Safety warnings and user tips
WARNING
Batteries
Your wheelchair is supplied as standard
from Sunrise Medical with maintenance-
free batteries. These only require
regular charging.
Do not, under any circumstances,
tamper with the batteries. If in any
doubt contact your local service agent.
Do not connect the battery charger to
the mains supply until after you have
connected the charger to the
wheelchair. Before charging, please
read the relevant section in this manual.
Take care with battery acid which is very
dangerous. It can cause burns to the
skin as well as damage to floors,
furniture and your wheelchair. If it
comes into contact with the skin or
clothing, wash immediately with soap
and water. If it comes into contact with
the eye, immediately flood the eye with
running cold water for at least 10
minutes and seek medical attention
immediately. Acid can be neutralised
with baking soda and water. Take care to
keep batteries upright at all times,
especially when transporting your
wheelchair.
NOTE: Before using your vehicle
for the very first time, please
charge your batteries for a period
of 24 hours.
