The same serial number can also be found on the front of the User Manual.

Version 2.0.
Medema Production A/S Driving the MC Concept 1103 MC Concept is a modern device, specially developed to help you achieve maximum mobility. Before getting on or off the vehicle, you must check the following: • • • • That the wheelchair is switched off. That the wheelchair is not disengaged. That the wheelchair and the seat you are moving to are both stable. Avoid placing your full body weight on the footrests. This may tip the wheelchair forwards.
Medema Production A/S Changes of level Never attempt to climb onto raised objects or kerbs higher than 4 cm. Always approach changes of level head on, with the front and back wheels moving in a straight line. (See below.) This reduces the possibility of tipping. Note! If your MC Concept/vehicle is fitted with a docking system from Dahl Engineering, note that the clearance is reduced to 3 cm.
Medema Production A/S 11 tips for driving the MC Concept: • Reduce the speed when turning corners and going downhill. • Reduce the speed when driving on inclines. Maximum incline = 8° = 14% • Reduce the speed when driving on a sideways incline. Maximum sideways incline = 8° • Avoid driving and parking in the rain • Avoid parking on snow and ice. • Always park on a level (flat) surface. • Avoid driving on rough ground.
Medema Production A/S Driving on public roads: When driving on public roads, footpaths, pedestrian streets, car parks, shopping centres, etc. you must make sure you adjust your speed and distance for other users. At 7 km/h you must follow the traffic rules applicable to cyclists. This also means that your lights must be switched on during lighting-up time. (Optional extra) On footpaths, the maximum speed is 6 km/h. In this situation you are regarded as a pedestrian.
Medema Production A/S Brakes The MC Concept is equipped with two sets of brakes: The motor brake and the parking brake. Motor braking: When you drive downhill, the control unit of the MC Concept applies the motor brake. Parking brake: When the vehicle is stationary and the joystick is not moved, a magnetic brake is automatically applied to each drive unit. For driving, the magnetic brake is released first, after which the MC Concept can be driven as described above.
Medema Production A/S Fuses If the indicator light flashes to indicate overheating: • • • Switch off the vehicle Wait for 3 minutes Restart On the right of the MC Concept behind the seat, there is a thermal fuse protecting the battery circuit. The fuse is white. If it pops out, you can push it back in again after a few minutes. If it immediately pops out again, contact your authorised dealer. There are no external fuses that need to be replaced. The thermal fuse is here.
Medema Production A/S Batteries The battery indicator shows how much power is available to the powered wheelchair. • • • Red, amber and green indicate that the batteries are fully charged. Red and amber indicate that the batteries will soon need recharging. Red indicates that the batteries need to be recharged as soon as possible, otherwise the powered wheelchair will cut out. The MC Concept’s batteries should be charged while not in use. This extends the service life of the batteries.
Medema Production A/S Charging Charging 1 Plug the cable into the control box on the powered wheelchair. 2 Plug the charger into the outlet or switch it on. 3 Use the indicator lights on the charger to check that charging has started. 4 When charging has finished, switch off or unplug the charger, and then remove the charger cable from the control box. The actual battery indicator on the vehicle will show “full” after charging for a short time.
Medema Production A/S General care If you get food or drink, etc. on the control unit, you should wipe it with a damp cloth. You must only use a damp cloth to clean the MC Concept. Note! Using a high-pressure cleaner or hose may damage the powered wheelchair’s electronic system. Service intervals The MC Concept is designed to require a minimum of maintenance. However, you are recommended to take it to your dealer for an annual inspection.
Medema Production A/S Storage The powered wheelchair should be stored and charged under cover, preferably at temperatures above 10°C. Note! The charger must be kept dry, but should not be covered when in use. For long-term storage we recommend covering the MC Concept 1103 to protect it from dust, rain and sunlight. Transporting by motor vehicle The MC Concept 1103 must ALWAYS be secured while being transported. To lift the powered wheelchair, use the pivot wheels at the front and back.
