5.1. Getting out of the Wheelchair
(1) Park the wheelchair on a flat location.
(2) Turn off the power switch.

WARNING
● After you are done traveling in power assist mode, be sure to turn the power off.
If the power is on when you get off the wheelchair, your body may hit against the handrim,
causing it to start moving, and you or people in your surrounding may get injured.
● Get off the wheelchair in a level and stable location. If you park the wheelchair on an incline
and try to get off it from there onto a bed or a chair, you may lose your balance and fall off
the wheelchair.
● Before getting off the wheelchair, make sure that the parking brakes are applied.
If you get off the wheelchair when the parking brakes are released, the wheelchair may
move unexpectedly, causing you to fall out and injure yourself.
