10.2 Information on re-use

The power wheelchair is suitable for re-use.
Similar to second-hand machines or cars, products that are
being re-used are subject to increased strain. Features and
functions must not change in a way that could endanger
patients or other persons within the product's life cycle.
Based on market observations and the current state of tech-
nology, the manufacturer has calculated that the power
wheelchair can be used for a period of 5 years, provided
that it is used properly and that the service and maintenance
instructions are observed. Periods during which the product
is stored at the dealer or with the third party payer are not
included in this period. It should be clearly pointed out, how-
ever, that the power wheelchair is a reliable product far be-
yond this defined period of time, provided that it is cared for
and maintained appropriately.
In cases of re-use, the corresponding product must first be
thoroughly cleaned and disinfected.
Subsequently, the product must be examined by an author-
ised specialist to check the condition, wear and possible
damages.
