Elevator Use
The electric wheelchair is not suitable for traveling up and down stairs nor on an escalator. Pay attention to the following
cautions when using the elevator:
➢
Do not use the wheelchair on an escalator so as to avoid a serious injury.
➢
The elevator can be used when you are sitting on the wheelchair but it is recommended that you push the wheelchair
into the elevator when the door is opened vs riding the wheelchair inside.
If the user wants to move the electric wheelchair between floors by stairs, follow the recommended suggestions below:
➢
Move the user from the electric wheelchair and fold it. Remember, before folding, the joystick must be taken off.
➢
When carrying the electric wheelchair up and down stairs be careful to avoid bumping it or damaging the chair.
The safety belt is designed to prevent the rider from sliding forward from the
seat and not designed to protect the user from an accident.
Installation of the safety belt:
➢
The rider needs to ensure that the safety belt is around the waist and the bottom part of the
wheelchair’s backrest. After sitting, insert the two plastic buckles together until you hear a click.
Adjust the plastic safety belt to the appropriate length, do not over tighten, which may cause
discomfort.
Unfasten the safety belt:
➢
Press the buttons of the plastic buckle’s top and bottom to release the safety belt and separate the two
halves.
