• Do not operate the freewheel device whilst seated in the wheelchair.
• The freewheel device should only be operated by a person who has the strength and agility to be able to fully maneuver the wheelchair safely, during freewheel.

Transportation

5.1 Transport of the wheelchair in a car Getting in and out of the vehicle

DANGER!

• 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 occupant, the wheelchair and accessories.
• Use a ramp (or lifting device) suitable for the entire weight of the wheelchair (including user) for entering the vehicle.
• The wheelchair should be secured in a forward facing direction. This wheelchair is approved for use in cars and meets the requirements for forward facing transport and head on collisions. The wheelchair has not been tested for other positions in a vehicle (Fig. 5.1).

CAUTION!

• 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.
• Ease of access to, and maneuverability in, motor vehicles can be significantly affected by wheelchair size and turning radius; smaller wheelchairs and/ or wheelchairs with a shorter turning radius will generally provide greater ease  of vehicle access and maneuverability to a forward-facing position.

5.2 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.

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 (Fig. 5.5) 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. 5.7).
• Use a suitable positioned headrest when being transported in a wheelchair.
• 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 7176-19:2008 or SAE J2249.

Positioning the occupant restraint
DANGER!

• 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. 5.10).
  i. The upper torso restraint belt must fit over the shoulder and across the chest as illustrated (Fig. 5.9). 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.

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 r 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.
5.3 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 maneuver)?
• Is there a suitable or designated area on the platform for wheelchair users (with adequate turning space to maneuver)?
• Is there suitable boarding access available to allow you to access the railway carriage and the intended “wheelchair” area?

• Exceeding the weight limit will void the warranty Wheelchair motors:

6.4 Hot surfaces:
WARNING!
After prolonged use, the motors will produce heat, which is radiated through the motors’ outer casing. Do not touch the motors’ outer casing for at least 30 minutes after using the wheelchair, to allow it to cool.
WARNING!
Not only motors can become hot during the operation of the chair, the upholstery material and armrests may heat up when standing in the sun.
DANGER!
6.5 Road caution:

• Please show the utmost consideration for the other traffic on the road.
• 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.

WARNING!
6.6 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. We recommend you take  extra precautions in these conditions, particularly on hills and slopes; your wheelchair could become unstable or skid causing possible injury. 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 chair.
• When you are using a Powered Scooter or 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.

WARNING!
6.7 Ramps:

• When using a ramp, please ensure that it is capable of taking the combined weight of the power chair and yourself.
• If a ramp is being used to load a chair into a vehicle, please ensure the ramp is properly secured to the vehicle.
• Always approach the ramp head-on and exercise caution.
• Please ensure your ramp is suitable for the product you are transporting.

WARNING!
Maximum ramp angle is defined in Section 16 Specification Sheets
6.8 Transfer to and from the chair:
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.
WARNING!
6.9 Anti tips:

• Make sure that anti tips are not damaged or worn before using your chair.
• Check the anti tips are functioning correctly on a regular basis.
• Attendants must be aware of the location of the anti tips to prevent feet being trapped underneath causing injury.
• Attendants – Do not stand on the anti tips, this could cause the wheelchair to become unstable.

WARNING!
6.10 Use on a slope:
Your wheelchair has been designed and tested to allow its use on slopes or gradients as defined in Section 16 Specification Sheets.

• Before attempting to climb or descend a slope or a kerb, caution should be taken when using weight shift options (e.g. powered recline) of the seat where fitted 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 recline the seat backwards. We strongly recommend that you return back to an upright lowered position 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.

WARNING!
6.11 Gradients: ascents:

• When going uphill, keep the chair moving.
• Steer by moving the joystick from side to side.
• If you have stopped on a hill, you should start slowly.
• On a RWD chair, if necessary lean forward to prevent the tendency for the front wheels to lift.

WARNING!
6.12 Gradients: descents:

• On descents, it is important not to let the wheelchair accelerate beyond its normal level of ground speed.
• It is safer to proceed slowly down steep descents (below the speed of 5kph) and stop, if any anxiety arises regarding directional control.
• If the chair picks up speed, centre the control to slow it or to stop all forward movement, then restart slowly and do not allow the speed to increase.

WARNING!
6.13 Lap belt:
Before using your wheelchair ensure the Lap belt is worn and correctly adjusted before use.
The lap belt is fitted to the wheelchair as shown in the fitting instructions in section 5.7. It is important that the belt is secured around the back of the wheelchair. The straps can be fed between the armrest and backrest. Adjust the belt  position so that the buckles are in the centre of the seat. See section 5.7.
Adjust the lap belt to suit the user’s needs as follows:
To increase the belt length:
Feed the belt through slide adjusters and male buckle to provide more belt length, (Fig.6.1).

To reduce the belt length:
Feed the belt back through male buckle and slide adjusters, (Fig.6.2).Ensure that there is no excess belt material looping out of the male buckle, (Fig.6.3)

When fastened check space between the lap belt and the user, when correctly adjusted it should be possible to insert the flat of the hand between the lap belt and the user, (Fig.6.4).Generally the Lap Belt should be fixed so that the straps sit at an angle of approximately 45°, and when correctly adjusted should not allow user to slip down in the seat, (Fig.6.5).

To fasten buckle:
Firmly push the male buckle into female buckle, (Fig.6.6).

To release belt:

When the levers are pushed inwards, the drive  wheel will automatically connect with the propulsion mechanism. Follow this procedure with both wheels.

8.6. Tyre pressure:
Where pneumatic tyres are fitted, It is important to check inflation pressure regularly, along with the state of wear of the tyres. The maximum pressure recommended for the front wheels is 36 psi (2.5 bars), while for the rear wheels it is 40 psi (2.7 bars).
WARNING!
Never inflate the tyres with a service station air pump. It is recommended that you use a manual pump or a pressure regulator (manometer).
8.7 Transfers (Fig.8.4):
Always position the wheelchair close to the place where the transfer will be carried out. It is important that the controller is turned OFF, so that the wheelchair will not move throughout the procedure. The wheelchair is highly stable owing to its weight. Do not stand up on the footrests at any time during the transfer. 8.8 Slopes (Fig.8.5):
The following instructions explain how to maneuver correctly on steep ramps and slopes, especially in the course of descent.

WARNING!

• If your chair has a powered seat tilt, powered recline or manual recline back, we strongly recommend that you bring the backrest into an upright position and set the seat tilt to the level position.
• If you stop on an incline, start off slowly and, if necessary, lean forward to counteract the tendency of the front wheels to rise.
• On descents it is important not to allow the wheelchair to exceed normal speed. Indeed, the safest course is to go down steep hills slowly and to stop immediately if you have any doubts about the steering.
• If the chair gathers speed, move the joystick to its central position to slow down, or stop completely.
• Start off again slowly and do not allow speed to increase. Make sure the automatic brakes are engaged.
• Climbing or descending a slope with the automatic brakes disengaged can be dangerous.

As guidance for safe use on a slope we reviewed the effect of chair stability at two user weights 75kg and maximum user weight for both the Q100R (125kg) and Q200R models (136kg).
The graphic below (Fig. 8.6) shows the range in rearward dynamic stability for Q100R and Q200R when configured in least and most stable conditions* and when tested with 75kg and maximum user weights.
Maximum user weight range is shown by solid lines.
75kg user weight range is shown by dashed lines.

• Least stable configuration defined as:
  Max seat depth (510mm), maximum seat tilt (6°) and maximum recline (12°).
  Most stable configuration defined as:
  Minimum seat depth (410mm), minimum seat tilt (0°) and minimum recline (0°).
  CAUTION!

  • These figures are meant as a guide to understand the effect of user weight and chair configuration on dynamic stability
  • Real world stability can be affected by body composition, slope surface conditions, accessories, alterations to chair programming and so forth
  • Chair may loose traction/slide before tipping on steeper slopes

8.9 Laterals (Fig.8.7-8.8)
To Adjust the Width.
Slacken screw with 4mm Allen wrench, rotate lateral and retighten screw 4-7Nm.
To Adjust the Height.
Slacken both clamps with 4mm Allen wrench. Re-position lateral, retighten clamps 5-7Nm.
WARNING!

• Laterals should only be adjusted by medically trained personnel.
• Do not hang objects from the pads or brackets.

8.10 Mounting a kerb or step (Fig. 8.9):
Always approach a kerb at 90 degrees,
For larger kerb (step) head on driving forwards slowly and steadily and always at a 90 degrees angle.
As the kerb climber or castor makes contact with the kerb (step), the wheelchair should be moving slowly. Small kerb can be climbed from a standstill.
Apply sufficient power to the motors to lift the front of the chair up onto the kerb (step) and then apply slightly more power and speed so that the drive wheels climb the kerb (step) smoothly and without hesitation. As far as possible, keep the joystick in the straight forward position.
In accordance to the ground clearance, the maximum obstacle height possible to climb is 70mm without Kerb climber and 100mm with the optional kerb climber.
WARNING!
The approach speed and process can vary depending on your wheelchair performance and castor wheel choice between the Q100R and Q200R models.
8.11 Dismounting the kerb (Fig. 8.10):

• Reverse the chair slowly and carefully until both rear wheels are on the edge of the kerb, again in a 90 degrees position to the kerb.
• Reverse as slowly as possible off the kerb with the rear wheels. You will feel more secure if you can lean forward, but if you can’t, don’t worry, the wheelchair is extremely stable. As long as you stay within its limitation, you will be quite safe.
• The front of the chair will naturally follow down the kerb as you continue to drive slowly backwards.

VR2 Control System (Fig.7.1):

Your wheelchair is controlled by the Joystick. This regulates the power & speed of the wheelchair.
The Joystick determines the speed and direction of the wheelchair.
9.1 On/Off button:
The On/Off button applies power to the control system electronics, which in turn supply power to the wheelchair’s motors.
WARNING!
Do not use the on/off button to stop the wheelchair unless there is an emergency. (If you do you may shorten the life of the wheelchair drive components).

11.4 General battery information:
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. 55 A/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.
11.5 Maintenance-free batteries:
This type of battery uses a method of carrying the electrolyte commonly referred to as ‘gel-type’, 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.
11.6 Battery care:
Below is set out a battery care plan for maintenancefree 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.
11.7 Maintenance-free battery care plan:

• 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 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 (a wire brush is ideal) 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.
• Return the batteries back to Sunrise Medical or directly to the battery manufacturer for recycling, when they no longer hold charge.

11.8 General charger information:
The external charger has been designed to charge two 12 V Gel type batteries connected in series (= 24 V).
11.9 Charger Specification:
WARNING!
Only use chargers for cyclic batteries, Gel-Type with 24V/8A output nominal max.
For more information about the charger operation, consult the instructions provided with the charger.
Note: If the charger is not connected to the control it does not output charge voltage.
WARNING!
It is possible that the charger’s metallic box may slightly raise in temperature due to use.
11.10 Charger safety features:
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.
The 3 pin UK mains input plug contains a replaceable fuse. The rating of this fuse is shown on the charger label.
WARNING!
Always replace with the same type and size of fuse as specified. Fitting of different fuses can result in damage to the charger or failure of the charger to operate properly.
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.
11.11 Procedure for connecting the charger and charging:

• The wheelchair can be charged via the charger socket at the front of the VR2 remote control, (Fig. 11.8).
• Ensure the VR2 is switched off.
• First, connect the charger to the VR2.
• Then, connect the charger to the mains supply by means of the mains plug and switch on.
• Do not leave the charger connected to the battery with the mains disconnected or switched off. This could result in damage to your battery being caused by deep discharge over a period of time.
• Always switch off at the mains before disconnecting the batteries.

11.12 Charger safety and caution notes:
WARNING!

• The charger is designed for indoor use. Do not use outdoors or expose to rain, snow, spray or moisture.
• When buying replacement batteries or charger always consult your Sunrise Medical service agent.
• The charger may be used with other brands of Gel type batteries, subject to written confirmation from the Technical Department of Sunrise Medical.

11.13 The range of your vehicle:
The batteries give the chair a range of approximately 30km depending on powerchair model Q100R or Q200R. 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 kerb 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.
11.14 Common battery statements:
Over the years, battery technology has moved forward but, unfortunately, some of the advice given on battery care has not. This has resulted in a number of confused and at times contradictory instructions on the ‘best’ way to care for your batteries.
This section will help to dispel some of these myths and legends.
To reduce the risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting the charger. Make sure the cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to damage or  stress. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of an improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If any extension cord must be used, make sure the pins on the plug of the extension cord are the same number, size and shape as those of the plug on the charger; and that the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition.

Adjustments:

12.1 Adjustment of the footrest (Fig. 12.1.1 & 12.1.2):
To adjust the height of a footrest:
Depending on footrest type, loosen the screw using either a 4mm allen wrench or an 11mm socket and set the footrest at the height desired, then tighten the screw in the hole.
Note: Make sure that the screws are tightened securely.

12.2 Inner Or Outer Width Adjustment of the footrests:
Using an optional kit the width between the footrests can be made 4cm larger or smaller than standard. An instruction sheet is included in the kit.

12.3 Adjustment of the armrests:
Height adjustment (Fig. 12.3):
Loosen cap screw (arrowed), liftarmpad to desired height, tighten cap screw to a torque of 3-7Nm.

12.4 Seat width adjustment (Fig. 12.4):
To adjust the width between the armrests, use a size 5mm allen wrench to loosen the cap screws on the armrest adapter retainers, which are located on the side frame below the armrests, and pull the armrests outwards or inwards to  achieve the desired position. Tighten screws to a torque of 3-7Nm.

12.5 Seat Centre of Gravity Adjustment:
The Q200R Configurable product has the added feature of Seat forward/rearward adjustment. This can be used to adjust the centre of gravity by moving the seat/user position relative to the base. Centre of gravity adjustment maybe necessary to both improve stability on slopes and tractions (drivability) for certain types of users.
WARNING! Adjustments to the centre of gravity must ONLY be carried out by qualified Rehab engineers that have been trained and  approved. Therefore instructions of how to make such adjustments are deliberately NOT included within this manual so they are only available to those qualified. Incorrect adjustment may lead serious lack of product stability and a risk  of tipping or sliding which can result in serious injury.
12.6 Seat depth adjustments: (Fig. 12.6).
Remove the 2 bolts on the backrest brackets 1 for each side of the frame, using a 6mm Allen key and 13.0mm spanner. Move the backrest into the seat depth position required. Re-assemble bolts and tighten to a torque of 17-20Nm. To  compensate for the armrest position, both the sideguard and the arm pad are adjustable.
There are 5 Seat depths; 410 to 510mm in 25mm steps.

12.7 Control Adjustment (Fig. 12.7):
The control can be adjusted to various positions by pushing it along the armrest. The control can be moved by turning the lever below the arm pad anti- clockwise, reposition the controller and secure by turning the lever clockwise to  tighten.
WARNING!

• Do not replace the joystick knob with any unauthorised item. It may cause hazardous operation and loss of control of the chair.
• It is important that the joystick boot is replaced if it is torn or brittle; failure to do so could cause substance damage to the controller and unexpected movement of the chair.
• Ensure that you always have comfortable access to the controls whilst the chair is moving and make sure that the controller is fixed securely to the chair.

12.8 Dual/Attendant control (Where fitted)
WARNING!

• Ensure that you set the speed of the attendant control to a speed that you can comfortably follow.
• Always turn off the power to the controller when leaving the user in the chair. (See sections 9.10 – 9.14).

12.9 Parallel swing-away control (Fig.12.8):
WARNING!

• Before adjusting the swing-away arm, switch off the controller to avoid accidental displacement of the joystick which would cause unwanted movement of your wheelchair.
• Keep your fingers and clothing, etc. clear while operating the swing-away mechanism.
•  Be aware that the width of your chair has increased if the swing-away arm is out and you may not get between certain obstacles.
• Do not hang any items on or over the parallel swing-away remote assembly as this could damage the swing-away mechanism.
• When transferring to and from the wheelchair do not use the remote as a means of support.
• Keep fingers, clothing, etc. clear of the swing-away mechanism at all times.
• Ensure the power is switched off while adjusting the parallel swing-away arm.
• Only operate the wheelchair at low manoeuvring speed when the parallel swing-away is in use, (Fig.12.7).

12.10 Programming:
When the chair leaves the factory, the parameters of the controller are set to default. However, if any alterations are required, then you should contact your dealer, where a specialist can carry out this work.
Note: A programmer or a PC-based software program with the appropriate connecting lead are required to program the wheelchair.
WARNING!
Never attempt to programme the wheelchair yourself.
WARNING!
Programming the controller of the wheelchair is only allowed through authorised personnel trained by Sunrise Medical. Incorrect controller settings could cause driving outside the safe limits and could result in damage or injury.

Cleaning:

13.1 Cleaning General:

• The wheelchair should be wiped over once per week with a slightly damp, not wet, cloth and any fluff or dust that has accumulated around the motors should be blown or dusted away.
• Make sure that you dry all parts of your wheelchair if it becomes wet or damp after cleaning or if it is used in a wet or damp atmosphere.
• It is important that should the wheelchair be used by more than one person it is cleaned thoroughly to ensure there is no cross infection. You should use a proprietary disinfectant for this task. Please pay attention to the manufacturer`s instructions of the disinfectant you are using.
• Inspect the upholstery/seating for tears, dents, wearing or slackening of upholstery particularly near to metal as this could result in poor posture or lower levels of comfort and pressure relief.

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.

13.2 Cleaning seating:
All parts/accessories such as swing-away trays should be cleaned with a damp cloth.
All lateral supports, headrest, armrests, side-guards, calf pads, lap belts and kneepads should be cleaned with a damp cloth.
CAUTION!
Do not use a hose or a pressure washer to clean your chair.
13.3 Cleaning control system:
Clean the control system and the joystick with a cloth dampened with diluted detergent. Be careful when cleaning the joystick.
CAUTION!
Never use abrasive or spirit based cleaners.
13.4 Specialty controls:
Where fitted Ensure that joysticks (all variants) are cleaned with a mild disinfectant and a cleaning cloth to avoid any cross infection possibilities.
WARNING:
Ensure the controller is switched off before cleaning.

Shipping & Storage Requirements:

14.1 Storage temperature & humidity:
Storage Temperature: Min: -40ºC Max: 65ºC
