Standing up stresses your body in ways you may not be used to. Therefore we
recommend, consulting your doctor or physical therapist before using the
standing function of the
LEVO C
3
.
Driving long distances in the standing position is not recommended in outdoor
areas. The function is meant primary for moving around indoors, as in the
kitchen or in the office for example.
The
LEVO C
3
is only allowed to bring you into the stand-up position when the
free wheel device is "ON", this guarantees the motor brakes function correctly.
Do not stand-
up while the chair is in “free wheel” configuration!
You should only bring the
LEVO C
3
into standing position if the chair is on
even, solid ground. If this condition is not respected, there is a danger of
tipping over.
It’s absolutely essential to mount the knee s
upport and the chest belt correctly
before you use the stand-up function or begin driving (see section 9.2.)
.).
You should under no circumstances attempt to stand up without
following all safety precautions.
Do not lift the wheelchair using the mobile parts. This can lead to damage to
property or persons and/or damage to the wheelchair.
The chest belt is exclusively intended to hold the torso of the user while
driving and standing. It is not intended as a protective device for collisions
and/or accidents.
We recommend standing up only when accompanied in case of sudden
spasticity, convulsions and similar problems.
