1.1 Safety instructions
Please follow all instructions in this manual carefully. Incorrect operation can impair important functions.
All safety instructions and other regulations must always be observed by both the patient and the user.
General
DANGER The mobility base may only be used by someone who has received an introduction and has
1. Safety
read and understood the complete instructions for use! The instruction must be given by the operator/
service provider!
DANGER The user must not have any impairments that temporarily or permanently limit attention and
judgement!
DANGER The patient must never be left unattended. Therefore, constant supervision by an adult car-
egiver (user) is required!
CAUTION The individual limitations and abilities of the patient must be taken into account at all times!
WARNING The maximum permissible load must not be exceeded (see chapter "5. Technical data")!
WARNING The mobility base is only approved for the use of one patient!
DANGER The patient must be appropriately secured against falling out without restricting their sitting
comfort!
WARNING The surfaces of the mobility base can heat up due to heat input. There is a considerable risk
of burns if the temperature exceeds 40°C! To protect the patient from burns, the device must be kept
away from heat sources (e.g. replaces) and strong sunlight!
DANGER The mobility base may only be loaded at the seat, back and foot area. Excessive loading due
to incorrect handling ( e.g. by attaching objects, supporting or leaning against etc.) can lead to a possi-
ble risk of tipping over!
DANGER In case of extreme adjustments and unfavourable body posture (e.g. due to the patient being
lifted too far out of the mobility base), there is an increased risk of tipping over! It is therefore very im-
portant that the patient is positioned in the therapy chair by means of any straps!
CAUTION When sitting down or standing up, do not put excessive strain on the footrest!
There is then an increased danger of tipping over!
CAUTION Additional safety instructions of individual points under "4. Unit settings" must be strictly
observed!
WARNING Never carry or transport the unit with the patient sitting in it!
CAUTION For transport or storage of the unit, plug-in and unattached parts should be packed sepa-
rately. This is the only way to ensure that the product and parts are protected from external inuences!
CAUTION It is essential to keep any packaging lm away from children! Otherwise there is a
considerable risk of suocation!
6 from 60

1024081_EN_1 Subject to technical changes and printing errors.
CAUTION Repair and adjustment work may only be carried out without the patient sitting in the unit!
CAUTION Before each use of the unit, all settings must be made in a patient-friendly manner. Before
each use, check that all parts are securely fastened!
CAUTION All settings must be checked at regular intervals. All screw connections must be checked for
tightness. Wheels must be checked regularly!
CAUTION Never use force during adjustment work, as improper handling can cause damage to the
unit!
WARNING Any combinations of the mobility base with third-party products are not permitted and
can be dangerous. The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage and/or complications due to such
combinations!
WARNING Any electrical components of the unit must not be opened or changed without the permis-
sion of the manufacturer!
WARNING In the event of defects, damage or modications, the unit must not be used and must there-
fore be withdrawn from circulation!
WARNING In case of irregularities of the electric drive, the unit must not be used any further!
DANGER If unusual odours or noises occur when charging or using the electric drive, the unit must not
be used any longer! The unit must be taken out of circulation!
CAUTION During all repair and adjustment work, attention must be paid to the danger of pinching and
crushing!
CAUTION Repair and inspection work may only be carried out by Rehatec® GmbH or operators/care
providers!
CAUTION Maximum adjustment ranges must not be exceeded. It must be possible to guarantee a
secure connection of the parts!
CAUTION Maintenance must be carried out at the prescribed intervals by the operator/care provider (see
chapter "2.4.3 Maintenance intervals").

Environment/ Operation
WARNING The use of the mobility base is only possible at an ambient temperature of 15°C to 35°C!
CAUTION The mobility base must be protected from moisture!
DANGER The mobility base may only be used on rm, level and horizontal ground!
CAUTION The mobility base may only be stored indoors at an ambient temperature of 10° to 50°C!
WARNING The mobility base must be secured against rolling away by applying all parking brakes!
WARNING A possible risk of tipping and slipping due to a change in the suboor condition (wood, carpet,
stone oor and tiles, etc.) must be taken into account!
WARNING If manoeuvrability is limited on soft ground, e.g. on carpeted oors, there is an increased risk of
tipping over!
DANGER Pushing the mobility base over a laterally sloping oor may only be done without a patient!
CAUTION If the mobility base comes into contact with moisture, it must not be used. Immediate drying must
then be ensured (e.g. dry with an absorbent cloth)!
CAUTION If the unit is used in combination with an electric drive, it must not be cleaned with a pressure washer
or steam cleaner!
DANGER Do not immerse any electrical components in water!
DANGER To avoid the risk of re, the device must never be used near or in connection with ammable substan-
ces and re-causing objects!
CAUTION Upholstery, wooden and plastic parts installed on the unit are not ame-retardant. It is therefore
essential that the mobility base is kept away from smoking utensils, replaces, chimney pipes, cookers and
other room heaters.
DANGER Additional objects on the mobility base, e.g. cloths, cushions, blankets, paper and magazines, toys,
etc. can increase the risk of re!
DANGER Never use the mobility base as a climbing aid!
DANGER Children who are playing must not pull themselves up on the mobility base! There is a considerable
risk of tipping over!
