Driving functions
Your dealer can adjust the values for speed, acceleration and
deceleration to your requirements subject to the legal regulations.
For a start select a low mode and increase it while moving if required.
Use the joystick to start moving. The joystick is used simultaneously to
increase the speed and to change the direction of movement. When
the joystick is in central position the electro-magnetical brake is active,
unless the joystick is not moved the wheelchair stands still.
Moving forward:
to move forward in a straight line move the joystick
cautiously forward. The further forward the joystick is moved, the faster
your wheelchair gets. If you release the joystick the wheelchair will
automatically be braked to a stop.
Reversing: to move in reverse mode, move the joystick cautiously back.
The further back the joystick is moved, the faster your wheelchair gets.
If you release the joystick the wheelchair will automatically be braked
to a stop.
Before moving check that the electromagnetic brake
is correctly locked. The safest way is to make sure
the electrical wheelchair is switched OFF!
