WARNING
Risk of accident and injury due to incorrect transporta-
tion in aeroplanes. Within aeroplanes, power wheelchairs
have to be transported in compliance with IATA regulations
(International Air Transport Association). To this end, the
fuse must always be removed and the battery connectors
must be insulated so that they are short-circuit-proof prior
to check-in of the power wheelchair as luggage.
Please note; batteries that are not leak proof or that might
not be transported in an upright position must be removed
and wrapped to ensure they are leak proof and short-cir-
cuit-proof.
For more information please visit the www.iata.org web-
site. Ottobock recommends directly contacting the airline
before every flight to obtain information regarding special
transport regulations.
NOTICE
Risk of damage due to improper transportation. Hoist-
ing devices used for transportation must have a sufficient

capacity. The power wheelchair must be secured in ac-
cordance with the regulations for the transportation device
used. Only attach the tensioning straps to the correspond-
ing eyebolts and given lashing points. During transport on
lifting platforms or in lifts, the wheelchair controls must be
switched off. Engage the brake. Ensure that the power
wheelchair is centred on the lifting platform. Ensure that no
parts or components of the power wheelchair are within
the danger zone.
NOTICE
Battery damage due to deep discharge. Remove the
fuse for shipping or when the power wheelchair is not be-
ing used for an extended period of time.
INFORMATION
The tyres of the power wheelchair contain chemical sub-
stances that can react with other chemical substances
(such as cleaning agents, acids).
Black tyres contain soot particles that can cause discol-
ouration and black marks. A suitable surface is required
when parking the wheelchair for extended periods of time.
