2.3. Electromagnetic radiation
The standard version of your powered wheelchair has been tested for compliance with the applicable requirements relating to electromagnetic radiation (EMC requirements).
Warning Despite testing, the following cannot be ruled out:
• electromagnetic radiation interfering with the wheelchair. For example mobile
telephones, large medical devices or other sources of electromagnetic radiation
• the powered wheelchair interfering with electromagnetic elds. For example
shop doors, burglar alarm systems in shops or garage door openers.
• in some congurations equipped with a R-net controller, where it is possible
that extreme electrical discharge situations due to static electricity, may cause
a fault message (‘ISM over-current’) ashing on the screen. If this occurs simply turn o your wheelchair for a few seconds and back on to clear the fault.
In the unlikely event of such problems arising, please notify your dealer immediately.

3.2. The user
Driving a powered wheelchair requires the user to have cognitive, physical and visual abilities. The user must be capable of estimating the consequences of any action taken while driving the wheelchair and of correcting action where required. The wheelchair must not carry more than one person. The maximum user
weight is 160 kg, unless otherwise stated on the identication plate (see 2.4). Any
additional weight in the form of a bag, accessories or medical equipment must be added to the user's weight, with the resulting total weight not exceeding the maximum user weight. The user must also be aware of the contents of this manual before using the
wheelchair for the rst time. The wheelchair user must also have received
thorough instruction from the dealer before using public roads. A trainer/
consultant must supervise the user's rst experience of driving the wheelchair.
Warning
• The wheelchair user shall at all times be fully responsible for compliance with locally applicable safety regulations and guidelines.
• You must not drive the wheelchair while under the inuence of any substances
that may aect your driving ability.
• Your eyesight must be good enough to allow you to use the wheelchair in any particular situation safely.

3.3. Operating environment
This wheelchair has been developed for both indoor and outdoor use (EN 12184 (2014) class B). When outdoors, drive only on paved roads, pavements, footpaths and cycle paths. Always adjust your speed to your surroundings.
Warning
• A wheelchair should be regarded as a replacement for the walking function.
Users must therefore travel among pedestrians and not on streets with trac.
• The use of the wheelchair on walk ways and roads may be subject to the
applicable legal requirements of National Road Laws or Road Trac Laws.
• Drive carefully on roads that are slippery due to rain, ice or snow!
• Prevent the wheelchair from coming into contact with seawater, as it is
aggressive and has a corrosive eect.
• Prevent the wheelchair from coming into contact with sand. Sand can get into the moving parts of the wheelchair, causing unnecessarily rapid wear.
• When visibility is limited, the use of lights is compulsory.
• Exercise additional care when driving at high speeds. Adjust to a lower maximum speed when driving indoors, on pavements and in pedestrianised areas.
• Do not drive o of high obstacles.
• Do not use the wheelchair at temperatures below -10˚C or above +50˚C.
• Do not attach any weights to the wheelchair without consulting a specialist. You
may otherwise inuence the stability of the product.
• Do not use the wheelchair to push and/or pull any objects along.
• Do not open doors using the leg rests.
• Do not drive through puddles of water.

Wheelchair settings (qualied specialists only)
There is no such thing as an average wheelchair user. This is why DIETZ-Power
wheelchairs can be adjusted to a specic user's individual situation.
We make a distinction between user adjustments and permanent settings.
• User adjustments can be made by the user himself/herself without the need
for any tools.
• Permanent settings must be altered by a dealer, unless expressly stated
otherwise.
Warning A number of permanent settings are described in the following paragraphs. Only
qualied service technicians or dealers may alter these.
 SERVICE for more adjustments and replacement information
5.1. Tools
The following tools are needed to do the settings as described in this paragraph:
• Spanner, size 13
• Allen key, size 4, 5 and 6
5.2. Adjusting the centre of
gravity (seat position)
The centre of gravity of the wheelchair can be moved/adjusted by moving the seat. There are a number of positions on the
seat slide for this purpose (gure 9).
Warning Only change the position of the seat
and the centre of gravity in order to compensate for specic user situations. One
example might be compensation for a user with no legs. Moving the centre of gravity:
• will have a negative eect on the handling of the wheelchair if not carried out
correctly.
• will have a negative eect on dynamic stability if not carried out correctly;
• For FWD do not position the seating frame in the most front position
• For RWD + MWD move seating frame in most front position when Seat
depth is maximum.
• should be made by professionals only. If in any doubt, contact DIETZ-Power technical support department.

adjusted according to the user's specic
situation. All of the optional seat heights fall within the maximum safe slope of
6˚ (10.5%), as set out in EN 12184 (2014)
class B. Lowering the seat height will have
a positive eect on overall and dynamic
stability.
1. Loosen the bolt (A gure 10).
2. Position the bolt in the hole (B)

Wheelchair adjustments are those components that the user can adjust without
the use of tools. The wheelchair may be tted with powered and/or mechanical
adjustment options.
Warning
• The centre of gravity is aected when adjustments are made. Adjustments
should therefore only be made when the wheelchair is on a at surface.
• Powered adjustments involve parts of the wheelchair moving and/or rotating.
Contact with such moving parts may result in serious physical injury or damage to the wheelchair. You should avoid any contact with the moving parts of the wheelchair.
• When adjustments are made, the standard size of the wheelchair increases.

7 Using the wheelchair
7.1. Checking the wheelchair
Warning Carry out the following checks before using the wheelchair:
•
CONTROLLER check whether the batteries are suciently charged: if they
are, the green lights on the battery indicator will be on.
•
CONTROLLER check whether the lights and the indicators are working.
• Check whether the tyres are suciently inated (see 9.3).
• Ensure that the freewheel switch is in the 'drive' position (see 7.6).
Warning When using the wheelchair:
• Take the length of your clothing into account. Before using the wheelchair,
check to see whether any garments or accessories could come into contact with the wheels or any other moving and/or rotating parts and become entangled in them.
• Battery capacity is reduced in winter. When there is a light frost, capacity
is around 75% of normal capacity. At temperatures below -5˚C, capacity is reduced by approximately 50%. This reduces the operating range.
7.2. Getting into and out of the wheelchair
Getting into and out of a wheelchair is also described as making a transfer.
Warning Do not stand on the footplates when making a transfer. They are not designed to carry a person’s full weight. Standing on them may also cause the wheelchair to tip over. Before making a transfer, ensure that:
• The controller is turned o
• The freewheel switch is in the 'drive' position (see 7.6)
Forward transfer
1. Flip up the footrests (A gure 31) and
swing-away the calf supports (B) (if applicable).
2. If possible, swing-away the leg rests (C)
or remove them from the bracket.

7.4. Driving on slopes or ramps
With all settings in the neutral position
(see 6.1), slopes/ramps of ≤6˚ (10.5%) are
deemed to be part of the standard user environment for the FWD without stability
being aected (gure 33). For the RWD and MWD the applicable gradient is ≤10˚ (17.6%).
Slopes or ramps outside the standard user environment
Driving on slopes/ramps that are steeper than the maximum safe slope may lead to safety risks in terms of stability. Driving on such slopes/ramps requires the user to practise extreme caution and full control. Always drive carefully and never experiment! Follow the instructions given under warnings!
The stability and performance of the wheelchair depend on many variables. Wheelchairs are adapted to individual users. For this reason these variables will be
dierent from one wheelchair to another. You should therefore ensure that your dealer provides you with sucient information about how to use the wheelchair and that the dealer informs you whether the specic adjustments or adaptations for your situation will aect the handling of the wheelchair.
Warning
• Always drive up and down slopes/ramps slowly, concentrating on what you are
doing.
• Avoid any sudden, jolting movements.
• Avoid making an emergency stop on a slope/ramp.
• The braking distance on a slope can be considerably greater than on a at
surface.
• When on slopes/ramp, try to avoid changing direction as much as possible.
• Do not turn on a slope.
• Drive on slopes/ramps only when all adjustments (lift, tilt, recline) are in the
neutral position.
• Never drive up or down a slope/ramp backwards.
• Do not drive on slopes/ramp with loose gravel or a sandy surface, as one of the
drive wheels may slip or spin.
• Driving up or down a slope for long periods of time may result in the motor
overheating.
• We always recommend an anti-tip device for driving down slopes in a FWD
wheelchair.
• If you notice that your speed is being greatly reduced when driving up a slope,
select a route that is less steep.
• Prevent the wheelchair from reaching high speeds when driving down slopes.

7.5. Obstacles
Warning
• Never descend steps/a ight of stairs
in a wheelchair.
• Do not drive o of obstacles higher
than 50 mm.
• Always drive onto or o an obstacle in
forward direction.
• Drive on slopes/ramps only when all
adjustments (lift, tilt, recline) are in the neutral position.
Mounting pavements
• Select the lowest section of the kerb.
• Position the wheelchair so it is facing
the kerb, 20 cm in front of it. (gure
34).
• Move the joystick forwards. Drive onto the pavement without changing
direction.
• Once the front wheels have mounted the pavement, you will need to maintain
speed to get all of the wheels up onto it. If you are not able to mount the pavement, select a section where the kerb is lower.
Dismounting pavements
• Select the lowest section of the kerb. If in any doubt, do not take any risks and
choose a dierent route.
• Position the front wheels so that they are facing the kerb.
• Slowly move the joystick forwards. Drive o of the pavement as carefully and as
slowly as possible without changing direction.
7.6. Pushing the wheelchair
The wheelchair can also be moved by pushing it. The motors need to be disengaged in order to make this possible. This is done using a freewheel switch, one for the left and one for the right motor
(gure 35).
A. ‘Drive’ position. The wheelchair can
be moved by use of the controller, it cannot be pushed.
B. 'Push' position. The wheelchair can be
pushed, the controller cannot be used to drive the wheelchair.
Warning
• The freewheel lever was developed for
the attendants of wheelchair users. The freewheel lever must never be operated by the user himself/herself. It should be used only by an attendant.

Page 27
• The automatic parking brake works only in the 'Drive' position.
• The freewheel lever must be set to the 'Push' position only if the wheelchair
is to be actually pushed. Set the freewheel switch to the 'Drive' position
immediately after pushing is nished.
• Never use the 'Push' position on a slope! When the freewheel lever is in the
'Push' position, the automatic parking brake is turned o. This could then result
in the wheelchair rolling downhill accidentally.
7.7. Storage of the wheelchair after use
When the wheelchair is not in use:
• It must be stored in a dry place where it will not be aected by the weather.
• Do not position the wheelchair in direct sunlight. Parts of the wheelchair could
then become so hot that they could burn you.
• The ambient temperature for storage should be no lower than -20˚C and no
higher than +65˚C.
• Disconnect batteries in case of longer storage without usage.
If you start using the wheelchair again after it has been in storage for a while, you must check it again (see 7.1).

8.1. Transporting the
wheelchair in motor vehicles
Powered wheelchairs are too heavy to lift. Use suitable ramps for getting the wheelchair into a vehicle.
Warning Always take the following into account:
• Position the wheelchair in a forward-
facing direction inside the vehicle.
• Any components that can easily be
detached from the wheelchair must be removed (see 4). Store away any such components properly.
• The wheelchair should be secured
only by using the particular provided
securing points on the frame (gure
37).
• No changes or replacements must
be made to the anchorage points on the wheelchair, or to constructional elements or parts of the frame without consulting DIETZ-Power.
• Use a 4-point strap tiedown system
approved to ISO10542 standards and suitable for the total weight of the wheelchair. The weight of the wheelchair will depend on its composition. A list of some of the options and how much they contribute to the total weight of the wheelchair
can be found in the specication table
(see 9). Always take the total weight of the wheelchair into account in order to ensure that the tiedown system is the correct one.
• The tiedown straps should be
attached as close as possible to the wheelchair at an angle of 45 degrees
(gure 36) and tightened securely in
accordance with the instructions of the manufacturer of the tiedown system.
• The wheelchair should be inspected
by a DIETZ-Power authorised dealer before re-use following involvement in any type of vehicle impact.

Warning Wheelchairs are not designed to function as seats inside a vehicle and do not provide the same level of safety as a normal seat, irrespective of how well they are secured inside the vehicle. DIETZ­Power recommends that wheelchair users transfer to a standard seat whenever possible. If this is not possible, then the following should be taken into account:
• This wheelchair is crashtested with
a 4-point strap tiedown system
according to ISO 7176-19 (2008)
considering a maximum passenger weight of 102 kg.
• Ask the vehicle operator whether
the vehicle is suitable, insured and equipped for the transportation of a user seated in a wheelchair.
• Set all adjustments of the wheelchair in the neutral position (see 6.1).
• Ensure that the controller is turned o.
• DIETZ-Power recommends tting and using the headrest during transportation.
• Any belt attached to the wheelchair will be purely for positioning purposes and
should not be used or relied on for occupant restraint in a moving vehicle.
• It is vital that you are secured with a three-point seat belt attached to the oor
and the wall of the vehicle during transportation.
• The pelvis part of the three-point seat belt must be adjusted as tightly as
possible consistent with user comfort, at an angle between 30° and 75° and
should not be held away from the body by wheelchair components (gure 38).
• Both the pelvic and chest belts should be used to reduce the risk of head and
chest injuries in the event of colliding with parts in the car.

8.2. The wheelchair as a
driver’s seat in a car with Dahl docking system (option)
Securing the wheelchair (gure 39)
1. Drive the wheelchair into the car
docking station (A). When the wheelchair is correctly positioned, the locking plate that is mounted under the wheelchair automatically clicks into the docking station.
2. The LED light (B) on the control panel
indicates that the wheelchair is locked and remains as long as the locking plate is in the docking station.
Warning
• A crash test with Dahl was performed on this wheelchair according to ISO 7176-
19 (2008) with a dummy weight of max. 77 kg.
• The docking station must always be clean, free of durt and there must be no
objects that may obstruct the locking of the locking plate in the docking station.
• The wheelchair must always be secured according to current regulations. The
docking system must be checked regularly and must be replaced if damaged.
• A warning tone sounds when the lock plate is not properly locked in the
docking station.
Unlock the wheelchair
To unlock commence by driving the wheelchair forward to release pressure on the lock pin and press the release button (C). Do not attempt to reverse out of the docking station until the red LED on the control module (F), which indicates the unlock position, has been illuminated. Attempting to reverse the wheelchair before the red LED has been illuminated will result in blocking the docking stations lock mechanism which makes it impossible to reverse. If this happens repeat above unlocking procedure.
In case of power failure use the manual release lever (D or E).

9.1. Cleaning the wheelchair and its upholstery
Warning
• When cleaning the wheelchair, ensure that the controller is turned o. If the
joystick is accidently touched, this may cause the wheelchair to start moving or the powered options to be operated.
• Take care when using water because of the system being electronic.
• Clean the upholstery and the dirty parts of the wheelchair using a damp cloth
and household soap. Then rub dry using a soft, dry cloth.
• Never use abrasive or aggressive detergents, as these may scratch surfaces.
• Do not use any organic solvents, such as thinner, benzine or white spirit.
• Do not chemically clean the upholstery.
• Do not iron or spin-dry the upholstery.
9.2. Batteries
The wheelchair is tted with 'dry' gel batteries. The batteries are fully sealed and
require no maintenance.
Warning
• The use of ‘wet’ batteries is not permitted.
• Battery capacity is reduced in winter. When there is a light frost, capacity
is around 75% of normal capacity. At temperatures below -5˚C, capacity is reduced by approximately 50%. This reduces the operating range.
• Ensure that the batteries are always well charged. Long-term non-usage of the
batteries can damage them.
• Do not use the wheelchair if the batteries are almost at and never drive until
the batteries are completely at. Doing so can seriously damage them and you
would also mean running the risk of coming to a standstill.
• The batteries contain gel. Damaged batteries pose a serious threat to health.
Always follow the instructions on the batteries.
Charging
Technical specications (see 10).
 CHARGER to check if the charger is suitable for use with the wheelchair batteries and for instructions on how to activate the battery charger.
 CONTROLLER for the right connection for the charger plug. The contents of the manuals are vital in terms of the safe use of the wheelchair. If any of the manuals are missing on delivery of your wheelchair, please contact your dealer immediately.
Under normal use, the batteries will need to be charged every night. The battery
charger indicates when the batteries are fully charged. Depending on how at the
batteries are, it can take up to 12 hours to fully charge them.
Replacement
If the battery capacity is steadily decreasing and the wheelchair can only be used for very short trips, this means that the batteries have reached the end of their lifespan. They then need to be replaced. Consult your dealer.
SANGO ADVANCED / SLIMLINE - 33

9.3. Tyres
In order to ensure optimum performance of your wheelchair, it is very important to keep its tyres at the right pressure. The correct pressure can also be found on the side of the tyres.
Wheel
Maximum tyre pressure
8” castor wheel 2,5 bar 9” castor wheel 3,5 bar 10” castor wheel 3,5 bar 12” drive wheel 2,8 bar 14” drive wheel 3,5 bar
Warning Never exceed the maximum tyre pressure.
If tyres are too soft, the handling of the wheelchair will be reduced. Propelling the wheelchair will also require more energy, resulting in a greater drain on the batteries. Driving with soft tyres also unnecessarily increases tyre wear.
Warning
SERVICE for comprehensive details relating to tyre repairs (qualied specialists
only). Before starting any repair work on the tyres, rst fully deate them.
34 - SANGO ADVANCED / SLIMLINE
9 Wheelchair maintenance
Page 35
9.4. Disposing of the wheelchair
The technical lifetime of the wheelchair is inuenced by the extent to which it
is used. Under normal use and with the prescribed maintenance, the expected technical lifetime of the wheelchair is approximately seven years. In order to derive
maximum benet from the lifetime of the wheelchair, ensure that it undergoes
regular maintenance (see 9).
If your wheelchair is no longer required or needs to be replaced, it will usually be possible to arrange for your dealer to take it back. If this
should not be possible, consult with your local authority to nd out if
it can be recycled or if the materials used in it can be processed in an
environmentally friendly way. Various plastics and metals were used in the manufacture of the wheelchair. It also contains electronic components that should be disposed of appropriately. The batteries constitute chemical waste.

• whether the dealer should order a new product/part from the
manufacturer. The dealer then receives an invoice detailing the shipping costs involved. The dealer arranges and pays for the defective product/ part to be sent to the manufacturer. Once the manufacturer has received the defective product/part, it is assessed. If the manufacturer deems the
warranty claim to be justied, the dealer receives a credit note for the new
product/part ordered and the shipping costs involved.
If the warranty claim is deemed to be unjustied, the dealer is informed and the manufacturer makes an oer for the costs of replacement parts and/or provides
an indication of the cost of repair. Once the dealer agrees to this, the product/part is repaired and/or replaced at the dealer's expense and returned at the dealer's expense. The dealer can also opt to have the product/part returned without repair at the dealer's own expense.
