4. SAFETY

4.1 Warnings & Cautions

disregarded could lead to injury or death.

Cautions in this user manual highlight potential hazards that if

disregarded could lead to equipment damage or failure.

4.2 Risk Assessment

Before using the scooter, a risk assessment must be performed by a

competent individual to ensure the safe use of the scooter on a user-by-user

basis. It is the responsibility of users and carers to determine that they are

both mentally and physically capable of operating the scooter with minimal

risk of injury to themselves or others.

The risk assessment should include, but not be limited to:

• Entrapment

• Falling out of the scooter

• Small adults (and children)

• Individuals who lack capacity

• Users with visual, reading or cognitive disabilities

• Very active occupants

• Unauthorised people with access to the scooter

Caution

Warning

4.3 Contraindications

• The end user exceeds maximum weight capacity indicated in section 4.4

• The end user has postural support needs

• Inability to safely guide a power mobility device

• Inadequate cognitive function, judgment, vision, motor coordination or

the presence of a suciently serious spatial neglect, to preclude with

reasonable certainty, safe operation of the device

Other contraindications may be relevant which are speciﬁc to an individual

and / or care environment.

4.4 Scooter Loading

The maximum user weight of the scooter is: 115 kg (18 stone)

Maximum user weight is the sum of the user mass and the mass of ancillary

attachments or accessories. Exceeding the maximum weight capacity will void

your warranty. Drive DeVilbiss Healthcare Ltd will not be held responsible for

injury and / or damages resulting from failure to observe weight capacities.

• The maximum load is for the scooter to be occupied by one

person only. Additional weight could damage components

or destabilise the scooter, potentially causing injury.

• The scooter may only be used to transport one person at a

time. It should not be used for climbing. The backrest is not

designed to support an entire person's body weight — risk

of collapse, entrapment.

• The scooter is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to

play near or operate the scooter, as they are at risk of harm.

Warning

4.5 Training

All individuals operating the scooter are to be suitably familiar with the

functionality and limitations prior to use. It is the responsibility of the user to

ensure they are suitably trained to use the scooter and any associated parts

safely and correctly. Every eort should be made to resolve deﬁciencies and

should include consideration of retraining, falls prevention and equipment

alterations and modiﬁcations.

If these instructions for use are not deemed sucient and the need for training

is required, please contact your dealer or Drive DeVilbiss Healthcare Ltd (see

section 2) who can discuss training options with you.

• Do not use a damaged or badly worn scooter — risk of harm.

• This device is a small four-wheel scooter, designed mainly

for indoor use. Extreme care should be taken when

cornering and negotiating drops, obstacles and gradients.

• Under no circumstances should the scooter be used as a

seat in a motor vehicle.

4.6 General Warnings

Warning

• The scooter is to be installed and put into service following

the information provided in these instructions for use. Any

serious incident that has occurred in relation to the device

should be reported to the dealer and manufacturer.

• Avoid unnecessary movement of the scooter.

• The scooter is designed for occupants who weigh less than

115 kg; overloading may put the user at risk of falling or

entrapment.

• Do not touch any exposed contacts or connectors while

using the product or while in contact with other individuals.

• Misused electrical equipment can be hazardous.

• Only manufacturer approved parts, speciﬁed for the

UltraFold scooter, should be used. Accessories that have

not been approved or designed for use with the scooter

are not to be used – a hazard could be introduced due to

product combination incompatibility. If in doubt, contact

Drive DeVilbiss Healthcare Ltd

• Do not remove the anti-tip wheels or transit wheels.

Modiﬁcation of the scooter, its parts or features is not

allowed without the permission of Drive DeVilbiss

Healthcare Ltd – a hazard could be introduced.

• The scooter is electrically operated, so should not be used

in oxygen-rich environments, in the presence of ﬂammable

gases, sources of heat or naked ﬂames – risk of explosion

/ ﬁre. Damaged or worn upholstery increases the risk of ﬁre

hazard, and should be replaced immediately.

• Individuals unable to drive the scooter without assistance

or supervision must not use the scooter without such

supervision. Unsupervised use of the scooter must be

avoided if there is any doubt about the ability of an

individual to operate it safely.

• If the scooter is to be used by a disabled person living on

their own, then a communication device (e.g. personal alarm

system) shall be installed in the area of use, so that users

can summon assistance in the event of an emergency.

• If children, adults with learning diculties or pets pose a

potential risk of tampering with the scooter, its suitability for

use is to be considered during the initial user / product risk

assessment.

Warning

5. TRANSPORT & STORAGE

Environmental conditions for transport and storage:

Ambient temperature: -20°C to +45°C

These conditions should be followed when transporting or storing the scooter:

• The scooter should be stored fully folded, on a ﬂat and level ﬂoor.

• Always fully charge, then remove the battery prior to long-term storage.

• The scooter should be stored in clean and dry conditions. Cover to protect

from ﬂuid ingress, dirt, dust, extreme temperatures etc.

• Scooters should not be stored on their side, on their backs, or stacked

atop each other.

• When transporting scooters by vehicle, they should be securely stowed

in the back of a van, truck, or trunk of a car. Adjustable parts should be

removed or properly secured during transport.

• The battery must not be left at high temperatures (+45°C or more).

• Keep the keys and instructions for use with the scooter or in a safe place.

This vehicle is suitable for land and air transport. The UltraFold Auto Folding

Scooter comes with a lithium battery pack, which may require special packaging

provisions in line with IATA or UN Guidelines.

Note: When using public transportation, contact your carrier’s ticket counter in

advance to determine their speciﬁc requirements. You may also need to remove

the battery when stowed away. See this section for details on how to do this.

If your scooter is stored for a prolonged period, ﬂat spots may develop in the

wheels, causing an uneven sensation when driving. This should work itself out

over time. Drive DeVilbiss Healthcare Ltd suggest placing a sturdy platform

under the frame to lift the wheels o the ground, and take weight o the wheels

during storage. If you notice ﬂat spots after continued use, replace the scooter

wheels immediately.

• Always lift your scooter by the frame. Do not attempt to lift

by any removable parts (e.g. seat or body shrouds).

• Infrequently charged batteries, or batteries stored without a

full charge are susceptible to permanent damage, causing

unreliable performance from your scooter.

• Avoid placing the scooter in direct sunlight — this could

damage the electrical system and / or cause label fading.

• Remove the key from an unattended scooter.
