Cleaning and Disinfecting
Caution: Clean the product regularly and when it becomes soiled.
Recommendation: When washing by hand, use room-temperature water.
Wheelchair Frame and Accessories
Cautions:
- DO NOT wash the wheelchair with a pressurized stream of water.
- DO NOT expose the wheelchair to corrosive agents or cleaners.
To Clean: Wipe clean using a damp cloth and mild soap. Wipe until all visible soil has been removed from the wheelchair. Rinse with clean water.
Wipe dry with a clean cloth and then allow to air dry completely.
Sling Seat and Back Upholstery
Caution: DO NOT machine wash or machine dry the sling seat or back upholstery.
To Clean: Regularly hand wash the sling seat and back upholstery using water and a mild detergent. While cleaning, carefully check for sagging,
rips or tears and replace if necessary. Allow to air dry completely before using the wheelchair.
IMPORTANT! After the sling seat is dry, check the tension while seated in the wheelchair to make sure the sling does not touch the crosstube
beneath the sling seat.

Permobil TiLite CR1 Instructions for Use
Recommendation: When washing by hand, use room-temperature water.
Hand wash
Air dry
• Check that all wheels can spin freely and are not difficult to rotate. Repeat for the caster forks.
• On a level surface, check that all four wheels touch at the same time. If one of the caster wheels is floating, take the
wheelchair to a qualified equipment provider for adjustment.
• Make sure the caster axle area between the inside face of the fork and the caster is free from any blockages or foreign
objects which can get wound around the axle. Remove any blockages or foreign objects, like thread or hair, that may be
found. The easiest way to do this is to remove the caster from the fork.
• Check the condition of the caster bearings to make sure they are spinning freely and are free from dirt and rust.
• Maintenance intervals can be extended by avoiding rolling through standing water. If casters get wet, dry them off and
apply a light coating of "dry" silicone or Teflon-based lubricant. Routinely perform this maintenance to continue the
optimal performance of the wheelchair.
• Check the tire pressure. The wheelchair will perform the best when the tires are at their optimal level of inflation. If tire
pressure is low, add air.
• If a wheel still feels sluggish, check that the rear axles are free and clear of any contaminants and check the wheel
bearings to make sure they are spinning freely and are free from dirt and rust. Just like the caster bearings, if exposed to
moisture, dry them off and apply a light coating of "dry" silicone or Teflon-based lubricant.
• Check the alignment of the wheels to make sure the toeing is correct and that the wheels are not rubbing against the
wheelchair or side guards. This can be an indication of an off-center camber tube, or that one of the axle clamps has
moved and the camber tube is no longer perpendicular to the wheelchair frame.
• Check that the tires are inflated to the proper pressure. If tire pressure is low, fill to the max recommended pressure
setting on the tire sidewall.
• The wheel lock may have slid inside the wheel lock clamp. If so, loosen the adjustment screw and slide the lock forward
or backwards for the desired tension, and retighten the screw to the recommended torque setting.
• Check that the lock is perpendicular to the tire and hasn't rotated in the clamp, preventing full engagement with the tire.
• If the seat sling tension needs to be adjusted, follow the instructions in the Operation Instructions section.
• Check that everything at the back pivot points and along the side guard tracks are free and clear of obstructions.
• Make sure the side guards are parallel with the back (perpendicular to the ground) and do not have any side to side
movement. If the side guards are noticeable loose, check for loose or missing hardware.
• Push handles should be securely fastened to the back vertical tubes. If any movement in the handle becomes
noticeable, please check that the attachment hardware is properly tightened.
• Unusual sounds or excessive movement in the back or side guards can be an indicator of loose hardware. Check and
tighten any loose hardware.
• Make sure the side guards are securely attached to the wheelchair frame and back.
