Driving Rules
Always bear in mind that high speed and extended braking distance entail an increased risk
of accidents.
Never drive rapidly or at full speed along narrow passages, on narrow sidewalks, etc. where an
incorrect maneuver or incorrect steering can cause an increased risk of accidents.
Always drive at low speed on uneven surfaces.
Keep in mind that driving across slopes will have an effect on the wheelchair and could make it
steer to the side. Never drive at full speed across slopes.
Use of the seat lift, backrest/seat tilt function changes the wheelchair’s center of gravity, which can
have a negative effect on the wheelchair’s handling characteristics while it is being driven. You
should never drive at full speed when the seat lift is elevated, or when the seating system has an
extreme backrest angle or tilt angle.
You must be extremely careful and drive at slow speed when driving downhill or uphill on an
uneven surface,for example, grass, gravel, sand, ice and snow. Failure to do so may result in
personal injury and/or damage to the wheelchair.
