Krypton R Rev.B

• Secure your wheelchair on uneven ground or when

transferring, e.g. into a car, by using the brakes.

• If and whenever possible, during a journey in a specially

fitted vehicle for disabled people, vehicle occupants should

use the seats in the vehicle and the appropriate restraint

system. This is the only way to ensure that occupants will

have the maximum protection if there is an accident. When

using safety elements offered by SUNRISE MEDICAL and

using a specially designed safety system, lightweight

wheelchairs can be used as a seat when being transported

in a specially fitted vehicle. (See the Chapter on

“Transportation”).

• Depending on the diameter and setting of the castors, as

well as the centre of gravity setting of the wheelchair, the

castors may begin to wobble at high speeds. This can lead

to the castors being blocked and the wheelchair may tip

over. Therefore, please make sure that the castors are

adjusted correctly (see the Chapter "Castors"). In particular,

do not travel on an incline without brakes, travel at a

reduced speed. We recommend that novice users use anti-

tip tubes.

• Anti-tip tubes should prevent the chair tipping over

backwards unintentionally. Under no circumstances should

they take the place of transit wheels, and be used to

transport a person in a wheelchair with the rear wheels

removed.

• When reaching for objects (which are in front of, to the side

or behind the wheelchair) make sure that you do not lean

too far out of the wheelchair, as if you change the centre of

gravity there is a risk of tipping or rolling over. The hanging

of additional load (back pack or similar items) onto your

chair backposts can affect the rearward stability of your

chair, especially when used in combination with recliner

backrests. This can cause the chair to tip backwards

causing injury.

• Adjustments to your wheelchair, particularly to safety-

related components must be carried out by an approved

dealer. This applies to adjustments to wheel locks, anti-tip

tubes, backrest angle and height, lower leg length, COG,

lap belt, rear wheel toe-in and camber, seat height as well

as toe-in and directional stability of the castor fork.

• When using mobility accessories fitted to the wheelchair

such as handbikes, electronic power assist, etc, make sure

that your wheelchair is fitted with the appropriate castor

forks, approved for this use. Please contact your dealer if

you have any questions.

• Do not fit any unauthorized electronic equipment, powered

or mechanically operated mobility drives, hand-bike or any

other device that changes the intended use or the structure

of the wheelchair.

• Any combination with other medical devices requires the

approval of Sunrise Medical.

• Please note that in certain configurations the wheelchair

may exceed a width of 700 mm. If this is the case, under

certain circumstances, it may not be possible to use some

or all of the available escape routes from a building. It may

be more difficult or impossible to travel on public transport.

• For thigh amputees you must use anti-tip tubes.

• Before setting off, check that your tyre pressure is correct.

For rear wheels it should be at least 3.5 bar (350 kPa). The

max. pressure is indicated on the tyre. The knee-lever

brakes will only work if there is sufficient tyre pressure and

if the correct setting has been made (see the Chapter on

“Brakes”).

• If the seat and back sling are damaged, you must replace

them immediately.

• Be careful with fire, in particular with burning cigarettes.

Seat and back slings can be set alight.

• If the wheelchair is subject to direct sunlight for a long

period of time, then parts of the wheelchair (e.g. frame,

legrests, brakes and sideguard) may become hot (>41°C).

• Always make sure that the quick-release axles on the rear

wheels are set properly and lock in. If the button on the

quick-release axle is not pressed in, the rear wheel cannot

be removed.

WARNING!

• The effect of the knee-lever brake as well as the general

driving characteristics are dependent on tyre pressure. The

wheelchair is significantly lighter and easier to manoeuvre

when the rear wheels are pumped up correctly and both

wheels have the same pressure.

• Make sure that your tyres have sufficient tread! Please note

that you are subject to any and all traffic laws when driving

in public traffic.

• Always be careful with your fingers when working or

adjusting the wheelchair!
