MAINTAINING YOUR ELOFLEX

Unlike a car, you don't have to send in your Eloflex electric wheelchair for regular servicing. However, regular maintenance can significantly extend its lifetime and enhance performance. Here are a few basic tips and guidelines.

TAKE CARE OF YOUR ELOFLEX

Taking good care of your Eloflex not only ensures that it will last longer – it also improves handling, extends the driving range and minimizes the risk of problems.

General tips and guidelines

Regularly clean your Eloflex, but never rinse it with running water or a high-pressure washer. Instead, use a damp cloth to wipe it clean.
Always dry your Eloflex when you get home after trips in wet conditions.
Recharge the batteries every three months if you do not use your Eloflex on a regular basis.
Store your Eloflex indoors in a dry and frost-free environment.

To do every three months

Periodically check and pump up the air pressure in your rear wheels (at least once every three months). The air pressure should be 2.5 kg.

To do once a year

Remove the swivel wheels (front wheels) and clean the hub remove any built up hair and dirt.
Inspect all the screws on your Eloflex and tighten them if they are loose.
Remove and wash the cover of your cushion, if necessary, and clean the backrest cover as well.
