VII. WARNINGS: COMPONENTS & OPTIONS
Note: If you use parts or make changes not author-
ized by Sunrise it may create a safety hazard and
will void the Warranty.
A. ARMRESTS
Armrests flip back and cannot be used to lift chair
or the seat.
1. Never lift this chair by its armrests.
2. Lift this chair only by non-detachable parts of the main frame.
B. BATTERIES
1. Only Sunrise authorized batteries should be used in this device.
2. To prevent an acid spill, avoid puncturing the batteries.
3. Never smoke or hold an open flame near batteries. They are a
known
explosion hazard.
4. Read all of section X Batteries before attempting to change or
charge batteries.
5. Always remove batteries using straps or handle provided. Pinched
fingers may occur if the batteries are removed by grasping the bat-
tery casings.
C. CUSHIONS
1. Quickie/Sterling Comfort seats are designed for comfort, not specifical-
ly for the relief of pressure.
2. If you suffer from pressure sores, or if you are at risk that they will
occur, you may need a special seat system or a device to control
your posture.
Consult your doctor, nurse or therapist to find out if you need
such a device for your well-being.
D. FASTENERS
Many of the screws, bolts and nuts on this chair are
special high-strength fasteners. Use of improper
fasteners may cause your chair to fail.
1. Only use fasteners recommended by Sunrise.
2. If fasteners become loose, tighten them as soon as you can.
3. Over- or under-tightened fasteners may fail or cause damage to chair
parts.
See Section VIII, "Set-Up, Adjustment & Use", for proper torque
settings.
E. FOOTPLATE
1. At the lowest point, the foot platform should be at least 1.375" off
the ground. If set too LOW, it may "hang up" on obstacles you can
expect to find in normal use. This may cause the chair to stop sud-
denly and tip forward.
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 the footrest.
Avoid putting weight on the footplate, as the chair may tip for-
ward.

Flip the footplate back.
F. MOTOR LOCKS
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
1. Never use the ON/OFF switch to stop the chair except in an emer-
gency. 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. PNEUMATIC TIRES WITH FLAT-FREE INSERTS
1. Do not use this chair if the tires or inserts show any sign of damage.
2. A damaged insert may cause the chair to veer to one side and result in
a loss of control.
3. Driving over sharp objects may cause damage to the tires and/or
inserts.
I. SEATING SYSTEMS
1. Use of a seating system not approved by Sunrise may alter the cen-
ter of balance of this chair. This may cause a fall or tip-over.
2. Never change the seating system of your chair unless you consult
your supplier first.
J. UPHOLSTERY FABRIC
1. Replace worn or torn fabric of the seat as soon as you can. If you fail to
do so, the seat may fail and cause you to fall. Worn fabrics may increase
the potential for a fire hazard.
2. Fabric will deteriorate with age and use. Look for fraying, thin spots,
or stretching of fabric at rivet holes. Replace fabric as required.
3. Be aware that washing may reduce flame retardation of the fabric.
K. WIRING
Never pull on cables directly. This can result in
wires breaking inside the connector or harness. To
remove a plug or connector, always grasp the plug
or connector itself.
