Ottobock Skippi Gebrauchsanweisung Seite 107

CAUTION
Risk of accidents and injury due to getting into or out of
the wheelchair incorrectly. The wheelchair controls must
be switched off while getting into and out of the wheelchair.
The footrests and armrests must not be used for getting
into or out of the wheelchair since they are incapable of
bearing the full weight of the body.
CAUTION
Risk of accident and injury if the wheelchair starts roll-
ing. Releasing the wheel lock may result in uncontrolled
rolling of the power wheelchair. Ensure that the wheel lock
is engaged when you park the power wheelchair.
CAUTION
Risk of accidents due to improper clothing. Ottobock
advises users to wear light-coloured clothing or clothing
with reflectors during hours of darkness.
CAUTION
Risk of accidents due to bad tyres. Visually inspect the
tyres for sufficient tread depth and correct pressure before
each use.

Avoid parking outside and in direct sunlight (UV radiation)
since this causes the tyres to age quickly. As a result, the
tread surface hardens and corner pieces break out of the
tread. Ottobock recommends replacing the tyres at least
every 2 years regardless of the amount of wear.
If the wheelchair is parked for an extended period of time
or the tyres overheat (e.g. in the vicinity of radiators or in
case of exposure to strong sunlight behind glass), the tyres
may become permanently deformed. Therefore always en-
sure that the wheelchair is far enough away from sources
of heat, move your wheelchair from time to time or jack the
wheelchair up when storing it.
CAUTION
Risk of injury due to improper use of the seat adjust-
ment. Overloading the seat height adjustment actuators
may cause the spindle nut to break, causing the seat to
sag or the backrest to flip back. The guidelines provided
below for actuator activation times must be observed.
