Care and Maintenance
Your Aspen is a sophisticated power chair. Like any motorized vehicle, it requires routine maintenance
checks. You can perform some of these checks, but others require assistance from your Quantum Rehab
Provider. Preventive maintenance is very important. If you follow the maintenance checks in this section
as scheduled, you can help ensure that your power chair gives you years of trouble-free operation. If
you have any doubt as to your power chair’s care or operation, contact your Quantum Rehab Provider.
WARNING! Do not service the power chair when the seat is occupied.
Your power chair, like most electrical equipment, is susceptible to damage from the elements. Avoid
damp areas of any kind.
WARNING! Direct or prolonged exposure to water or dampness could cause the power chair to
malfunction electronically and mechanically. Water can cause electrical components to corrode
and the chair’s frame to rust. Power chairs should be examined periodically for signs of corrosion
caused by water exposure, bodily fluid exposure, or incontinence. Damaged components should
be replaced or treated immediately.
Should your power chair come in contact with water:
1. Dry your power chair as thoroughly as possible with a towel.
2. Allow your power chair to sit in a warm, dry place for 12 hours to allow unseen water to evaporate.
3. Check the joystick operation and the brakes before using your power chair again.
4. If any inconsistencies are found, take your power chair to a Quantum Rehab Provider. Power chairs
that are frequently exposed to sources of water, such as incontinence, should be inspected often for
corrosion and electronic components may need to be replaced frequently.
Temperature
Some of the parts of your power chair are susceptible to extreme changes in temperature. Always
keep your power chair between the temperatures of 18°F (-8°C) and 122°F (50°C).
In extremely cold temperatures the batteries may freeze. The specific temperature at which they
freeze depends on a number of factors, such as battery charge, usage, and composition of the
batteries (e.g., AGM or Gel-Cell).
General Guidelines
Avoid knocking or bumping the controller, especially the joystick.
Avoid prolonged exposure of your power chair to extreme conditions, such as heat, cold, or moisture.
Keep the controller clean.
Check all connectors to ensure that they are all tight and secured properly.
Make sure pneumatic tires are inflated to the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on the tire.
WARNING! Make sure your tires are inflated to the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on the tire for
pneumatic tires. Do not underinflate or overinflate your tires. Low pressure may result in loss of control, and
overinflated tires may burst. Overinflating tires can cause them to explode.
WARNING! Do not use a high pressure hose to inflate your tires.
Use a rubber conditioner on the tire sidewalls to help preserve them.
WARNING! Never use a rubber conditioner on the tread area of the tires; doing so may make the tires slippery
and cause your power chair to skid.
All wheel bearings are prelubricated and sealed. They require no subsequent lubrication.
The body shroud has been sprayed with a clear sealant coating. You can apply a light coat of car
wax to help it retain its high-gloss appearance.
