I. ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
Your chair is not designed for use in a heavy rain storm, or in snowy or icy conditions.
1. Contact with water or excessive moisture can cause an electrical malfunction. The
frame, motors and other chair parts are not water-tight and may rust or corrode from
the inside. To avoid a chair failure:
•Minimise exposure of your chair to a rain storm or very wet conditions.
•Never take your chair into a shower, bath, pool or sauna.
•Do not use your chair in fresh or salt water (such as at the edge of a stream, lake or
ocean).
•Make sure battery covers are secure.
•Replace joystick boot if it becomes torn or cracked.
•Make sure all electrical connections are secure.
•Dry the chair as soon as you can if it gets wet, or if you use water to clean it.
2. Proceed slowly and use extra care if you must operate your chair on a wet or slick
surface.
•Do so only if you are sure it is safe.
•Stop if one or both main wheels lose traction. If this occurs, you may lose control
of your chair or fall.
•Never operate your chair on a slope or ramp if there is snow, ice, water or oil film
present.
•When in doubt, have someone help you.
3. When not in use, keep your chair in a clean, dry place.
Extra caution should be used when employing external switches (e.g. Buddy
Buttons) or the proximity head array as control devices. These two devices are
susceptible to malfunction when wet.
J. TERRAIN
1. This chair is designed for use on firm, even surfaces such as concrete, asphalt and
indoor flooring.
2. Do not operate your chair in sand, loose soil or over rough terrain. Doing so may
damage wheels, bearings, axles or motors, or loosen fasteners.
K. STREET USE
In most states, power chairs are not legal for use on public roads. Be alert to the danger of
motor vehicles on roads or in carparks.
1. At night, or when it is hard to see, use reflective tape on your chair and clothing.
2. At night, or when it is hard to see, always switch on your lights and use your indica-
tors when turning (light unit may not be available in all countries).
3. It may be hard for drivers to see you. Make eye contact with drivers before you pro-
ceed. When in doubt, give way until you are sure it is safe.
