2. Remove the fuses on the bottom of the battery packs.

Replacing the tyres/inner tubes

INFORMATION
Direct sunlight (UV light) causes the tyres to age prema-
turely. As a result, the tread surface hardens and corner
pieces break out of the tread.
INFORMATION
Avoid parking the wheelchair outdoors whenever possible.
The tyres should be replaced every 2 years regardless of
wear and tear. 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.
