Inclines and uneven terrain
When climbing an incline, try to keep your power chair moving. If you must stop, start up again slowly,
and then accelerate cautiously . When driving down an incline ,do so slowly and in the forward direction

come to a complete stop by releasing the joystick. Push the joystick slightly forward and continue
traveling slowly down the incline.

most handicap access ramps. Any attempt to climb a steppers slop may put your power chair in an unstable
position.
