1.5 Explanation of symbols
1.6 Safety rules
L To prevent injury and/or damage to your wheelchair, make sure that no objects
and/or body parts are caught in the spokes of the driving wheels (for 22", 24" rear
wheels).
L The parking brakes should be applied before getting into and out of the wheelchair.
L When getting into and out of the wheelchair, do not stand on the foot plates. These
should be folded up beforehand, or the leg rests should be swung completely
outwards out of the way.
L 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.
L If you want to pick up something (lying in front of, on the side, or to the rear of the
wheelchair), you should not lean too far out to avoid tipping over.
L When moving through doors, arches, etc. ensure that there is enough room at the sides
so that you do not get your hands or arms caught or crushed and that there is no
damage to the wheelchair.
L Only use your wheelchair according to regulations. For example, avoid uncontrolled
rolling against obstacles (steps, curbs, doorframes, etc) or dropping down from ledges.
The manufacturer cannot assume liability for damage caused by overloading, collision
or other improper use.

L Stairs may only be negotiated when aided by another person. If furnishings like drive-on,
ramps or lifts are available, use them.
L When moving on the public highway, you are subject to the rules of the road.
L When driving your wheelchair, you should not be under the influence of alcohol or
medicine as in the case of driving other vehicles. This also applies to indoor driving.
L When travelling outdoors, adapt your driving to weather and traffic conditions.
L When transporting the wheelchair, never pick it up by grasping removable parts
(armrests, footrests, etc.).
L To be better visible when driving in the dark, wear the brightest possible clothing or
clothes with reflectors, and check that the reflectors mounted on the sides and rear of
the wheelchair are clearly visible.
L Be careful when using possible causes of fire such as cigarettes since they may set the
seat and back covers alight.
L Never exceed the maximum load of 135 kg.
L Take care during all adjusting functions that no objects or body parts come into the area
of the adjustment as there is the risk of squashing.
L Check that the profile depth of the tyres is adequate.
L To avoid hand injury, do not push your hand between the driving wheel and the knee
lever brake when propelling your wheelchair (only for 22", 24" rear wheels with hand
rim).
L When driving outdoors, wear gloves which improve your grip on the tyre grips and
protect your fingers against dirt and heating (only for 22", 24" rear wheels with hand
rim).
L Take care when attaching the quick-assembly wheels that the axle is completely and
properly engaged (only for 22", 24" rear wheels with hand rim).
LDo not open the electric, electronic devices, because these can damage the seal and
the electric or electronic devices.
l Do not use the wheelchair in: environment where combustible or explosive gases or
vapors may be present, close to open fires or other heat sources (such as furnaces,
ovens or direct sunlight), in a humid environment or outdoors (for the electronic parts).
lDo not use the power supply as a toy or to play games.
LUse only power sockets conforming to VDE (220 V / 230 V, 50 Hz) for plugging in.
LPlugs must only be pulled out by grasping the plug itself; never pull on the cable.
LMake sure that all power cables are laid without kinks, shearing or other mechanical
damages and no mechanical strain should be placed on the cables.
LAll cables should be laid that nobody can fall over the cables.
LWe advise not to use power strip and extension cord. Use the transformer directly on
the supply socket. We advise not to use supply sockets with a time switch.
2 Use
This chapter describes the everyday use. These instructions are for the user and the
specialist dealer.
The wheelchair is delivered fully assembled by your specialist dealer. The instructions
intended for the specialist dealer on how to set up the wheelchair are given in § 3.
2.1 Remarks on electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
Your wheelchair has been tested according EN 61000-3-2 and EN 61000-3-3 for EMC-
compliance. We wish to point out that sources of electromagnetic waves are liable to create
interferences. The electronics of the wheelchair itself could affect other electric appliances
too.

Inovys II-E
2017-02
Page8
To reduce the effect of electromagnetic sources of interference, please read the following
warnings:
LWARNING: The wheelchair might disturb the operation of devices in its
environment that emit electromagnetic field.
LWARNING: The driving performance of the wheelchair can be influenced by
electromagnetic fields (e.g. electricity generators or high power sources).
LWARNING: Avoid using any portable TV or radio in the immediate environment of
your wheelchair for as long as it is turned on.
LWARNING: Avoid using any transmitter-receiver in the immediate environment of
your wheelchair for as long as it is turned on.
LWARNING: If involuntary movements or braking occur, turn off the wheelchair as
soon as it is safe to do so.
Interfering electromagnetic fields may have a negative effect on the wheelchair’s electronic
systems. These can include:
Uncontrollable behavior by the wheelchair
Unintentional movements
In the presence of very strong or enduring interfering fields, the electronic systems could
even break down entirely or suffer permanent damage.
Possible sources of radiation include:
Portable receiver and transmitter installations (receiver and transmitter with fixed
antenna)
- Transmitting and receiving sets
- Portable TV, radio systems
- Other personal transmitting devices
Mobile medium-range transmitting and receiving devices
- Fixed transmitting and receiving sets
- Fixed mobile transmitting and receiving devices
- Fixed radio, TV systems
Other home devices
- CD player
- Notebook
- Microwave oven
- Cassette recorder
- etc.
Devices like electric shavers and hair dryers will have no influence provided that they
function perfectly and their cabling be in an excellent condition. Please conform to the
operating instructions accompanying such electric instruments to ensure trouble free
operating of your wheelchair.
2.2 Carrying the wheelchair
The best way to carry the wheelchair is to make use of the wheels and roll the wheelchair.
If this is not possible (e.g. when the rear wheels are taken off for transportation in a car),
firmly grasp the frame on the front and the back. Do not use the foot or arm rests or the
wheels to grasp the wheelchair. At least two persons are required for transporting the
wheelchair.

2. Pull or push on lever .
3. Turn the footrest to the outside of the
wheelchair until the hole comes loose of the
pin from attachment point .
4. Pull the footrest upwards until the pins 
come out the holes .
2.5 Angle of footrests
LCAUTION: Risk of injury – Check that the levers are well fixated after
adjusting the angle of the footrest.
LCAUTION: Risk of clamping – Keep fingers, buckles and clothes away from the
adjusting mechanism. To adjust the angle of the footrest, only touch them at the
level of the foot plates-to avoid injury on your fingers.
LCAUTION: Risk of injury – Make sure that no objects and/or persons are inside
the swinging range of the adjust functions.

Inovys II-E

2.7 Operating the brakes
LWARNING: The brakes are not used to slow down the wheelchair during
movements – Use the brake only to prevent the wheelchair from unintended
movements.
LWARNING: Good operation of the brakes is influenced by wear and
contamination of the wheels (water, oil, mud, …) – Check the condition of the
wheels before each use.
LWARNING: The brakes are adjustable and can wear – Check the operation of the
brakes before each use.
