2.5 Safety: Choking hazard
DANGER! This mobility aid uses small parts which under certain circumstances may present a choking hazard to young children.
2.6 Safety: Using a (vehicle mounted) wheelchair lift Wheelchair lifts are used in vans, buses and buildings to help you move from one level to another.
DANGER! · Ensure that the user and all carers fully understand the lift
manufacturer’s instructions for using the passenger lift. · Never exceed the lift manufacturer’s recommended safe
working load and load distribution guidance. · Always turn off all power when you are on the lift. If you fail
to do so, you may touch the joystick by accident and cause your chair to drive off the platform. Be aware that a roll-stop at the end of the platform may not prevent this. · Always position the user securely in the chair to help avoid falls while on the lift. · Always ensure the chair is in drive mode when using passenger lift (wheels locked not in freewheel mode).
2.7 Safety: Trays
Safety: Swing away tray:
DANGER! · The maximum weight allowed for the tray is 2.5kg. · Do not overload the tray, this could cause the tray to break
or could cause the chair to become unstable. · Please make sure any items placed on the tray are secure as
they could fall and cause injury. · Do not leave lit cigarettes or other heat sources on the tray
as this could cause the tray to deform and mark – and, in extreme cases, lead to fire. · Ensure that all extremities and clothing are clear when positioning the tray for use.
2.8 Safety: Lifting the wheelchair
WARNING! · Do not lift this seating system by any parts that are
removable, doing so may result in damage to the seating system or injury to the user.

3.1 Area of application: The user
Power wheelchairs are exclusively for a user who is unable to walk or has limited mobility, for their own personal use indoors and outdoors. Driving a powered wheelchair requires cognitive, physical and visual skills. The user must be able to estimate and correct the results of actions when operating the wheelchair. The wheelchair cannot transport more than 1 person at a time. The maximum weight limit (includes both the user and any weight of accessories fitted to the wheelchair) is marked on the serial number label, which is affixed to the chassis of the chair (Fig. 2.9). For restrictions on user weight limit refer to seating manual &. The user must be informed of the contents of this user manual before driving the wheelchair. In addition, the user of the wheelchair must be given thorough instruction by a qualified specialist before he or she participates in traffic. The first sessions in the wheelchair should be practiced under supervision of a trainer/advisor.
When an Attendant Control Module is fitted, an assistant on behalf of the user may operate the Power Wheelchair.
When a Dual Control Module is fitted the Power Wheelchair may be operated by the user, or control may be switched to an assistant to operate on behalf of the user.

Indications
The varieties of fitting variants, as well as the modular design, mean that it can be used by those who cannot walk or have limited mobility because of [R2]: · Paralysis · Loss of extremity (leg amputation) · Extremity defect deformity · Joint contractures/joint injuries · Illnesses such as heart and circulation deficiencies, disturbance of
equilibrium or cachexia as well as for elderly people who still have strength in the upper body.
The Quickie Q700-Up M/F wheelchair with standing function is specifically developed for people who have lost to their ability to stand (e.g. paraplegia, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy etc.). Standing is used for therapy and prophylaxis of: · Osteoporosis: Without regular standing / vertical stress of the
bones, bone density can steadily decrease. This leads to the risk of bone fractures and other complications. · Decubitus prophylaxis: Whilst standing the pressure on the ischial tuberosity is reduced to a minimum. · Skeletal misalignments / back pain: Whilst seated the spinal column is naturally elongated (kyphosis/hunchback). Standing facilitates a natural spinal position and therefore better upper body stability. This prevents the risk of a scoliosis. · Muscular atrophy: Without regular leg movement, the risk of muscle shortening increases (muscular atrophy) and consequently contractures may develop. Regular, self-standing training helps as movement therapy, thereby avoiding contractures and preventing possible associated pains and expensive operations. · Tonus regulation of spasticity: Frequent standing helps to reduce spasticity and facilitates seat movement and positioning in the wheelchair or bed. This supports a peaceful sleep. · Deeper respiration: Straightening the upper body through standing decreases the pressure of the abdominal cavity on the lungs. This improves and deepens respiration, facilitates breathing and can also help reduce the risk of pneumonia. · Gastrointestinal complications: As with breathing, standing also reduces the pressure on the digestive system. This facilitates digestion (intestinal peristalsis) and helps with the improvement of bowl and bladder functions.
Contraindications
The wheelchair shall not be used in case of: · Perception disorder · Imbalance · Seating disability

3.2 Area of application: The user environment
This wheelchair has been designed to accommodate both indoor and outdoor use (EN12184 (2014) Class B). When driving the wheelchair outdoors, drive only on paved roads, pavements, footpaths and bicycle paths. The speed must be adapted to suit the environment.
WARNING! · Drive carefully on slippery roads resulting from rain, ice or
snow! · You are required to turn on the lights in case of limited
visibility. · When driving at higher speeds you must be extra careful.
Select a lower maximum speed indoors, on the pavement and in pedestrian areas. · Do not drive off high obstacles. · Do not attach a weight to the wheelchair without the approval of a qualified specialist. This may negatively affect the stability of the product.

4.0 Setting up the wheelchair
Sunrise Medical wheelchairs can be adjusted according to specific needs of the user. In this, we make a distinction between wheelchair settings and wheelchair seating adjustment options. Settings are carried out once, the first time the wheelchair is going to be used. They must be executed by qualified specialist, unless explicitly stated otherwise. Seating adjustment options can be carried out by the user. These adjustment options do not require the use of tools.
4.1 Seating system
The extensive settings with respect to the seating system allow for optimum support of the body (& Seating system). The following setting options are possible: 1. Seat depth and seat width 2. Backrest angle 3. Armrest height/width 4. Lower leg length 5. Angle of the footplate 6. Legrest angle
4.2 Seat Depth
CAUTION! For optimum comfort and driving experience of your FWD powerchair, recommended seat depth relationship to user weight is: 75kg user weight up to a seat depth of 44cm 90kg user weight up to a seat depth of 50cm, 160kg user weight up to a seat depth of 56cm
Where chair configuration allows, a recommended backrest angle of 95° and a seat tilt of 5° will further improve the driving experience.
4.3 Seat height
Depending on the specific circumstances of the user of the wheelchair the seat height can be set. Every optional seat height lies within the Rated slope as described in EN12184 (2014) Class B. Lowering the seat height has a positive influence on the (dynamic) stability.

4.4 Centre of gravity
DANGER! Adjusting the centre of gravity on a powered wheelchair is both physically demanding and safety critical. Sunrise Medical recommends that this adjustment is only performed by a service agent/dealer approved by Sunrise Medical.
4.5 Controller height and depth (& Seating system).
4.6 Control system programme This wheelchair is equipped with a control system that can be programmed by adjusting settings within the system. This is a specialized job that needs training and can only be adjusted with professional software. The end user is not allowed to adjust these settings.
DANGER! The incorrect setting of the parameters for the control system may result in very dangerous situations. Settings must be made by qualified specialists.

WARNING! Increasing the seat height has a negative effect on dynamic stability.

Perform the following daily check routine before driving:
CAUTION! Checking wheels & tyres · Are the tyres sufficiently inflated (Chapter 8.2).
Checking batteries · Before using your vehicle for the very first time, please charge
your batteries for a period of 24 hours. · Are the batteries sufficiently charged? The green lights on the
battery indicator must be on. & Controller
Checking lights and indicators · Ensure that the lights and indicators are functioning correctly
and lens are clean before going outdoors at night. & Controller
Checking remote · With the control system switched off, check that the joystick
is not bent or damaged and that it returns to the centre when you push and release it.

Checking free wheel lever · Ensure that the free wheel lever has been set to `drive’.
(Chapter 5.8).
Checking seating · Ensure that all the cushions are in place. · Make sure that the backrest is correctly fitted and adjusted. · Visually inspect the wheelchair to make sure the leg rests,
armrests etc. are correctly positioned and attached to the wheelchair and all fasteners are sufficiently tightened. · Ensure that the seat interface knobs are tight and secure.
Checking clothing on potential entrapment · When operating the wheelchair, ensure that your clothing
does not hamper the wheelchair (i.e. too long). Before use, always check if your clothing or accessories do not come into contact with the wheels or and other moving and/or rotating parts in which they could become entangled.
Checking weather conditions · In winter, batteries have a reduced capacity. During a period
of light frost, the capacity is roughly 75% of the normal capacity. At temperatures below -5°C this will be roughly 50%. This will reduce your range of action.

5.2 Making a transfer Sunrise Medical recommend that you consult your healthcare professional for assistance in developing your personal front or side transfer technique to best suit your needs and avoid any personal injury.
Preparing for a forward transfer:
DANGER! It is dangerous to transfer on your own. It requires good balance and agility. Be aware that there is a point during every transfer when the seating system seat is not below you.
For further instructions and warnings about making a transfer, please refer to & Seating system.

5.3 Driving the wheelchair
WARNING · The user of the wheelchair is at all times completely
responsible for complying with the applicable local safety regulations and guidelines.
Powered wheelchairs are driven by means of a controller. There is a separate user manual for the controller and this was included with this wheelchair (& Controller). 1. Switch on the controller. 2. Set the maximum speed limit. 3. Move the joystick in the direction in which you would like
to go. 4. Moving the joystick even further forwards will cause the
wheelchair to drive faster.
Rear view mirror
WARNING · To avoid injury to people around you please be aware that
the mirror protrudes outside the space envelope of the chair and could cause injury to someone when driving past. · The mirror must be used on models at speeds over 6 kph on roads according to local law. · Always make sure that when using the mirror that it is clean and unbroken so that it does not impair your visibility.

ENGLISH

Road use Please show the utmost consideration for the other traffic on the road.
DANGER! · Remember that the last thing a car or lorry driver expects to
see is a wheelchair backing off the kerb into the road. · If in any doubt, do not risk crossing the road until you are
certain that it is safe. · Always cross the road as quickly as possible, there may be
other traffic. · Do not drive over anything that could cause punctures in
the tyres. · Ensure that there are no objects in your path that could
possibly become lodged in your chair mechanism or in the spokes of the rear wheels. This could cause the chair to come to a sudden stop. · Riding over drains or grids could cause the wheelchair castors or wheels to become lodged, causing the chair to come to a sudden stop.
Adverse conditions: Please be aware that when driving your wheelchair in adverse conditions, e.g. on wet grass, mud, ice, snow or other slippery surfaces, you may experience a reduction in the grip and traction of your wheelchair.
DANGER! · We recommend you take extra precautions in these
conditions, particularly on hills and slopes; your wheelchair could become unstable or skid causing possible injury. · When you are using a Powered Wheelchair take extra care with loose or long items of clothing. Moving parts, such as wheels, can be potentially dangerous or even fatal if clothing becomes entangled.
NOTE : Extreme variances in temperature may trigger the self protect mechanism in the control system. If this occurs the control system will temporarily shut down to prevent damage to the electronics or the wheelchair.

5.5 Braking & Emergency stop
There are three ways to stop your wheelchair: · Simplest and safest way to stop the wheelchair is to release
the joystick. This will bring the chair to a halt in a controlled manner. · Pulling back the joystick will break the chair abruptly with a fast stop. · Switching the control system off whilst the chair is in motion will also bring the chair to a halt.
WARNING! · Switching the control system off is only to be used in an
emergency situation as the stopping action is very abrupt. · Never try to stop or slow this seating system with the wheel
locks (if applicable). Wheel locks are designed to pre-vent the system from moving when stopped. They are not brakes.

5.4 Curves
DANGER! Full speed turns should not be attempted. If you need to turn sharply you must reduce your speed with the joystick or speed setting. This is particularly important when travelling across or down a slope. Disregarding this advice could lead to your wheelchair tipping over.

WARNING! Use indicators when changing direction.

Q700 M/M HD/F/R/UP-M/UP-F Rev.G

ENGLISH

5.6 Driving on a slope
Your wheelchair has been designed and tested to allow its use on slopes or gradients of up to: Q700 M: 6° (10.5%) in standard configuration. Q700 M HD: 6° (10.5%) in standard configuration. Q700 F: 6° (10.5%) in standard configuration. Q700 R: 6° (10.5%) in standard configuration. Q700-UP M: 6° (10.5%) in standard configuration. Q700-UP F: 6° (10.5%) in standard configuration.
However, you have the option of adjusting your position with the seat elevator, tilt in space, powered recline or powered centre mount leg rest or a combination of these options.
DANGER! · Elevating, tilting and leg rest adjustments can affect the
wheelchair centre of gravity. Under certain conditions this might cause instability that could lead to unintentional tipping. It may be necessary to carry out a risk assessment if the wheelchair is adjusted to extremes. · Stopping distances on slopes can be significantly longer than on level ground.
DANGER! · In certain circumstances your wheelchair could become
unstable. · Before attempting to climb or descend a slope or a kerb,
caution should be taken when using weight shift options (e.g. powered , recline or standing), of the seat and/or your body for a counter balance weight. · To improve stability lean forward when driving uphill, with the seat and back in an upright position. · Alternatively sit in an upright position when travelling in a forward, downhill direction or and/or recline the seat backwards. · We strongly recommend that you return the seat and back to their home positions before attempting to climb or descend a slope. Failure to do this may cause the wheelchair to become unstable. · If you are in any doubt about the capabilities of your wheelchair on a slope then do not attempt to drive up or down the slope/kerb; try to find an alternative route.

Gradients: ascents:
WARNING! · When going uphill, keep the chair moving. · Steer by carefully moving the joystick forwards making
slight Left and Right adjustments as you go. · If you have stopped on a hill, you should start slowly. · If necessary lean forward.
Gradients: descents: On descents, it is important not to let the wheelchair accelerate beyond its normal level of ground speed.
DANGER! · Proceed slowly down steep descents, (below the speed of
5kph) and stop if you fell anxious. · If the chair picks up speed, centre the joystick to its home
position to allow it to slow, or to stop. · Restart slowly and do not allow the speed to increase above
what you are comfortable with.
NOTE: · The controller has the benefit of a logic system that will
help compensate when driving along a camber or up a hill. This is an added safety feature on your wheelchair. In addition of course, you may control the wheelchair speed by using the speed control.

5.7 Obstacles & kerbs:

DANGER!
· Never descend a kerb backwards. · Do not attempt to climb or descend a series of steps or use
on escalators. It is unsafe to do so and could cause personal injury or damage the chair. This wheelchair has only been designed to climb a single step or kerb. · We recommend that users with upper trunk instability wear restraint systems to keep the upright body position during descending or ascending ramps, kerbs or obstacles.

Kerb climbing: Always approach a kerb at 90° (Fig. 5.1).

· Approach the kerb or step, head on at a 90° angle. · Drive forwards slowly and steadily. · Stop the chair as soon as the castor wheels touch the kerb. · Apply sufficient power to the motors to lift the front of
the chair up onto the kerb or step and then apply slightly more power until the drive wheels climb the kerb or step smoothly. · As far as possible, keep the joystick in the straight forward position.

The maximum obstacle or kerb climbing height is:

Q700 M:

100 mm. (Max. user weight 100 kg)

Q700 M HD: Q700 F:

75 mm. 70 mm.

Q700 R:

80 mm.

Q700 R + kerbclimber: 100 mm.

Q700-UP M:

80 mm.

Q700-UP F:

75 mm.

The approach speed and process can vary depending on your wheelchair drive type and castor wheel choice.

Dismounting the kerb. DANGER!
Move the chair slowly and carefully in a forward direction until both front wheels are on the edge of the kerb, again in a 90° position to the kerb. Drive as slowly as possible off the kerb with the drive wheels. Don’t stop the chair during decent of the kerb. You will feel more secure if you can lean backwards, but if you can’t, don’t worry, the wheelchair is stable. As long as you stay within its limitation, you will be quite safe. All powered seating options need to be in home position. Your powered leg rests may need to be adjusted to give enough clearance to mount or dismount the kerb. We recommend to use the lap strap to feel more secure during declining the kerb. For extra protection we recommend to fit every chair with the leg rests.

5.8 Pushing the wheelchair
The wheelchair can be moved by pushing. In order to do so, the motors must be disengaged using a freewheel lever. This feature was developed for the attendants of wheelchair users and also functions as an emergency freewheel lever. The freewheel lever has 2 positions
1. For driving the wheelchair. (Fig. 5.2).
Drive’ position: Turn the lever so that the lever at the drive wheel side is pointing upwards. 2\. For disengaging the motors. (Fig. 5.3 – Fig.5.4). Push’ position: Turn the lever so that the lever at the drive wheel side is pointing downwards.
DANGER! · The free wheel lever should only be operated by the attendant and
never by the user. · A user may never be left unattended while the wheelchair is in
push’. · Never set the lever to thepush’ position on a slope! When the
freewheel lever is set to push’, the automatic parking brake is deactivated. This makes it possible for the wheelchair to roll down the slope. · The automatic parking brake only works is the lever is set todrive’ position. · When the wheelchair is no longer being pushed, the freewheel lever should be set to `drive’ immediately. · To manually push the system you must release the motor brakes. · Do not engage or disengage motor brakes unless power to the system is off. · Make sure you have full control over the system when you release the motor brakes. When you do so the system will not have brakes. · Make sure the system is on level ground before you release the motor brakes. · Propel this system by the push handles only. They provide secure points for you to hold the rear of the system to prevent a fall or tip-over. · Check to make sure push handle grips will not rotate or slip off.

6.0 Batteries, charging and range
6.1 Batteries
Batteries are the power source for almost all of the modern mobility products available today. The design of batteries used in mobility products is significantly different to the batteries used to start a car for example. Car batteries are designed to release a large amount of power over a short period of time, whilst mobility batteries (commonly called deep cycle batteries) release their power evenly, over a long period of time. Therefore, due to the lower production volumes and increased technological requirements, mobility batteries are typically more expensive. Commonly two 12 volt batteries are used together in a mobility product, giving a total voltage of 24 volts. The size of the battery (e.g. its available power) is expressed in amps per hour e.g. 70amp/hr. The higher the number, the bigger the battery size, weight and, potentially, the greater the distance you can travel. Sunrise Medical only fit as standard maintenance free batteries into these types of wheelchairs. This type of battery uses a method of carrying the electrolyte commonly referred to as `gel’, that is held within the battery case. As the name implies, no maintenance is required other than regular charging. You can safely transport this type of battery without fear of acid spilling. Furthermore, they are approved for transportation on aircraft, trains and ships.
CAUTION!
· Do not fit car batteries to the wheelchair. Fit only deep cycle, maintenance free mobility batteries.
· When the batteries are worn out, take them to the local authority disposal point.
· Do not expose any part of the battery to direct heat (i.e. naked flame, gas fire).
· Be extra cautious to reduce the risk of dropping a metal tool onto the battery. It could spark or short circuit the battery or other electrical parts that may cause an explosion. Also take off all personal metal effects and dangling objects when working on the battery.
· Return the batteries back to Sunrise Medical or directly to the battery manufacturer for recycling, when they no longer hold charge.
· The battery terminals need to be checked regularly for signs of corrosion. If any corrosion is apparent, then clean the terminals completely and re- grease the terminal using Vaseline petroleum jelly, not ordinary grease. Ensure that the terminal nut and bolt, cable clip and exposed cable are completely covered with jelly.
DANGER!
· Do not expose any part of the battery to direct heat (i.e. naked flame, gas fire).
· Be extra cautious to reduce the risk of dropping a metal tool onto the battery. It could spark or short circuit the battery or other electrical parts that may cause an explosion. Also take off all personal metal effects and dangling objects when working on the battery.

DANGER! · Do not, under any circumstances, tamper with the batteries.
If in any doubt contact your local Sunrise Medical authorised dealer. · Avoid contact with acid on damaged sealed type batteries or wet batteries. · Battery acid can cause burns to the skin as well as damage to floors, furniture and your wheelchair. · If battery acid comes into contact with the skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. · If battery acid comes into contact with the eye, immediately flood the eye with running cold water for at least 10 minutes and seek medical attention immediately. · Acid spills can be neutralised with baking soda and water. · Take care to keep batteries upright at all times, especially when transporting your wheelchair.
Safety cut-outs In the event of a short circuit there are several safety systems built into your wheelchair to safeguard your electrical circuits, (Fig. 6.1). 1. Fusible 100A links are connected into the battery harnesses
to protect the batteries and wiring.
2. 15A auxiliary power circuit fuses for auxiliary modules and seating power supply.
To replace them contact your Sunrise Medical authorised dealer, who will also diagnose the original fault.

6.2 Charging batteries:
& Battery charger: Please read the owner’s manual with the charger supplied carefully. The general procedures and effects for the interference with the chair and the batteries remain valid.
Battery care plan
Below is set out a battery care plan for maintenance free batteries. This has been agreed between Sunrise Medical and the battery manufacturers, to enable you to get the best out of your batteries. If a different care plan is followed, this may result in lower than expected performance from your mobility vehicle.
· Only use an approved Sunrise Medical charger compatible with the vehicle to be charged.
· Charge your batteries every night, regardless of the amount of use your mobility device has had during the day.
· Do not interrupt the charging cycle. · If your mobility device is not required for use, it should
remain connected to the charger until required. This will not damage your batteries, as long as the mains socket/plug is left switched on. Turning the mains socket/plug off, but leaving the mains cable plugged in will eventually deplete your battery charge. · If you leave your vehicle for an extended period (more than 15 days) charge the batteries fully and then disconnect the main battery lead. · Failure to allow for recharge will damage the batteries and can lead to shortened distances and premature failure. · Do not top up the charge of your batteries during the day. Wait until the evening for a full overnight charge. · As a general rule, maintenance free batteries take longer to fully charge than “wet” lead acid batteries. · The battery terminals need to be checked regularly for signs of corrosion. If any corrosion is apparent, then clean the terminals completely and re-grease the terminal using Vaseline petroleum jelly, not ordinary grease. Ensure that the terminal nut and bolt, cable clip and exposed cable are completely covered with jelly. · Following all the points above should result in a healthier battery, greater range for the vehicle user and a longer life for your batteries.

Connecting the battery charger
Procedure for connecting the charger and charging · Switch off the wheelchair controller. & Controller: · Connect the battery charger round output plug to the
charging socket on the front of the joystick module. & Controller: · Connect the charger to the mains supply by means of the mains plug and switch on.
For more information about the charger operation, consult the instructions provided with the charger. & BATTERY CHARGER. Depending on how depleted the batteries are, it may take up to 12 hours to fully charge the batteries again.
DANGER!
· Make sure the cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
· Do not rest a battery on top of the charger. · Do not stand the charger on a carpet or other soft surface.
Always place it on a hard flat surface. · Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow,
been dropped or otherwise damaged in any way. Take it to a qualified technician. · Never place the charger directly above the battery being charged; gases from the battery will corrode and damage the charger. · Never charge a frozen battery. A fully charged battery will rarely freeze but the electrolyte of a discharged battery can freeze at -9° Centigrade. Any battery that is suspected of being frozen should be thawed completely before charging. · Never sit with the charger on your lap when charging your batteries · The charger casing will get hot during its normal operation. · Do not disassemble charger; only have it repaired by the manufacturers. Incorrect re-assembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire. · To reduce the risk of an electric shock, unplug the charger from the outlet before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Turning off the controls will not reduce the risk. · Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of battery or charger. · You should not charge your batteries in outdoor conditions. · It is advised to use a smoke detector in the charging area.

ENGLISH

Battery Charger
The external charger has been designed to charge two 12V Gel type batteries connected in series (= 24 V).
The chargers have features which prevent hazards or accidents occurring as a result of connecting batteries the wrong way round, overheating caused by fault conditions or attempting to charge wrong voltage batteries. The majority of charger sizes are electrically double insulated and no earth connection is required. Some larger sizes may be electrically earthed and this will be clearly stated on the label.
If your charger has been specified for use in Continental Europe it will contain a European two pin plug which does not have a fuse. In this case the fuse is located in the fascia panel of the charger.
Country specific information: UK
The 3 pin UK mains input plug contains a replaceable fuse. The rating of this fuse is shown on the charger label.
DANGER! · As with all mains powered electrical equipment, always
replace blown fuses with the same type and size of fuse as specified. · Fitting of different fuses can result in an increased fire risk, damage to the charger or failure of the charger to operate properly.

6.3 The range of your vehicle:
Please refer to the specification tables at the back of this manual for Energy Consumption, (Maximum Range), information.
Most manufacturers of mobility products state the range of their vehicles either in the sales literature or within the Owner’s Manual. The range stated sometimes differs from manufacturer to manufacturer even though the battery size is the same. Sunrise Medical measure the range of their vehicles in a consistent and uniform manner, but variances still occur due to motor efficiencies and overall product load weight.
The range figures are calculated to I.S.O. Standard 7176. Part 4: Wheelchair Energy Consumption Theoretical Range.
This test is carried out in controlled conditions with new, fully charged batteries, on a level test surface and a user weight of 100 kg. The range figures stated should be seen as a theoretical maximum and could be reduced if any single, or combination, of the following circumstances occur: · User weight heavier than 100 kg. · Batteries whose age and condition are less than perfect. · The terrain is difficult e.g. very hilly, sloping, muddy ground,
gravel, grass, snow and ice. · The vehicle climbs kerbs regularly. · The ambient temperature is very hot or very cold. · Incorrect tyre pressures in one or more tyres. · Lots of start/stop driving. · Also thick pile carpets within the home can affect range. · Use of additional power consumption options (e.g. light,
actuators, etc.)
The battery sizes available on each Sunrise Medical product should give sufficient range to cope with the majority of customer’s lifestyles.

6.4 Battery warranty:
Battery warranties are subject to periods set by the manufacturers. However, most of these warranties are subject to a wear and tear clause, and if you genuinely wear out your batteries in 6 months, it will not be possible to obtain a replacement under warranty.

Securing the wheelchair in the docking station:
Make sure that the leg rests are not colliding with the ramp or the docking station when entering the vehicle. 1. Manoeuvre the wheelchair slowly and in a uniform direction
over the docking station. The lock plate under the wheelchair helps to guide the wheelchair into place in the docking station. When the lock plate is fully engaged in the docking station, a spring-action locking pin automatically secures the lock plate. 2. The docking station is equipped with a control switch that indicates whether the lock plate is correctly secured in the docking station. As soon as the lock plate comes into contact with the locking pin, a warning tone will sound (a highpitched howl), and the red diode/lamp (LED) in the control panel will light up until the lock plate is either fully engaged or else the wheelchair is removed from the docking station. 3. As an indication that the wheelchair is properly secured, the warning tone will cease, the red diode in the control panel will go out and the green diode lamp (LED) will light up. 4. Do not forget to buckle up for driving.
Release from the docking station
1. When the vehicle has been brought to a halt, remove the safety belt.
2. To unlock commence by driving the wheelchair forward to release pressure on the lock pin and then press the red release button in the control panel. The locking pin will be triggered/released for approx. 5 seconds, after which the locking pin is automatically locked/activated again. Do not attempt to reverse out of the docking station until the red LED on the control module, which indicates the unlock position, has been illuminated. WARNING! Attempting to reverse the wheelchair before the red LED has been illuminated will result in blocking the docking stations lock mechanism, which makes it impossible to reverse. If this happens repeat above unlocking procedure.
3. Move the wheelchair away from the docking station within this 5-second period.

Manual release in case of electrical failure
1. In the event of electrical failure, a manual emergency release is located at the front edge of the docking station. Move wheelchair forward to release pressure on the lock pin and push the red release arm to one side and hold it there while the wheelchair reverses out of the docking station.
2. A cable-activated manual operating lever can also be fitted (accessory). The red release arm must pushed to one side and should be held there whilst the wheelchair moves away.
3. If the described manual release procedures fails, an emergency release tool made from red plastic comes with each docking station.
Move wheelchair forward to release pressure on the lock pin and place the emergency release tool in the gap between the locking plate and the docking station. Push the release tool forward until the locking pin will has been forced down – after which the wheelchair can be reversed out of the docking station.

7.3 The wheelchair as a passenger seat
A wheelchair secured in a vehicle will not provide the equivalent level of safety and security as a vehicle seating system. Sunrise Medical recommends that the user transfers to the vehicle seating and uses the vehicle-installed restraint system wherever possible. Sunrise Medical recognizes that it 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:
DANGER!
· 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.
· Wherever possible remove and stow safely away from the wheelchair all auxiliary equipment, e.g. : crutches, loose cushions, tray tables, etc. i. Removed and secured separately in the vehicle, or ii. Secured to the wheelchair, but with energy-absorbing padding placed between the table and the user.
· Articulating/elevating leg rest should not be used in the elevated position when the wheelchair and user are being transported.
· If applicable: Reclining backrests should be returned to an upright position.
· If applicable: Seat elevators should be in the lowest position. · If applicable: The manual brakes must be firmly applied.

Positioning the occupant restraint
DANGER!
· Belt restraints should make full contact with the shoulder, chest and pelvis and pelvic belts should be positioned low on the pelvis near the thigh- abdominal junction (meeting the requirements specified in ISO 7176-19:2008).
· 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° to the horizontal.
· A steeper (greater) angle within the preferred zone is desirable i.e. closer to, but never exceeding 75° degrees (Fig. 7.23). i. The upper torso restraint belt must fit over the shoulder and across the chest as illustrated (Fig. 7.23). Restraint belts must be adjusted as tightly as possible consistent with user comfort.
· Restraint belt webbing must not be twisted when in use. · Care should be taken when applying the occupant restraint to
position the seatbelt buckle so that the release button will not be contacted by wheelchair components during a crash.

Occupant restraint Instruction

DANGER!

· Use a 3-point occupant restraint system to secure the occupant.
· 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.
· Restraints should be mounted to the appropriate vehicle pillar and should not be held away from the body by wheelchair components such as armrest or wheels (Fig. 7.22).
· Use a suitable positioned headrest when being transported

Passenger with a user weight < 22 kg.
When the user being transported is a child, less than 22 kg 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 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.

For use with Dahl Docking system only (Fig. 7.24) When using wheelchair with Dahl Docking system, the floor anchorage points for occupant restraint should be located 10-60 mm outside wheels, on each side.

7.4 Special transport requirements
Using your wheelchair on the train. Before you travel, please contact the train operator. They will be able to supply details of any special requirements/ instructions. We advise you to check the following: · Is there a suitable and intended “wheelchair” area in the
train for wheelchair users (with adequate turning space to manoeuvre)? · Is there a suitable or designated area on the platform for wheelchair users (with adequate turning space to manoeuvre)? · Is there suitable boarding access available to allow you to access the railway carriage and the intended “wheelchair” area? · Is the boarding access suitable for the combined mass of the wheelchair and the occupant? · Make sure the slope of the boarding access is not greater than the dynamic safe slope. (See Section 10) · Any obstacles or thresholds should not exceed the max kerb climbing capability of your wheelchair. (See Section 10)
Most train operators will provide assistance provided that arrangements have been made in advance. We suggest you have you Owner’s Manual ready when planning your journey and contacted them.
WARNING!
· While driving on a boat or train, make sure that you use driving Profile 1, as this is the standard profile where the GYRO is deactivated. The continuous movement of a boat or train, disrupts the GYRO system and the driving characteristics of your wheelchair.

8.2 Tyre maintenance and pressures
8.2.1 Tyre pressure
CAUTION! If pneumatic tyres are fitted to your wheelchair it is important to regularly check the air pressure and for signs of wear. The maximum tyre pressures are listed in Section 8.3, if in doubt check the markings on the side of the wheelchair tyre for guidance. NOTE: It is important that drive wheels are inflated to equal pressures as a pair, and likewise the rear. The inflator pump provides the safest method of inflating your wheelchair tyres and the pressure can be checked with a standard motor vehicle pressure gauge.
DANGER! · Do not inflate beyond the maximum allowed tyre pressure.
8.2.2 Tyre wear When inspecting the tyres for signs of wear, look for significant scuff marks, cuts and a diminished tyre tread. Tyres will need to be changed when the tread cannot be seen over the complete surface of the tyre, (Fig.8.1).

IMPORTANT: Check all parts, including wheels and studs and mounting faces of hub and wheels, for dirt, rust or damage. Use a wire brush to remove dirt and rust, replace any damaged parts.
Careless installation of wheels on a vehicle is a major cause of tyre and wheel problems. Proper installation, including nut torque, is essential to safe, economical, trouble free service. Use only the specified sizes and types of studs and nuts.
Tighten the nuts a quarter turn at a time following the crisscross sequence shown in Fig. 8.5. This is very important. Failure to tighten the nuts in this criss-cross sequence will cause a misalignment of the wheel. Continue until all nuts are tightened to the manufacturer’s specified torque.
CAUTION: Improper torque can cause distortion, fatigue cracks or alignment problems. After running the vehicle for a short distance, check the nuts for tightness. Parts will usually seat naturally and torque on nuts will drop. Retighten all nuts to the specified torque.
The information above is for a tyre professional and should not be attempted by individuals not properly trained & equipped.

8.2.4 Removing the castor wheels (M base) (Fig.8.11). · Use a 17.0 mm spanner/socket to undo the axle bolt. · Remove the nyloc nut.
Removing the castor wheels (F/R base) (Fig.8.12) · Use a 13.0 mm wrench and 5 mm Allen key to undo loosen

2.0 Sécurité
Respectez toujours scrupuleusement les consignes apparaissant en regard des symboles d’avertissement. Le non-respect des instructions peut causer des blessures physiques, l’endommagement du fauteuil roulant ou la dégradation de l’environnement. Dans la mesure du possible, les informations relatives à la sécurité sont fournies dans le chapitre consacré à ce sujet.
2.1 Symboles et étiquettes apposés sur le produit
Les signes, symboles et instructions apposés sur le fauteuil roulant font partie de l’ensemble des mesures de sécurité. Ils ne doivent jamais être recouverts, ni retirés. Ils doivent rester en place et être clairement lisibles tout au long de la durée de vie du fauteuil roulant. Tout signe, symbole et instruction illisible ou endommagé doit être immédiatement remplacé ou réparé. Pour toute assistance, contactez votre revendeur. Fig. 2.1.

2.2 Sécurité : Température
AVERTISSEMENT !
· Évitez tout contact physique avec les moteurs du fauteuil roulant. Les moteurs étant en mouvement permanent durant l’utilisation du fauteuil roulant, ils peuvent atteindre des températures élevées. Une fois éteints, les moteurs refroidissent lentement. Tout contact physique peut entraîner des brûlures. Après utilisation du fauteuil, laissez les moteurs refroidir pendant au moins 30 min.
· Pendant la non-utilisation de votre fauteuil, évitez de le laisser exposer à la lumière directe du soleil pendant des périodes prolongées. Certains composants du fauteuil, comme le siège, le dossier et les accoudoirs peuvent chauffer s’ils restent exposés au soleil pendant trop longtemps, risquant de provoquer des brûlures ou des réactions allergiques cutanées.
· La surface du rembourrage du fauteuil (accoudoir et/ou appui-mollet) peut devenir chaude ou froide selon les conditions ambiantes. Elle risque ainsi de provoquer des brûlures, des lésions cutanées ou des réactions allergiques cutanées.
