Warning of possible danger of accident and injury. Warning of possible technical damage. Information! About use of product. Information! For service-personnel. Attention! Read manual before use! 3.2 Common safety instructions Read manual completely before use! Familiarize yourself with handling and functions of the product before use and practice the various functions. You are responsible for the safety of your child. The safety of your child could be affected if you do not follow the instructions of this manual. Nevertheless not all possible circumstances and unpredictable situations can be covered by this manual. Reason, care and circumspection are not features of the product, they are required of persons, who use the product. The person, who is using the product and its accessories should understand all instructions and should explain them to every person using the product and its accessories. If instructions are not clear and further explanations become necessary, or if you have further questions please contact your HOGGI dealer. Strap your child at all times, when they are in the wheelchair. HOGGI points out, that any use beside the typical use can be dangerous. The rehab pushchair is not suitable for jogging, running, skating or similar activities. Swivelling front wheels tend to wobble at higher speed, which can cause a sudden stop and tip over of the pushchair. Use the pushchair only at regular walking speed. Under no circumstances leave the handle bar while pushing and never push the chair away. 6 The pushchair should only be used on solid level ground. Use your pushchair as intended by the manufacturer. For instance, do not drive into obstacles (including steps, curbs) without braking. To clear obstacles such as steps and curbs, tilt the pushchair onto the rear wheels (pull it backwards to go up; to descend, slowly lower it forward). Do not go up or down stairs without the assistance of another person. If devices such as ramps or elevators are available, please use them. If they are not available, then the pushchair should be carried over the obstacle by two persons. Pay particular attention when on slopes and inclines to prevent: - the child from falling out of the pushchair - the pushchair from tipping over - the pushchair from rolling away Only lift the pushchair by parts that are solidly attached: - front frame tube above the front wheels - front axle - push handle If you have to park on a slope, face the pushchair uphill with the brakes engaged and ensure that the seat is in the upright position. There is a risk that the pushchair might tip over backwards if the seat is the reclined position. Before leaving the pushchair and before getting into and out of it, always lock the wheel locks. When your child reaches for objects in front, to the side or behind the pushchair, be sure that he/she does not lean out of the pushchair too far since the shift in the center of gravity might cause the pushchair to tilt or tip over. The handling of the pushchair is strongly influenced by tyre pressure. Correctly inflate tyres considerably improve its maneuverability. The air pressure should be at least 2 bar (200 kPa resp. 29 PSI). 7 Please be aware that with certain footrest settings the footrest can collide with the caster wheels. Please keep packaging material away from children. Plastic packaging presents the danger of suffocation. Never leave your child unattended in the pushchair even when they are strapped in and the brakes engaged. In the dark, the user should wear light clothing or clothing with reflectors in order to improvevisibility. Ensure that the reflectors if installed are easily visible. We also recommend installing active illumination. Before using the pushchair, both folding guards and the seat must be firmly locked in place. Static stability is at 10,5° inclination. Attaching heavy bags or other weight to the push handles can adversely affect stability. Caution! Regard specially during adjusting the recline, the tilt in space function and the footrest hanger angle the danger of getting caught for the child by protruding arms or legs into flexible parts of the BINGO evolution. Don´t use the footrest to get into and out of the wheelchair generally. Use the footrest with shoes only. The rehab pushchair is only intended to carry one child at a time. Disposal of waste: The packaging material as far as metal, aluminium and plastic parts can be recycled. The recycling must be operated according to the national and legal terms. The maximum weight that can be carried in the accessories bags is 3 kg (model “soft”) or rather 8 kg (model “large”). Trays must not be loaded with objects heavier than 5 kg. 8 Caution! All upholsteries are hardly inflammable and meet the claim EN 1021 part 1 (cigarette test) and part 2 (match test). But that doesn`t protect the user in the seat unit to suffer burnings by careless handling with blaze or open fire. For storage in the folded situation don`t charge the base frame (if the tie down kit is mounted). The maximum load for the BINGO Evolution mobility base is 60 kg. The maximum load for the BINGO Evolution seat unit is 50 kg. The maximum load for the BINGO Evolution Mini seat unit is 25 kg. Accessories and add-ons reduce the maximum load proportionately. We recommend that, wherever and whenever possible users transfer to the seats installed in the motor vehicle and use the corresponding vehicle restraint systems, because this is the only way to ensure optimum protection of the passengers in case of an accident. Your BINGO Evolution rehab pushchair was successfully tested in accordance with ANSI/RESNA WC/19 and ISO 7176/19 (Crashtest). It is, however, possible to use your BINGO Evolution rehab pushchair as a seat in a motor vehicle, if our “Tie down Kit” (article 3231-7300) as well as appropriate restraint systems are used. Your BINGO Evolution is admitted for use as a seat in a motor vehicle yet. This rehab pushchair is equipped with back angle and seat tilt adjustment. Turn the toggle lever on the backrest and let engage the backrest in the first position. Using the seat tilt adjustment you must bring the backrest into almost upright position (max. 20°). Observe the specifications under 5.9 and 5.17 in this user manual. CAUTION! Important note for BINGO Evolution Mini: BINGO Evolution Mini is admitted for use as a seat in a motor vehicle yet. The crash test according to the international standard ISO 7176/19 is valid for BINGO Evolution Mini. It is absolutely necessary that vehicle occupants, in addition to our „Tie down Kit“, also use the corresponding restraint systems as well as the chest-shoulder harness or fixation jacket when they are traveling in a motor vehicle. See also chapter 7.2.2. in this instruction manual. Caution! Excess strap ends on accessories may be trapped in the tilt mechanism and can avoid the engagement of the locking pins. In such a case the seat could fall off the mobility base. Shorten excess strap ends on accessories so that they can not be trapped. Check by pulling the seat sharply forward that the seat unit is properly engaged. Check that the locking pins are completely engaged. Push in completely, if necessary. 9 The assembly of a seat shell is only permitted within the specified seating area. The manufacturer of that new product combination has to test the stability and the adherence of the maximum load before commissioning. Neither the maximum seat depth nor the maximum back height must be exceeded (see chapter 9). Please read to visually handicapped people the manual and info material - or use electric aids. Please download or read all BINGO Evolution documents on our webside www.hoggi.de. In addition, product videos and product photo galleries are available online! Whenever you change any settings on the BINGO Evolution, make sure that you firmly tighten any screws that have been loosened. Check the condition of the product if the packaging shows damages. Be careful in case of extreme temperatures. BINGO Evolution can heat up significantly when in the sun or in the sauna. In extreme cold, there is a risk of hypothermia. For persons with insensitive skin (ie persons who can not perceive a temperature increase) and / or with skin damage, care must be taken that metal parts do not reach too high a temperature. In these cases, it is imperative to wear appropriate garments to protect the skin. The HOGGI seat cushion (Trevira CS) and the contoured seat cushion (Trevira CS) as well as the HOGGI nylon backrest and seat cover are flame resistant referred to the EN 1021-1 and EN 1021-2 norm. When using other cushions and back cushions, as the original supplied by HOGGI or used in addition padding, the flame retardant effect is not given. Always make sure that the quick-release fastener on the rear wheel engages correctly. 10 4 Delivery and Preparing for Use Your BINGO Evolution rehab pushchair will normally be supplied completely mounted.

To achieve the most compact folding package fold the backrest and remove the rear wheels. 49 7.2 Using BINGO Evolution for bus transport according to ISO 7176-19 and ANSI / RESNA WC-4 7.2.1 Common information • Check that your rehab pushchair is suitable for a crash test. • Check that the vehicle is equipped and compatible for transporting your rehab pushchair. • There should also be enough space for safe transport. • Ensure an upright sitting position during transport. Please note that improper use of a rehab pushchair in a wheeled ambulance can be dangerous beyond typical use. Failure to follow this advice will result in serious injury or death. We recommend that, wherever and whenever possible users transfer to the seats installed in the motor vehicle and use the corresponding vehicle restraint systems, because this is the only way to ensure optimum protection of the passengers in case of an accident. Your BINGO Evolution rehab pushchair was successfully tested in accordance with ANSI/RESNA WC-4 (except size 0/Mini) and ISO 7176-19 (size 1, 2 , 2XL) (Crash Test). It is, however, possible to use your BINGO Evolution rehab pushchair as a seat in a motor vehicle, if our “Tie down Kit” as well as appropriate restraint systems are used. Your BINGO Evolution is admitted for use as a seat in a motor vehicle yet. CAUTION! Important note for BINGO Evolution Mini: With the BINGO Evolution Mini it is absolutely necessary to additionally position and fix the child on the seat using a chest-shoulder harness or a fixation jacket. This is the only way to ensure that especially small children (with a body weight of 12-25 kg) are safely held back by / with the 3-point restraint system in the event of a frontal impact. 7.2.2 Securing the rehab pushchair during bus transport The rehab pushchair may only be used forward in the direction of travel. The rehab pushchair was dynamically tested in the direction of travel while the dummy was attached with lap belt and shoulder strap. 1) If the user finds itself in the rehab pushchair, the rehab pushchair has to be positioned forward and has to be fixed with the fastening and safety belts according to the instruction for use of the restraint system manufacturer (fastening belts referred to WTORS need to fulfil the requirements of ISO 10542 or SAE J2249). 2) The wheelchair has not been tested for transportation in another position. The transportation in a lateral directed position for instance is not allowed at all. 3) Depending on the size of the pushchair the maneuverability can be impaired, so that the turning of the pushchair is not or only partially possible,to position the stroller forward in the direction of travel. 4) The pushchair has to be fixed with a restraint system referred to ISO 10542 or SAE J2249 with fixed belts in the front and adjustable belts in the back. Usually this concerns snap hooks/ s-shaped hooks as well as plug closures. The restraint systems usually consist of 4 single belts, which have to be attached to the 4 edges of the pushchair. The attachment points of the pushchair restraint systems are marked with the international hook symbol. 5) The rehab pushchair may also be supplemented for transport with other positioning and fixation systems. However, these are not a substitute for passenger and rehab pushchair restraint systems and may limit user comfort. 50 Without consulting the manufacturer, no changes may be made to the attachment points of the pushchair or to components of the chassis and frame or they may not be exchanged. Failure to comply with these requirements, the stroller must not be transported in vehicles. In order to reduce the risk of injury to vehicle occupants, tools that are not specifically designed for crash safety, should be removed and stored separately in the vehicle safely such. eg crutches, loose pillows, therapy tables etc. 7.2.3 Buckling the rehab pushchair passenger The user has to be buckled up with the lap belt as well as the shoulder belt. Shoulder and lap belts should be used to minimize and / or avoid potential injury from impact on vehicle components. 1) The person executing the attachment should be trained in the handling of the system. 2) Before transportation the following adjustments of the rehab pushchair have to be carried out: Seat: 0° - 5° Backrest: 90° - 100° Footrest: 90° 3) The angle between lap belt and horizontal has to be 30°- 75°. An angle close to 75° is preferable. 4) The shoulder belt has to run across to chest and shoulder. The belt may not butt at the neck and may not be attached loose from the shoulder. 5) The belt strap may not be twisted. 6) The user‘s head should be additionally secured by a separate and permanently mounted headrest in the bus. 7) Please lock the drum brake firmly 8) Please lock the manual brake firmly 9) Remember, however: In the event of a traffic accident, the risk of injury can only be minimized and not ruled out, even if the passenger and rehab pushchair restraint systems are used correctly. 51 Lap belt and shoulder belt need to butt plane on the body. As far as possible all additives should be detached and stored securely: • crutches, loose cushions and therapy trays You should not rely on the occupant restraint systems unless they are marked in accordance with the requirements of ISO 7176-19: 2008. Care should be taken that the occupant restraint is positioned so that in the event of an accident, the release button is not triggered by pushchair components and results in unintentional opening of the seat belts. Before reusing the pushchair after a collision or an accident with a bus, the pushchair may no longer be used for transport in a bus until it has been checked for possible damage by authorized personnel and then released again.
