➕ When it might be useful

- When a chair is needed for regular use on different surfaces and floors.

- In institutional, hospital or residential care settings, where equipment is subjected to more intensive and continuous use.
➕ What it facilitates in daily life
- The double crossbar system allows the chair to be folded simply, facilitating storage in a corner of the house or in a cupboard.
- The flip-up armrests are essential for facilitating lateral transfers (e.g., from bed to chair).
- The seat and backrest in fire-retardant and waterproof material greatly simplify cleaning and increase daily hygiene.
- Polyurethane pneumatic wheels ensure smoother driving, absorbing small irregularities in the floor.
- Removable footrests allow closer approach to tables and desks.
➕ Use, maintenance and storage
During use, the wheelchair should be periodically inspected. Daily cleaning is simple: just use a damp cloth and neutral soap due to its waterproof materials.
Store the chair in a cool, ventilated place. When transporting it, avoid strong pressure on the frame and protect it from prolonged direct sunlight, rain or snow.
Safety tip for transfers: Bring the chair as close as possible to the person, position it sideways, and always lock the rear wheel brakes before ascending or descending. Additional caution is recommended when moving on uneven surfaces.
