Quickie Xenon2 FF Notice D'utilisation page 12

• 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 hand rims,
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,
leg rests, wheel locks and side guard) 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 dependant on the chair
configuration, the users abilities and the style of riding.
As the users 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 Ant-tips 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.
WARNING!
CHOKING HAZARD – This mobility aid uses small parts
which under certain circumstances may present a
choking hazard to young children.
NOTE: Further information and safety instructions can
be provided by your authorized dealer.
XENON 2 FF
Note :
• The effect of the wheel locks as well as the general driving
characteristics are dependant on tyre pressure. The
wheelchair is significantly lighter and easier to manoeuvre
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.
• 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.
• Always be careful with your fingers when working or
adjusting the wheelchair!
