DANGER!

• Do not hang heavy items such as shopping bags or

backpacks, on the push handles, head rest or backrest of the

wheelchair.

• These can change the tipping point and there is a risk of

tipping backwards.

• 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.

• Only use your wheelchair properly. For example, avoid

travelling against an obstacle without braking (step, kerb

edge) or dropping down gaps.

• 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).

• 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).

• 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 wheel locks.

• 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 "Wheel locks").

• 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.

• The wheel locks have not been designed to be used as

brakes for a moving wheelchair.

• Always make use of elevators and ramps. If these are not

available, you should request the help of an attendant. They

should only grip the wheelchair at securely mounted parts.

If anti-tip tubes are fitted these must be folded away. A

wheelchair should never be lifted with an occupant; it should

only be pushed.

DANGER!

• If the seat and back sling are damaged, you must replace

them immediately.

• Do not lift or carry the wheelchair by the backtubes or the

pushhandles.

• 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.

• Be careful with fire, in particular with burning cigarettes. Seat

and back slings can be set alight.

• 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”).

• Always make sure that the quick-release axles on the rear

wheels are set properly and lock in. If the button on the

quick-release axle is not pressed in, the rear wheel cannot

be removed.

• In particular when using lightweight metal handrims, fingers

will easily become hot when braking from a high speed or on

long inclines.

• If the wheelchair is subject to direct sunlight for a long period

of time, then parts of the wheelchair (e.g. frame, legrests,

brakes and sideguard) may become hot (>41°C).

• To avoid hand injuries do not grab in between the spokes

or between the rear wheel and wheel lock when driving the

wheelchair.

• When using the chair outside, always wear leather gloves

which will increase your grip and protect the fingers from dirt

and overheating.

• Do not use the wheelchair on slopes > 10°.

• The Dynamic safe slope is dependent on the chair

configuration, the user#s 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.

• Do not use your wheelchair on muddy or icy ground.

• Do not use your wheelchair where pedestrians are not

allowed.

• With all moving parts there is a natural risk of finger traps.

Please handle with care

• The wheelchair should not be used in heavy rain, snow,

slippery, or unsound surfaces.

• Do not use the wheelchair in hazardous environments.
