should not be used in the elevated position when the wheelchair and user are being transported and the wheelchair is restrained using  Wheelchair Transport and Occupant Restraints.
  15. Reclining backrests should be returned to an upright position.
  16. The manual brakes must be firmly applied.
  17. Restraints should be mounted to the vehicle “B” pillar and should not be held away from the body by wheelchair components such as armrest or wheels.
    NOTE: The Breezy Style is suitable to be used as a seat in a vehicle only if the transportation kit is fitted to the rear frame. For the UK this kit is fitted as STANDARD,  but for other countries, the kit is an OPTION and must be selected from the order form.

DANGER!

  • The Transportation kit must be fitted to the wheelchair before using it to transport a passenger within a vehicle.
  • The Transportation kit must be fitted by a Sunrise Medical approved dealer.

Occupant Restraints Instruction:

  1. The pelvic restraint belt must be worn low across the front of the pelvis so that the angle of the pelvic belt is within the preferred zone of 30 to 75 degrees to the  horizontal.
    A steeper (greater) angle within the preferred zone is desirable i.e. closer to, but never exceeding 75degrees. (Fig C)

  2. The upper torso restraint belt must fit over the shoulder and across the chest as illustrated Fig d and e Restraint belts must be adjusted as tightly as possible consistent with user comfort.
    Restraint belt webbing must not be twisted when in use.
    The upper torso restraint belt must fit over the shoulder and across the shoulder as illustrated in Fig D and E.

  3. The attachment points to the chair are the inner front side frame just above the castor, and the rear side frame. The straps are fitted around the side frames at the  intersection of the horizontal and vertical frame tubes. (See Figs G-H).

  4. The tie down symbol (Fig F) on the wheelchair frame indicates the position of the wheelchair restraint straps. The straps are then tensioned after the front straps have  been fitted to secure the wheelchair.
    Positioning of wheelchair tie down restraints on wheelchair:

1. Location of the front and rear tie down labels (Fig.G – H).
Minimun User Weight 22 kg:
When the user being transported is a child, less than 22Kg mass and the vehicle involved has less than eight (8) seated passengers it is recommended that they be transferred  to an UNCE Regulation
44 compliant child restraint system (CRS).
This type of restraint system provides a more effective occupant restraint system than the conventional 3 point occupant restraint system and some CRS systems also include  additional postural supports to assist in maintaining the position of the child when seated.
Parents or care providers may consider the option, in some
circumstances, for their child is to remain in their wheelchair whilst in transport due to the level of posture control and comfort provided by the set up in the wheelchair.
We would recommend in such circumstances that a risk assessment be carried out by your healthcare professional and relevant competent persons.
Maximum user weight: 136 kg.Breezy P19180 Style X Ultra Rigid

Handling

Folding up
First remove the seat cushion and the back seat shell from the wheelchair and flip up the (platform) footplate or the individual footrests. Take hold of the sling or the seat  tubes in the middle, from the back and pull upwards. The wheelchair will then fold up. To fold your wheelchair so that it is as small as possible, e.g., to put into a car, you can  remove the footrests (depending on the model). For this purpose, open the latch from the outside and swing the footrest to the side. Then the footrest only has to be drawn out of the receiver tube (Fig. 1.0). Transportation
To move the mobility aid, the folded wheelchair should be lifted by holding the front part of the cross-brace and the push handles.

Unfolding
Press down on the seat tube (see figure). Your wheelchair is then unfolded. Now snap the seat tubing into position in the seat saddle. This can be facilitated by slightly tipping your wheelchair, as this means that the weight is taken off one of the rear wheels. Be careful not to get your fingers caught in the cross-tube assembly. Refit the seat cushion
(Fig. 2.0).

Transporting the Wheelchair

When transporting the unoccupied wheelchair in a vehicle, it should be tied down or strapped in.
Quick-Release Axles for Rear Wheels (Fig.3.0)

Removing the rear wheels will keep the wheelchair as compact as possible.
The rear wheels are equipped with quick-release axles. The wheels can thus be installed or removed with out using tools. To remove a wheel, simply depress the quick-release  button on the axle (1) and pull it out.Breezy P19180
Style X Ultra Rigid Wheelchair - Rear

CAUTION!
Hold the quick-release button on the axle depressed when inserting the axle into the frame to mount the rear wheels. Release the button to lock the wheel in place. The quick- release button should snap back to its original position.
Getting into your wheelchair independently (Fig. 4.0)

  • The wheelchair should be pushed up against a wall or solid piece of furniture;
  • The brakes should be on;
  • The footplates should be hinged up;
  • The user can then lower himself into the chair;
  •  The footplates should then be pushed down and the feet rested on them in front of the heel loops.

Getting out of your wheelchair independently (Fig. 5.0)

  • The brakes should be on;
  • The hinged footplates should be hinged up;
  • With one hand on each armrest, the person should bend slightly forward to bring the body weight to the front of the seat, and with both feet firmly on the ground, one  foot well back, push up into the upright position.

WARNING!

When standing, do not stand on the footplates or the wheelchair will tip up. It is easier and safer to get into your wheel chair if you turn the footplates up and out of the way or take them off the wheelchair.

Options – Seat depth

SEAT DEPTH
By removing the clips (1), the cross-brace unit (2) can be pushed along the frame, which then alters the seat depth (depending on the position of the back tubes).
Make sure that the clips (1) snap into the frame holes provided.
To keep the frame as compact as possible, the seat depth can also be adjusted by using the back tubes (410 – 460mm in steps of 25mm). To do this remove the screws (1 and  2) on the back tube bracket. Remove the wheels and the armrests and check that the cross-brace is in the desired position (push the cross- brace as described above). Move the  back tubes to the desired position and re-tighten all screws. Move the receiver tube for the armrests to the desired position (Fig. 6.0).Breezy P19180 Style X Ultra Rigid Wheelchair -

Options – Brakes

Wheel locks
Your wheelchair is equipped with two wheel locks. They are applied directly against the tyres. To engage, press both brake levers forward against the stops. To release the  locks, pull the levers back to their original positions.

Braking power will decrease with:

  • Worn tyre tread
  • Tyre pressure that is too low
  •  Wet tyres
  • Improperly adjusted wheel locks The wheel locks have not been designed to be used as brakes for a moving wheelchair. The wheel locks should therefore never be  used  to brake a moving wheelchair. Always use the hand-rims for braking. Make sure that the gap between the tyres and wheel locks complies with given specifications.

To readjust, loosen the screw and set the appropriate gap. Then re-tighten the screw (Fig. 7.0 + 8.0).

CAUTION!
After each adjustment of the rear wheels, check the wheel lock gap and re- adjust if necessary.
Brake lever Extension
The extension for the brake lever can be removed or folded down. The longer lever helps to minimize the effort needed to set the wheel locks (Fig.9.0).

CAUTION!
Mounting the wheel lock too close towards the wheel will result in a higher effort to operate. This might cause the brake lever extension to break!
CAUTION!
Leaning onto the brake lever extension while transferring will cause the lever to break! Splashing water from tyres might cause the wheel lock to malfunction.
Drum Brakes
Drum brakes permit safe and convenient braking for an attendant.
They can also be set with the aid of a locking lever (1) to prevent rolling. The lever must snap audibly into place. Drum brakes are not influenced by air pressure inside the tyres. Your wheelchair cannot be moved when the drum brakes are set (Fig. 10.0).

CAUTION!
Drum brakes must only be adjusted by authorised dealers.
Options – Footplates
Footplates:
The footplates can be flipped up to make it easier to transfer to/from the chair.

Lower leg length:
For users with longer legs, the leg support can be lowered to the appropriate level by using the screws (1). Loosen the screws, push the tubes to the desired position and then  re-tighten the screws (see section on torque). There must always be a minimum gap of 25mm between the footplates and the ground, (Fig. 11.0).

Footrests and Latch
The largess can be swung inwards under the seat sling or outwards. When fitting the largess, the footrests must be pointing inwards or outwards. Then rotate the largest inwards, until it locks into place. To remove, pull the lever (1), swing the footplate inwards or outwards and then lift the largest out. Make sure that the largest is locked into  place correctly, (Fig. 12.0).

CAUTION!

  • The largess must not be used to lift or to carry the wheelchair.
  • When getting on or off the wheelchair, do not use the footboards.
    These should be flipped up beforehand or the footrest should be swung to the outside as far as possible.

Option Elevating Largest
(Fig. 13.0-15.0)
To remove, pull the lever (1), swing the footplate outwards and then lift the largest out.

Height Adjustment:
The lower leg length can be adjusted infinitely by releasing the screw (2). Adjust the suitable height and tighten the screw again.

CAUTION!
The distance between the footplate and the ground must be at least 40 mm.

Angle Adjustment:
Press the lever (3) downward with one hand while supporting the largest with the other hand to take the load off. When a suitable angle is achieved, let go of the lever and  the largest will lock into one of the preset positions.

CAUTION!

  • Keep hands clear of the adjustment mechanism between, the frame and the movable parts of the footrest while elevating or lowering the footrest.
  • The footrests should not be used to lift or to carry the wheelchair
  • Risk of trapping fingers!
  • When moving the footrest up or down, do not put your fingers in the adjusting mechanism between the moving parts of the footrest.

Adjusting the calf pad
The calf pad can be adjusted as follows:
Height: Open bolt (4 Fig.16.0) and move the clamping piece to the desired position. By rotating the clamping piece also the angle can be adjusted.
Depth: Open bolt (5) and move the calf pad into the desired position.
Width: Open bolt (5) and position the spacers (6) behind the pad, to get the desired position.

CAUTION!
Always make sure that the fasteners are secure.
Amputee Support
(Fig.17).
The Amputee Support can be adjusted in every direction as required.

Options – Castors
Castors, castor plates, forks
The wheelchair may veer slightly to the right or left, or the castors may wobble. This may be caused by the following:

  • Forward and/or reverse wheel motion has not been set properly.
  • The castor angle has not been set correctly.
  • Castor and/or rear wheel air pressure is incorrect; the wheels do not turn smoothly.

The wheelchair will not move in a straight line if the castors have not been properly adjusted. Castors should always be adjusted by an authorised dealer. The castor plates  must be re-adjusted, and the wheel locks must be checked every time the rear wheel position has been altered.
The seat height is determined by the castor and rear wheel position.
The seat height can be adjusted by altering the position of the rear wheels and the castors (see seat height matrix on page 14).
CAUTION!
After adjusting the seat height, all screws must be re-tightened and the wheel lock must be readjusted.

HEADRESTS
The headrest can be raised and moved both forwards and backwards. To do this, simply loosen the screw, adjust the headrest to the desired position, and tighten the screw  (see the section on torque) (Fig. 39.0).

Options – Transit wheels
TRANSIT WHEELS
Transit wheels should be used wherever your wheelchair would be too wide if the rear wheels were used (e.g., in airplanes, buses, etc.). After the rear wheels have been  removed with the aid of the quickrelease axles, the transit wheels can immediately be used to continue riding. The transit wheels are mounted so that they are approx. 3  centimeters above the ground when not in use. They are thus out of the way when riding, transporting or when tipping to pass over obstacles (e.g., kerns, steps, etc.) (Fig.
40.0).Breezy P19180 Style X Ultra Rigid Wheelchair - Transit
wheels

CAUTION:
Your wheelchair does not have any wheel locks when the transit wheels are being used.

Tires and mounting
Pneumatic tyres are fitted as standard from the factory.
If pneumatic tyres are used, make sure that you maintain the correct tyre pressure, as this can have an effect on wheelchair performance. If the tyre pressure is too low, rolling  resistance will increase, requiring more effort to move the chair forward. Low tyre pressure also has a negative impact on maneuverability. If the tyre pressure is too high, the  tyre could burst. The correct pressure for a given tyre is printed on the surface of the tyre itself. Tires can be mounted the same way as an ordinary bicycle tyre. Before installing a new inner tube, you should always make sure that the base of the rim and the interior of the tyre are free of foreign objects. Check the pressure after mounting or  repairing a tyre. It is critical to your safety and to the wheelchair’s performance that regulation air pressure be maintained and that tyres be in good condition.

Name Plate
The nameplate is located on either the cross-tube assembly or the transverse frame tube, as well as on a label in the owner’s manual. The nameplate indicates the exact model  designation and other technical specifications. Please provide the following pieces of information whenever you have to order replacement parts or to file a claim:

Maintenance and care

SAFETY CHECK:
As the user you will be the first person to notice any possible defects. We therefore recommend that before each use, you check the following:
The tyre pressure is correct.
The brakes work correctly.
All removable parts are securely fastened (e.g. armrests, footrest hangers, quick-release axles …).
If there is any damage/defect, please contact your authorised dealer.

MAINTENANCE:
Check the tyre pressure at regular intervals.
Check all tyres for wear and damage at regular intervals, at least annually. Change the tyres as soon as there is any sign of damage or wear.
Check the seat and back sling for wear and damage at regular intervals, at least annually. Change these items as soon as there is any sign of damage or wear.
Check all frame and backrest components for wear and damage at regular intervals, at least annually. Change these items as soon as there is any sign of damage or wear.
Check the brakes for wear and damage at regular intervals, at least annually. Check that they are working properly and are easy to use. Change the brakes as soon as there is  any sign of damage or wear. Check to make sure all bolts are secure (see the section on torque) at regular intervals, at least annually. All screws which are critical to using the  wheelchair safely have safety nuts. Safety nuts should only be used once and should be replaced after use.

NOTE: If torque settings are given, then we strongly recommend that you use a torque measuring device, in order to check that you have tightened to the correct torque.
Please use only mild household cleaners when your wheelchair is dirty. Use only soap and water when cleaning the seat upholstery and lap belt.
Depending on the frequency and type of use, we recommend taking your wheelchair to your authorised dealer regularly, but at least within a year, to have it maintained by trained personnel.

CAUTION!
Sand, salt and sea water can damage the bearings of the front and rear wheels. Clean and dry the wheelchair carefully, after they have been exposed to these elements.
Hygiene measures when being re-used:
Prior to the wheelchair being re-used, it must be carefully prepared.
All surfaces which come into contact with the user must be treated with a disinfection spray.
To do this, you must use a disinfectant as authorised/recommended in your country, for rapid alcohol-based disinfection for medical products and medical devices, which  must be disinfected quickly.
Please be aware of the manufacturer’s instructions for the disinfectant you are using.
In general, a complete disinfection cannot be guaranteed on seams.
We therefore recommend that you dispose of seat and back slings to avoid micro-bacterial contamination with active agents according to your local infection protection law.

Trouble Shooting
