WARNING!
Risk of overturning
There is a high risk of overturning during the
transfer.
– Only get in and out without assistance if you
are physically able to do so.
– When transferring, position yourself as far
back as possible in the seat. This will prevent
damaged upholstery and the possibility of the
wheelchair tipping forward.
– Make sure that both castors are facing straight
to the front.

– Do not support yourself on the brakes when
getting in and out.
