15.2. Service
The LEVO C
3
is designed to be maintenance free and, apart from the items
mentioned below, does not require attention from the user.
Please note that to maintain safe and efficient operation, the wheelchair
should be serviced at least once per year by your LEVO agent or
authorized dealer. This annual service has to be filled into the service
card from the agent/dealer.
The user or their family should carry out the following tasks.
• Keep the wheelchair clean.
• Never store the wheelchair when damp.
• Keep the batteries charged to the maximum.
• Check that all fittings, harness, etc. are working properly (chapter 9 and 11).
• Check operation of motor disengaging lever weekly.
• Check operation of all controls daily.
• If any faults are found, report them immediately to your agent. He will advise
you whether to continue using the wheelchair or not, and what action you
should take to repair the wheelchair.
15.3. Safety checks
The electronic circuits in your control system have been designed to be
extremely safe and reliable. The on-board microcomputer carries out safety
checks at up to 100 times per second. To supplement this safety monitoring you
should carry out the following periodic checks.
If the control system fails any of these checks, do not use the wheelchair and
contact your service agent.
15.3.1. Daily checks
Joystick: With the control system switched off, check that the joystick is not
bent or damaged and that it returns to the center when you push and
release it. If there is a problem, discontinue the safety checks and
contact your service agent.
