V. EMI (ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE)
V. EMI (ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE)
WARNING
Heed all warnings to reduce the risk of unintended brake
release or chair movement:
1. Beware of the danger from hand-held transceivers. (A
“transceiver” is a device that both sends and receives radio
wave signals). Never turn on or use a hand-held transceiver
while power to your chair is on. Use extra care if you
believe that such a device may be in use near your chair.
2. Be aware of nearby radio or TV stations, and avoid coming
close to them.
3. If unintended movement occurs, turn your chair off as soon
as it is safe to do so.
A. WHAT IS MI?
WARNING
1. MI means: electromagnetic ( M) interference (I). MI comes
from radio wave sources such as radio transmitters and
transceivers.
2. There are a number of sources of intense MI in your daily
environment. Some of these are obvious and easy to avoid.
Others are not, and you may not be able to avoid them.
3. Powered wheelchairs may be susceptible to electromagnetic
interference ( MI) emitted from sources such as radio sta-
tions, TV stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, two
way radios, and cellular phones.
4. MI can also be produced by conducted sources or electro-
static discharge ( SD).
B. WHAT FF CT CAN MI HAV ?
WARNING
1. MI can cause your chair, without warning, to:
• Release its brakes
• Move by itself
• Move in unintended directions
If any of these occurs, it could result in severe injury to you or
others.
2. MI can damage the control system of your chair. This could
create a safety hazard, and lead to costly repairs.
C. SOURC S OF MI
WARNING
The sources of MI fall into three broad types:
1. Hand-Held Transceivers:
The antenna is usually mounted directly on the unit. These
include:
• Citizens band (CB) radios
• “Walkie-talkies”
• Security, fire and police radios
• Cellular phones
• Lap-top computers with phone or fax
• Other personal communication devices
NOT – These devices can transmit signals while they are on, even if not in use.
2. Medium-Range Mobile Transceivers:
These include two-way radios used in police cars, fire trucks,
ambulances and taxi cabs. The antenna is usually mounted on the
outside of the vehicle.
C. R VI W THIS MANUAL OFT N
Before using this chair you, and each person who may assist you,
should read this entire Manual and make sure to follow all instruc-
tions. Review the warnings often, until they are second nature to you.
D. WARNINGS
The word “WARNING” refers to a hazard or unsafe practice that
may cause severe injury or death to you or to other persons. The
“Warnings” are in four main sections, as follows:
1. V — MI
Here you will learn about electromagnetic interference and
how it can affect your chair.
2. VI — G N RAL WARNINGS
Here you will find a safety checklist and a summary of risks
you need to be aware of before you ride this chair.
3. VII — WARNINGS — COMPON NTS & OPTIONS
Here you will learn about your chair. Consult your supplier
and your health care professional to help you choose the
best set-up and options for your safety.
4. X — BATT RI S
Here you will learn about battery and charger safety, and
how to avoid injury.
NOT – Where they apply, you will also find “Warnings” in other sections of this
Manual.
IV. NOTICE– READ BEFORE USE
A. CHOOS TH RIGHT CHAIR & SAF TY
OPTIONS
Sunrise provides a choice of many power wheelchair styles, sizes
and adjustments to meet the needs of the rider. However, final
selection of a wheelchair rests solely with you and your health
care professional. Choosing the best chair for you depends on such
things as:
1. Your size, disability, strength, balance and coordination.
2. Your intended use, and your level of activity.
3. The types of hazards you must overcome in daily use (in
areas where you are likely to use your chair).
4. The need for options for your safety and comfort (such as
positioning belts or special seat systems).
B. ADJUST CHAIR TO YOUR ABILITY
You need to work with your doctor, nurse or therapist, and your
supplier, to fit this chair and adjust the controller settings for your
level of function and ability.
IV. NOTICE– READ BEFORE USE

F. R PORT ALL SUSP CT D MI
INCID NTS
WARNING
You should promptly report any unintended movement or
brake release. Be sure to indicate whether there was a radio
wave source near your chair at the time. Contact: Sunrise
Medical Customer Service Department at [phone].
3. Long-Range Transceivers:
These include commercial radio and TV broadcast antenna towers
and amateur (HAM) radios. Note: The following are not likely to
cause MI problems: Lap-top computers (without phone or fax),
Cordless phones, TV sets or AM/FM radios, CD or tape players.
D. DISTANC FROM TH SOURC
WARNING
M energy rapidly becomes more intense as you get closer to
the source. For this reason, MI from hand-held devices is of
special concern. (See C.1 above) A person using one of these
devices can bring high levels of M energy very close to your
chair without you knowing it.
. IMMUNITY L V L
WARNING
1. The level of M energy is measured in volts per meter
(V/m). very power wheelchair can resist MI up to a certain
level. This is called its “immunity level”.
2. The higher the immunity level, the less the risk of MI. It is
believed that a 20 V/m immunity level will protect the power
wheelchair user from the more common sources of radio
waves.
3. The Quickie Pulse with the following configuration was test-
ed and found to be immune to at least 20 V/m:
Quickie Pulse power wheelchair with a right-hand mounted
RN T controller, A.S.A.P. seat, flip-back armrests, solid flip-up
footplate and Group 22 batteries.
4. The following specialty input devices have an unknown effect on
the immunity level because they have not been tested with the
Quickie Pulse and RN T control system:
WARNING
Individuals with physical limitations requiring the use of a spe-
cialty control input device known not to be immune to
20V/m, or not known, should exercise extra care around
known sources of MI.
WARNING
There is no way to know the effect on MI if you add acces-
sories or modify this chair. Any change to your chair may
increase the risk of MI. Parts from other suppliers have
unknown MI properties.

D. CONTROLL R S TTINGS
WARNING
Be aware that you may need to adjust the controller settings
of your chair to reduce the risk of a collision, fall or tip-over.
1. Check and adjust the settings every six to twelve months (or
more often, if needed).
2. Consult your supplier to adjust the control settings immedi-
ately if you notice any change in your ability to:
• Control the joystick.
• Hold your torso erect.
• Avoid running into objects.
. MI
WARNING
Read Section V to learn about MI. To reduce the risk of unin-
tended brake release or chair movement:
1. Never turn on or use a hand-held transceiver while power
to your chair is on. Use extra care if you believe that such a
device may be in use near your chair.
2. Be aware of nearby radio or TV stations, and avoid coming
close to them.
3. If unintended movement or brake release occurs, turn your
chair off as soon as it is safe.
F. SAF TY CH CK-LIST
WARNING
Before each use of this chair:
1. Make sure the chair operates smoothly. Check for noise, vibra-
tion, or a change in ease of use. (They may indicate low tire
pressure, loose fasteners, or damage to your chair). If you
detect a problem, make sure to repair or adjust the chair.
Deferring repair or adjustment could increase the risk for
injury. Your supplier can help you find and correct the problem.
2. Make sure batteries are charged. Green lights on the con-
troller charge indicator will light up when charge is full.
Yellow lights indicate battery charge level is getting low. Red
lights indicate batteries are in immediate need of charging.
G. CHANG S & ADJUSTM NTS
WARNING
Never use non-Quickie parts or make changes to your chair
unless authorized by Sunrise. (Doing so will void the Warranty
and may create a safety hazard).
1. If you modify or adjust this chair it may increase the risk of a
fall or tip-over.

These may cause a fall or tip-over.
4. A drop-off at the bottom of a slope. (A drop-off of as small
as 3/4 inch can stop a front caster and cause the chair to tip
forward).
2. Make sure motor locks are engaged. This keeps the chair
from moving when you transfer.
3. Work with your health care professional to learn safe meth-
ods.
• Learn how to position your body and how to support
yourself during a transfer.
• Have someone help you until you are sure you can do a
safe transfer on your own.
4. Move your chair as close as you can to the seat you are
transferring to. If possible, use a transfer board.
5. Rotate the front casters until they are as far forward as
possible.
6. Be careful of the foot platform. If you can, remove or swing it
out of the way.
• Never stand on footrests when you transfer. Doing so
may damage them or cause your chair to tip.
• Make sure your feet do not “hang up” or get caught in
the space between the footrests.
7. Make sure armrests do not interfere.
8. Transfer as far back onto the seat surface as you can. This
will reduce the risk that you will miss the seat or fall.
O. R ACHING OR L ANING
WARNING
Reaching or leaning affects the center of balance of your chair. If
done improperly, a fall or tip-over is likely. When in doubt, ask for
help or use a device to extend your reach.
To Reduce the Risk of injury and/or Damage to the Chair:
1. Never reach or lean if you must shift your weight sideways
or rise up off the seat.
2. Never reach or lean if you must move forward in your seat
to do so. Always keep your buttocks in contact with the
backrest.
3. Never reach with both hands (you may not be able to catch
yourself to prevent a fall if you lose your balance).
4. Never try to pick up an object from the floor by reaching
down between your knees.
5. Never put pressure on the foot platform while reaching. This
may cause the chair to tip if you lean too far.
6. Never reach or lean over the top of the seat back. This may
damage the backrest and cause you to fall.
IF YOU MUST R ACH OR L AN, DO SO AT YOUR
OWN RISK.
Remember to:
1. Move your chair as close as you can to the object you wish
to reach.
2. Rotate the front casters until they are as far forward as pos-
sible. This makes the chair more stable.
Note– To do this: Move your chair past the object you want to reach,
then back up alongside it. Backing up will rotate the casters
forward.
3. Turn off all power to your chair. If you fail to do so, you may
touch the joystick and cause your chair to move when you
do not expect it.
4. Firmly grasp an armrest with one hand. This will help to pre-
vent a fall if the chair tips.

VI.
T. TO R DUC TH RISK OF A FALL,
TIP-OV R OR LOSS OF CONTROL
WARNING
1. Never use your chair on a slope unless you are sure you can
do so without losing traction.
2. Always go as straight up and as straight down as you can.
• Do not “cut the corner” on a slope or ramp.
• Do not turn or change direction on a slope.
3. Always stay in the center of the ramp. Make sure ramp is
wide enough that you are not at risk that a wheel may roll
off the side.
4. Lean or press your body uphill. This will help adjust for a
change in the center of balance caused by the slope.
5. Keep your chair moving at a slow, steady speed. Keep control
over the chair at all times.
• On a descent, do not let your chair accelerate beyond its
normal speed.
• If the chair picks up speed, center the joystick to slow
down or stop.
NOT – The solid state controller of your chair has a logic system that will
help control your speed when driving on a slope or uphill.
• If you stop, re-start slowly.
U. RAMPS AT HOM & WORK
WARNING
Make sure ramps meet all Building Codes for your area.
1. For your safety, have a licensed contractor build or remodel
ramp to meet all standards.
2. NOT – The proper design will vary, depending on such
things as: the length and height of the ramp; the need for an
intermediate platform; landing size; doors and the direction
of swing; and whether the ramp includes a turn or angle.
At A Minimum:
1. Open sides of ramp must have side rails to prevent your
chair from going over the edge.
2. Slope must not be steeper than one inch in height for every
one foot of slope length.
3. Ramp surface must be even, and have a non-skid surface.
4. You may need to add a section at the top or bottom to
avoid a lip or drop-off.
5. Ramp must be sturdy. Add bracing if needed, so ramp does
not “bow” when you ride on it.
V. WH LCHAIR LIFTS
WARNING
Wheelchair lifts are used in vans, buses, and buildings to help
you move from one level to another.
1. Always turn off all power to your chair when you are on a
lift. If you fail to do so, you may touch the joystick by accident
and cause your chair to drive off the platform. (Be aware that
a “roll-stop” at the end of the platform may not prevent this).
2. Make sure there is not a lip or drop-off at the top or bot-
tom of the platform. These may cause a fall or tip-over. When
in doubt, have someone help you.
3. Always secure the rider with a positioning belt to help pre-
vent falls during transfers.
4. Avoid moving forward if a wheel is “hung up” on the lip of
the ramp. Backup, reposition the caster for a more direct
approach and slowly try again.
W. CURBS & SINGL ST PS
WARNING
1. Your chair is not designed to drive up or down a curb or
step more than two and a half (2.5) inches high. Doing so
may:
• Result in a fall or tip-over.
• Damage the frame, wheels, axles or other chair parts, or
loosen fasteners.
2. To prevent a fall or tip-over, use wheelchair access ramps or
have someone help you.
3. If you must climb or descend a curb or step alone do so at
your own risk and use extreme care.
• Go as straight up or straight down as you can. Never
turn or climb or descend at an angle as a fall or tip-over
is likely.
• Proceed slowly, at a steady speed.
4. Avoid driving along curb edges and drop-offs. A minimum dis-
tance from the edge of 18” is recommended.
X. STAIRS
WARNING
Never use this chair to go up or down stairs, even with an
attendant. Doing so is likely to cause a fall or tip-over.
Y. SCALATORS
WARNING
Never take this chair on an escalator, even with an attendant.
Doing so is likely to cause a fall or tip-over.
NGLISH

119832 Rev. B

2. To avoid a trip or fall when you transfer:
• Make sure your feet do not “hang up” or get caught in
the space surrounding or in between the footrests.
• Avoid putting weight on the footplate or footrests, as the
chair may tip forward.
• Flip the footplate back or swing the footrests out of the
way, if possible.
3. Never lift this chair by the footplate or footrests. Footrests
fold or detach and will not bear the weight of this chair. Lift
this chair only by non-detachable parts of the main frame.
F. MOTOR LOCKS
WARNING
1. Do not engage or disengage motor locks unless power to
the chair is off.
2. Be aware that the chair will not have brakes when motor
locks are in the free-wheel position. (See Section F of
Operating Guide.)
3. Make sure that the person pushing the chair has full control
when motor locks are disengaged.
G. ON/OFF SWITCH
WARNING
1. Never use the ON/OFF switch to stop the chair except in
an emergency. This will result in an abrupt stop and may
cause you to fall.
2. To slow your chair to a stop, return the joystick to neutral,
before turning off the chair.
H. POSITIONING B LTS
WARNING
Use a positioning belt only to help support your posture.
Improper use of such belts may cause severe injury or death.
1. Make sure you are not at risk to slide down in the wheel-
chair seat. If this occurs, you may suffer chest compression
or suffocate due to pressure from the belt.
2. A pelvic wedge or a similar device can help you from sliding
down in the seat. Consult your health care professional to
find out if you need such a device.
3. The belt must be snug, but must not be so tight that it inter-
feres with breathing. You should be able to slide your open
hand, flat, between the belt and your stomach.
4. Make sure you can easily remove the belt in an emergency.
5. Never use a positioning belt:
• In place of a motor vehicle seat belt. In an accident or
sudden stop you may be thrown from the chair. A posi-
tioning belt will not prevent this, and further injury may
result from the belt.
• As a restraint. A restraint requires a doctor’s order.
• On a rider who is comatose or agitated.

any questions about using this power wheelchair for seating in a
motor vehicle or if a Pulse 6 is a candidate for the transit option
Whenever possible, wheelchair occupants should transfer into the
vehicle seat and use the O M (Original quipment Manufacturer)
vehicle-installed restraint system.
This wheelchair has been dynamically tested in a forward-facing
mode with a specified crash test dummy restrained by both pelvic
and upper-torso belt(s) (shoulder belts). It has been determined
that both the pelvic and upper-torso belt(s) should be used to
reduce the possibility of head and chest impacts with vehicle com-
ponents. When travelling in a motor vehicle, use only Wheelchair
Tie-down and Occupant Restraint Systems (WTORS) which meet
the requirements of the SA (Society of Automotive ngineers)
J2249 Recommended Practice.
This wheelchair has been tested for seating in a motor vehicle with
the factory-installed seating system only. This wheelchair must be
in a forward facing position during travel in a motor vehicle.
This wheelchair is equipped with wheelchair-anchored pelvic belts.
It has been dynamically tested to rely on wheelchair-anchored
pelvic belts. If desired, vehicle-anchored pelvic belts may also be
used.
It is strongly recommended that the combination of both pelvic
and upper-torso belt(s) be used to reduce the risk of injury if a
sudden stop and/or collision were to occur.
To reduce the potential of injury to vehicle occupants, wheelchair-
mounted accessories, including but not limited to IV poles, trays,
respiratory equipment, backpacks, and other personal items should
be removed from the wheelchair and secured separately.

WARNING
The angle of the pelvic belt should be within the preferred zone of 45 to 75
degrees to the horizontal or within the optional zone of 30 to 45 degrees to
the horizontal.
Steeper side-view pelvic belt angles are especially important if the pelvic
belt is intended to be used for postural support in addition to occupant
restraint in a frontal crash. Steeper angles will reduce the tendency for a
vertical gap to develop between the user and the belt due to compliance
of seat cushions and belt movement, thereby reducing the tendency for
the user to slip under the belt and for the belt to ride up on the soft
abdomen during normal use. Steeper belt angles also reduce the tendency
for upper-torso belts to pull the pelvic belt onto the abdomen during frontal
impact loading.
NOT : For this procedure, refer to figure 9
1. The pelvic belt should be worn low across the front of the pelvis.
2. Position the upper-torso belt(s) over the shoulders.
3. The belt(s) should not be held away from the body by wheelchair
components or parts, including but not limited to wheelchair arm-
rests or wheels.
