INTRODUCTION
We thank you for the confidence you
have placed in our company by choos-
ing a wheelchair from this series.
The wheelchair of the Mex model se-
ries fulfils the desire for mobility and
more independence by way of a new
styling of the proven MEYRA technol-
ogy.
With all equipment and their accesso-
ries the wheelchair offers die respec-
tive adaptation to your disability.
Like any other vehicle, a wheelchair is
a technical aid. It requires explanation,
a little care and holds dangers when
used improperly. The correct handling
must therefore be learned.
This manual is to help you get accus-
tomed to the handling of the wheel-
chair as well as to prevent accidents.
☞Note:
Please note that the illustrated
equipment variants can deviate
from your model.
We have therefore also listed chapters
with options that might not be appli-
cable for your vehicle.
!Attention:
Read and observe the following
documentation belonging to the
wheelchair before first operation:
– this operating manual,
– the safety and general handling
instructions < Mechanical wheel-
chairs >.
☞Note:
Children have to read the docu-
mentation belonging to the wheel-
chair together with their parents
respectively a supervisor or attend-
ant before first use.
