General Information for Stand-up Wheelchairs
Dear Customer
We would like to thank you for putting your trust in LEVO stand-up wheelchairs.
The LEVO stand-up wheelchair is a unique aid for use by those facing difficulties
walking and standing up. As well as performing all the functions of an active
wheelchair, the LEVO enables you to stand up on your own.
Please read this Manual and the Instructions carefully before using your LEVO. They
contain important information necessary for successful operation of the wheelchair.
Going into standing position may load the body in a way that the body is
perhaps not used to.
Therefore ensure before using your stand-up wheelchair by your doctor or
physical therapist that there are no contraindications such as strong
contractures or osteoporosis present.
In the case of strong or sudden spasms, cramps or similar the user is allowed
to stand under the supervision of an accompanying person.
Contact your LEVO dealer, agent or LEVO AG if you have a visual impairment.
Whether you use your LEVO as a stand-up aid in everyday life, or to help with
standing exercises, it guarantees you optimum independence, mobility and health.
As a LEVO customer, you have a valuable contribution to make to the on-going
further development of our products. We always appreciate your suggestions, which
ensure that LEVO still offers the most comprehensive service available and provides
for the widest possible range of needs.
Yours faithfully,
LEVO AG
