First of all we want to thank you for putting your trust in us by selecting one of our

wheelchair.
The expected lifetime of your wheelchair is strongly influenced by the care and maintenance
of the wheelchair.
This manual will help you get acquainted with the operation of your wheelchair.
Following the user instructions and the maintenance instructions are an essential part of the
guarantee.
This manual reflects the latest product developments. Vermeiren has the right to introduce

1.1 Intended Use
The wheelchair is intended for people with walking difficulties or no walking abilities.
The wheelchair is designed to transport 1 person.
The wheelchair is suited for indoor and outdoor use.
The user can propel the wheelchair by himself or have the wheelchair pushed by an
attendant.
The different types of fittings and accessories, and the modular construction allow full use by
persons disabled by:
paralysis
loss of limbs (leg amputation)
limb defects or deformations
stiff or damaged joints
heart insuffiencies and poor blood circulation
balance disturbances
cachexia (decrease in muscle)
and also for aged persons.
When providing for individual requirements:
body size and weight (max. 120kg (264.6 lb))
physical and psychological condition
residential circumstances
environment
should be taken into consideration.
Your wheelchair should only be used on surfaces where all four wheels are touching the
ground and where there is sufficient contact to propel the wheels equally.
You should practice for use on uneven surfaces (cobblestones, etc.), slopes, curves and to
get past obstacles (kerbs, etc.).
The wheelchair should not be used as a ladder, nor is it a transport for heavy or hot objects.
When used on mats, carpeted floors or loose floor coverings, the floor covering can get
damaged.
Use only Vermeiren approved accessories.
The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by the lack of or improper service or as a
result of not following instructions from this manual.
Compliance with the user and maintenance instructions are an essential part of the
guarantee conditions.

!" When getting into and out of the wheelchair, do not stand on the footplates. These
should be folded up beforehand, or the leg supports should be swung completely
outwards out of the way.
!" Investigate the effects of shifting the centre of gravity on the behavior of the wheelchair,
for example on up or down gradients, on laterally sloping ground, or when overcoming
obstacles. Obtain support from an attendant.
