Safety Instructions - General
Your wheelchair was configured specifically for your needs as prescribed by
your healthcare provider. Consult your healthcare provider before changing the
seat position or making any other adjustment. Some adjustments may reduce
your wheelchair’s performance or safety or may not be appropriate for your
needs.
It is also of the utmost importance that you devote sufficient time to become
acquainted with the different buttons, the function and steering controls, the dif-
ferent adjustment possibilities of the seat, etc. of your wheelchair and its acces-
sories before you begin using it.
Do not undertake your own first test drive without making sure that you have
assistance in the immediate vicinity if you should need help.
In order to make sure that nothing happened to the wheelchair while it was
being shipped to you, you should check the following items before beginning
to use it:
• that all products ordered are included in the delivery, incuding operating
instructions and possible other documentation. If you suspect that something
is missing, then contact your supplier or Permobil for more information as soon
as possible.
• that no transport-related or other damages have occurred to the wheelchair
and its accessories. If you discover that something has been damaged or in
some other manner appears to be incorrect, then contact your supplier or
Permobil for more information as soon as possible before you continue the
checks.
We recommend that you charge your wheelchair’s batteries before you begin
using it. The chapter titled ”Charging the Batteries” describes how to do this.
Always be sure that tires are inflated properly before driving.
If you experience that the wheelchair in any manner is not behaving as expected
or if you suspect that something is wrong: abort the test drive as soon as
possible, shut off the wheelchair and get in touch with your service contact or
Permobil for more information.
