9.0 Maintenance and care
• If your wheelchair should ever get wet, please dry it afterwards.
• A small amount of sewing-machine oil should be applied to
quick-release axles approximately every 8 weeks. Depending
on the frequency and type of use, we recommend taking your
wheelchair to your authorised dealer every 6 months to have it
inspected by trained personnel.
• If you want to store the wheelchair for a long period of time,
then no further measures are required. Make sure that the
wheelchair is stored at room temperature in a dry place which
is protected from strong sunlight. Before using it again, the
wheelchair should be checked by an authorised dealer.
CAUTION!
Sand and sea water (or salt in the winter) can damage the
bearings of the front and rear wheels. Clean the wheelchair
thoroughly after exposure.
The following parts can be removed and sent back to the
manufacturer/dealer for repair:
• Rear wheels
• Armrest
• Anti-Tip tubes
These components are available as spare parts. For further
information, please see the spare parts catalogue.
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.
