Foreword
Dear Customer,
We are very happy that you have decided in favour of a high-quali-
ty product from SUNRISE MEDICAL.
This user's manual will provide numerous tips and ideas so that
your new wheelchair can become a trustworthy and reliable
partner in your life.
Maintaining close links with our customers is of great importance
to us at Sunrise Medical. We would therefore like to keep you
up-to-date with our new and current developments. Keeping close
to our customers also means fast service when you need replace-
ment parts or accessories, or just have a question about your
wheelchair - and with as little red tape as possible.
We want you to be satisfied with our products and service. Sunrise
Medical therefore constantly works at continuous development of
its products. For this reason, changes can occur in our range of
products with regard to shape, technology, and fittings. Conse-
quently, no claims can be construed from the data or pictures
contained in this user's manual.
SUNRISE MEDICAL has been awarded the ISO 9001 Certificate,
which affirms the quality of our products at every stage, from R & D
to production.
Please contact your local, authorised SUNRISE MEDICAL dealer if
you have any questions concerning the use, maintenance, or
safety of your wheelchair.
In the case that there is no authorised dealer in your area or you
have any questions, you can contact Sunrise Medical either in
writing or by telephone (contacts are mentioned on the last page).
