WARNING
The wheelchairs equipped with the JWX-2 or the are built to be lighter compared to other
electric wheelchairs that use a general lead battery. For this reason, when a person sits in it,
the overall center of gravity shifts higher. Therefore, caution is necessary when traveling on
a curb.
1.5.11. Poor Road Conditions
● Do not travel on gravel roads, bumpy roads,
muddy roads, footpaths, etc. If you have no
choice but to travel on such roads, have an
assistant accompany you.
● Do not drive the wheelchair on a frozen
surface. You may not be able to stop the
wheelchair.
● Go around locations where snow or water has
accumulated or have an assistant accompany
you. In such places where you do not know the
road conditions or if the wheelchair slips, you
could lose control or the brakes may become
ineffective. If the wheelchair travels through a
deep puddle and water enters the drive units,
the wheelchair could stop.
● If you see a dip in the road, or if a sidewalk
dips due to a car ramp, go around it. If you go
straight into it, the wheelchair may tip over. If
you have no choice but to keep going, do so
with an assistant accompanying you to ensure
safety.
