While operating the add-on drive, keep an eye on the LED status
indicator [] for possible fault signals (see also chapter 6.2).
If the indicator flashes at uniform intervals during driving, the
battery pack of the viaplus needs to be recharged. Terminate your
trip with the viaplus as soon as possible. If this is not possible,
switch off the viaplus as soon as this is possible (see chapter 2.6)
and retract the drive wheels (see chapter 2.7). You can then push
the wheelchair without the assistance of the add-on drive.
!
When driving along bends, turning the wheelchair or driving uphill
or downhill, the centre of gravity of the wheelchair might be shifted
so that there is a risk that the wheelchair might tip over to the side.
Therefore proceed with extreme care and reduce the speed of the add-
on drive!
!
For safety reasons, the brakes are automatically applied if the
wheelchair is moving too fast (pushed or rolling freely).
!
Never secure the driving lever [2] in a position using a strap or
similar object. Only operate the driving lever with your thumb.
!
Do not attach bags or similar objects to the handlebars of the
wheelchair or to the driving lever [2], as this could prevent
the lever from returning to its neutral position.
