The Range Of Your Vehicle; Battery Warranty - Sunrise Medical QUICKIE Q700-UP M Manuel D'utilisation

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.
