6.2. Check before use

6.2.1. Brake check

Every time you use the wheelchair check the brake system. Move forward
slowly and release the joystick. The wheelchair must come to a stop in
the normal manner. When it is at a standstill the mechanical brake
must lock with an audible click. If you detect unusual brake behaviour,
inform your dealer immediately and do not use the wheelchair. The
motor brake operates correctly if you cannot push the wheelchair when
it is switched off. However, if it can be moved, the electromagnetic
brake is faulty. Do not use the wheelchair if this is the case. Contact
your dealer immediately.
6.2.2. Checking lights, indicators
and horn
Before moving off in the wheelchair always check the operation of
the lighting system, the indicators and horn. If you press the button
and there is no response from the equipment, inform your dealer
immediately and do not use the wheelchair.

6.2.3. Checking the tyres

Before moving off in the wheelchair always check that the tyres are
undamaged and the tyre pressure is adequate. If the pressure is too
low, the tyres must be pumped up. Check the tyre tread depth at least
once a month. It should be at least 1 mm. Defective or worn tyres must
be replaced by the dealer.

6.3. Batteries

The wheelchair is equipped with maintenance-free gel batteries
whose fluid level does not need to be checked. If you do not use your
wheelchair for an extended period, the batteries should be charged
every two months, otherwise they may be destroyed by deep discharge.
Make a habit of checking the battery status display on the control
every time before using your wheelchair. If the battery status display
shows only the red LEDs, do not travel long distances and connect the
battery charger to the wheelchair
as soon as possible (VR2 control). We recommend charging the battery
after every time the wheelchair is used.

6.3.1. Charging

Charging for the first time:
To charge the batteries to their maximum capacity proceed as follows:
• Discharge the factory-charged batteries until the LED display
shows two bars.
• Charge the batteries as described below (approx. 16 hours).
• Discharge the batteries again to two bars on the LED indicator.
• Finally charge the batteries as described.
Use only approved battery chargers to charge
the batteries (see Technical Data). Follow the
instructions for use of the battery charger.
