WARNING! Do not cross obstacles at an angle
When you drive over an obstacle, always directly face it. You can drive over
obstacles up to 75 mm (3"). If you drive over higher obstacles, there is a
greater risk of tipping and of damage to the wheelchair. If a car lock is
installed on the wheelchair, it affects the ground clearance.
WARNING! Avoid steep slopes
When you drive downhill, additional precautions must be taken. Select the
lowest maximum speed and proceed with caution. Driving down a slope can
shift your center of gravity forward. Release the joystick if the wheelchair
rolls faster than you would like. This makes the wheelchair stop, and you can
descend again more slowly. Avoid sudden stops and starts.
Drive the wheelchair straight up slopes whenever possible.
4.2 Seat functions
Your wheelchair can have seat functions. A seat function is a power
adjustment.
Due to the custom nature of Permobil products, your wheelchair is equipped
with one of numerous different ways to adjust its seat functions. For
additional information on how to control your wheelchair, refer to any other
documentation received with your wheelchair or contact your Permobil
dealer.
