9. Tips on First-time Driving
Your viamobil has been prepared by Alber or your specialist dealer and delivered to
you. We would therefore like to subsequently give you two tips on first-time driving.
•
Both drive wheels of the viamobil are approx 2 cm above the ground when in
resting position. You thus have the opportunity of moving the wheelchair without
the help of viamobil.
•
Use the lowest possible speed (operating button for speed selection on setting
„1“) on the viamobil when driving for the first time and become familiar with the
driving properties of the viamobil. You can then gradually increase the speed and
drive both backwards and forwards. You should get a feeling for driving your via-
mobil safely after just a couple of minutes.
