Ramp Safety

Wheelchair passengers and attendants (when applicable), must use basic common sense and good judgement regarding ramp safety. The Braun

Corporation recognizes that each wheelchair passenger has a unique set of physical abilities combined with the physical characteristics of his or her wheelchair that dictate the method in which he or she will enter and exit their Entervan. Consequently, the procedures for safe operation outlined in this manual are general in nature.

and practice ramp boarding and exiting procedures under the direction of your health care professional, your wheelchair representative, and your Entervan sales representative (dealer) to ensure your ability

to do so safely.

Never board an Entervan ramp if you or your attendant are intoxicated. The wheelchair must be positioned in the center of the ramp at all times.

You must be able to clearly view the ramp whenever boarding and and exiting the vehicle.

Follow all safety instructions regarding torso restraints, stability, balance, weight distribution and use of attendants as specified in the owner's manual supplied with your wheelchair. Determine, establish

It is the responsibility of the wheelchair operator to enter and exit the Entervan on the ramp in the safest manner.

WARNING

Position and secure

(buckle, engage, fasten, etc.) the wheelchair-equipped occupant seat belt before loading onto the wheelchair ramp.


Wheelchair-Equipped Occupant Seat Belts

The Braun Corporation recommends wheelchair passengers position and buckle their wheelchair-equipped seat belt (torso restraint), as specified by the manufacturer, before loading onto a wheelchair ramp.

Different types of disabilities require different types of wheelchairs and different types of wheelchairequipped occupant restraint belt systems (torso restraint). It is the responsibility of the wheelchair passenger to have his or her wheelchair equipped with an occupant restraint (seat belt) under the direction of their health care professional.

Wheelchair attendants should be instructed on any special needs and/or procedures required for safe transport of wheelchair passengers.

Stabilizing Wheelchairs

Powered and manual wheelchairs are designed to remain upright and stable during normal operation.

All activities which involve movement in a wheelchair have an effect on the combined center of gravity of the occupant and wheelchair. Be aware of the Entervan ramp slope (angle). The slope of

WARNING

Be aware of ramp slope.

the ramp has a direct effect on the center of gravity.

Keep in mind your center of gravity and your ability to maintain stability and balance.

Do not operate your wheelchair on the Entervan ramp without assistance if your are unable to maintain stability and balance.

Counterbalance devices (antitippers) may be available from your wheelchair representative to enhance stability and balance.

Do not tilt your wheelchair without assistance. Operate the wheelchair at a slow and constant speed when on the

Page 15


Stabilizing Wheelchairs (continued) ramp. Do not accelerate suddenly when on the ramp.

Do not raise the front wheelchair wheels (pull wheelie) when on the Entervan ramp.

WARNING


The aid of an attendant stabilizing the wheelchair is recommended for optimum safety.

Wheelchair passengers who intend to enter and exit their

Entervan without the assistance of an attendant must determine the safest and most practical method and orientation of entering and exiting the

Entervan based on the physical characteristics of their personal wheelchair and his or her physical capabilities to maintain stability while the wheelchair is in motion on the Entervan ramp.

It is the responsibility of the wheelchair operator to enter and exit the Entervan on the ramp in the safest manner.

Wheelchair Attendants: When assisting a wheelchair occupant, remember to use good body mechanics. Keep your back straight and bend your knees. When the wheelchair is on the ramp, the

52217

attendant must grasp the push handles (or other) securely.

Detachable wheelchair parts such as arms or legrests must

never be used for hand holds or lifting supports. Doing so could result in the detachable parts being inadvertently

WARNING

Do not grip detachable wheelchair parts when assisting to stabilize wheelchair.

Doing so may result in serious bodily injury and/or property damage.

detached from the wheelchair resulting in possible injury to the

wheelchair occupant and/or the attendant.

Wheelchair Orientation and Securement During Transport:

The wheelchair and occupant must face the front of the vehicle and must be secured using the For-

ward-Facing Wheelchair and Occupant Belt/

Track System when riding in the Entervan. See pages 25-29 for Wheelchair and Occupant Re-

straint details.

Operation Procedure Review

The Braun Corporation recommends wheelchair passengers and their attendant(s) review the material contained in this manual with your Entervan sales representative (dealer), before attempting

operation. Any questions or concerns can be answered by your dealer at that time.

Using your own wheelchair and personal atten-

dant (if applicable), operate the Entervan through all functions and enter and exit the vehicle with your dealer on hand to ensure the Entervan is right for you as the end user, (applicable for your use based on your physical abilities and the physical characteristics of your personal wheelchair). Practice using the wheelchair and occupant belt/track system with your sales representative on hand. Become familiar with the proper operation of all Entervan features.

Page 16


Preventive Maintenance

Preventive maintenance consisting of careful inspections of your Entervan systems should be a part of your routine. Simple inspections can detect potential kneel, door or ramp malfunctions. Regular preventive maintenance evaluations will reduce potential operation down time and increase the service life of the Entervan, as well as enhancing safety. During routine inspections, operate all

Entervan systems and note the following:

1-800-THE LIFT. One of our national service representatives will direct you to an authorized service repairman who will inspect your Entervan.

Preventive maintenance visual inspections do not take the place of the procedures specified in the

Maintenance/Lubrication Schedule. The procedures outlined in the detailed Maintenance/Lubrication

Schedule provided in this manual must be per-

formed at the recommended scheduled intervals.

• Do the control switches function properly?

• Does the kneel feature function properly?

• Does the automatic door function properly?

• Does the automatic ramp unfold and fold properly?

• Is the power source adequate or weak?

Inspect the wheelchair and occupant restraint belts, buckles and hardware. If there is any sign of damage, wear, abnormal condition or improper operation, discontinue Entervan use immediately.

Contact your dealer or call The Braun Corporation at

Exposure to harsh weather elements or environmental conditions may reduce the service life of Entervan systems. Road salt used to melt snow and ice in northern climates as well as salt water climates tend to corrode components more rapidly. Extreme dusty or sandy conditions can cause contamination and reduce the effectiveness of lubrication. If your

Entervan is exposed to these types of harsh conditions, have your maintenance and lubrication procedures performed often.

Door Locks and Anti-Theft (Alarm) System

Opening the power slide door using either interiormounted yellow OPEN/CLOSE switch or using the remote control OPEN switch does not disarm the

Chrysler factory-equipped (OEM) Anti-Theft System

(if equipped). If you open the power slide door using one of these Entervan controls before unlocking a vehicle door, the alarm system will be

triggered.

Always disarm the alarm system before opening

the power slide door. You can disarm the alarm system by unlocking the driver door, front passenger door or liftgate with the door key. You can also disarm the system by pressing the OEM remote keyless entry transmitter UNLOCK button.

A. Position of the lap belt buckle, after adjustment, is to be located near hip position. The belt is to be worn low and snugly. Adjustment of the lap belt is to be made at adjuster buckle behind the chair.

Inspect seat belt assemblies frequently during time in service to evaluate system for belt wear. Any defects such as belt cut, fraying or malfunctioning call for replacement of the entire system including belt, buckle and hardware.

B. The lap belt must be used in conjunction with the vehicle factory-equipped upper torso shoulder harness.

The latch plate side of belt must be opposite shoulder harness to properly extend shoulder harness across occupant. The lap belt end fitting (keeper) must be attached to vehicle-mounted “A” track as outlined in

Wheelchair and Occupant Belt/Track Attachment

Any seat belt system exposed to environmental conditions or climates such as dirt, mud, oil, sand, cement, and grease will severely reduce the life of the system. Extreme care must be taken in the inspection of a system exposed to these conditions. The replacement of the system must be a top priority to ensure efficient functioning of the system and enhance the safety to the end user.

WARNING

Seat attachments must be fully latched in floor supports before occupying seats or operating vehicle. Failure to do so will result in serious bodily injury.

Front seat removal and installation procedures are identical for driver and passenger seat (driver seat photos shown).

Release Handles


Seat Securement Devices:

The quick-release front seats are equipped with mechanical seat base attachments that attach to recessed floor strikers (supports).

Two release handles are located at the rear of the seat base.

Squeezing the handles and rotating the handles downward disengages the attachments and deploys the wheels. Squeezing the handles and rotating the handles upward engages the attachments.

A lock indicator button pops up when the seat is unlocked. The indicator button returns into the handle when the attachment mechanism is in the fully-engaged position (seat base attachments are fully-engaged with floor strikers) and in the fully-disengaged position (seat base attachments are fully-disengaged from floor strikers and wheels are deployed).

Auxiliary Power Supply for Dealer-Installed Power Seat or Tie-Down

WARNING

Risk of electrical fire!

Install and electrically terminate Auxiliary electrical device as specified by device manufacturer.

A fuse block that can accommodate up to six additional ATO ® type fuses is provided behind the dash below the steering column.

This power source is available for installation of a dealer-installed power seat, an electric tie-down or other auxiliary electrical device.

The installer is responsible for

supplying the correct gauge

wire and fuse for the particular device to be attached to the fuse block (as specified by the manufacturer of the device).

The maximum load must not

exceed 25 amperes. Wiring must be routed and terminated properly by the installer. Wires with female fully-insulated terminals can simply be connected to one of six available terminals on the fuse block. Note: If install-

ing an auxiliary electrical device that requires more than a 25 ampere power source, an alternative power source must

be provided. Refer to the

Electrical Schematic and Wiring

Diagram contained in this manual.

Note: A switch and power-supply cable are supplied with each

Entervan

®

for use when installing an auxiliary electrical device (if

applicable).

The Braun Corporation further warrants to the purchaser that the remainder of the modifications and alterations for associated parts are free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of 36 months or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first. For clarification purposes, the following chart outlines The Braun Corporation Entervan warranty coverage.

* Exceptions: Cosmetic or surface corrosion (resulting from stone chips for example) would not be covered or repaired under this coverage. If corrosion does not cause holes, and is not the result of usage and/or environmental conditions, repair coverage lasts for 3 years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first.

Both the 7 year/100,000 mile corrosion and the 3 year/36,000 mile warranties described above commence on the date the conversion is put into service, providing the warranty registration card is completed and received by The Braun Corporation within thirty days of the purchase.

The Braun Corporation agrees to repair or replace any of its Entervan factory-installed parts found to be defective within the appropriate warranty period or mileage. This warranty also covers the cost of labor for the repair or replacement of said parts for one year provided that the repair is authorized by The Braun Corporation and carried out by an authorized service establishment (a Braun labor schedule determines the cost allowance for repairs).

The Braun Corporation will not honor any warranty claim for repairs or replacement of parts unless the claim is submitted with the appropriate factory warranty authorization data and the repairs or

Page 60

replacement of the parts are completed by a factoryauthorized repairman. The factory authorization data, together with the name and location of the factory-authorized repairman, can be obtained by either written or telephone contact with The Braun

Corporation at the addresses appearing in this manual.

Further, this warranty shall not extend to parts or workmanship that may become defective because of the failure of anyone to operate the same in accordance with the printed instructions of The

Braun Corporation or because of operation of the same beyond its capacity.

The return authorization procedure must be adhered to in order to process any warranty and repair claims (details below).

The Braun Corporation reserves the right to designate where any warranty work is to be performed.

Braun Corporation. This application must be returned to The Braun Corporation within thirty days from the date you purchase the vehicle and proof of the date of purchasing must be supplied with the transfer of warranty application. There will be a minimum warranty transfer fee.

The Braun Corporation also reserves the right to examine any defective workmanship or part prior to any authorization of necessary repairs. This Entervan warranty is not intended to replace or substitute any other warranties issued by the original manufacturer of the vehicle or other suppliers of components. This warranty shall not apply to any part or workmanship that may become defective due to misuse, neglect, accident or other casualty, modifications or alterations or unauthorized repairs.

The Braun Corporation shall not be liable for any incidental or consequential damages resulting from any breach of warranty.

The Braun Corporation shall not be liable for towing charges, travel and lodging, or any other expense incurred due to the loss of use of vehicle or other reason.
