PYRO START PLUS / SL

1. Preliminary remark

Dear User,
By purchasing your Bischoff & Bischoff Pyro Start Plus folding
wheelchair, you are getting a top German product which sets new
standards in terms of flexibility. The wheelchair was designed to offer
you a lot of benefits and to meet your needs. The many varied setting
options and the optimum adjustability in terms of seat height, seat
depth and lower leg length means the Pyro Start Plus can be adjusted
to your individual body size. The Pyro Start Plus is made for both indoor
and outdoor use.
The wheelchair is offered in two models, Pyro Start Plus and Pyro
Start Plus SL. The Pyro Start Plus SL permits improved adaptability for
persons of large body height due to its greater seat height, seat depth,
and backrest height.
These operating instructions intend to help you to familiarise yourself
better with the operating and the handling of your wheelchair. Before
using your new wheelchair for the first time, please read and follow
the instructions in this manual carefully. The instruction manual is an
integral and necessary part of the wheelchair. This is why you should
keep it close by and include it when passing on the wheelchair to
someone else.
For visually impaired users, this document is available as a PDF file at
