ADJUSTMENT
Read this manual before you use the
wheelchair for the first time and follow
the instructions carefully. If children or
teenagers will be using the wheelchair,
they should first read this manual along
with their parents or guardians before us-
ing the chair.
As a general rule, any type of adjustment
or customisation must be performed by a
distributor.
Before you use the joystick module for the
first time, your distributor must adjust it.
Aside from your driving experience and
special needs, this adjustment must also
take into account the environment in which
the wheelchair primarily will be used.
If your needs or requirements change, the
distributor can adjust the sensitivity of the
joystick.
☞
We recommend routine inspection of
the joystick module settings to ensure
optimal long-term comfort, including
whenever your medical/disability situ-
ation changes.
USE AFTER A PERIOD OF
STORAGE
The joystick module may be put into use
again. Before any reuse, the module must
be thoroughly inspected for any defects or
malfunctions.
☞
Hygienic measures, including disinfec-
tion, must be performed in accordance
with a validated hygiene plan.
PRODUCT LIFE SPAN
We estimate that the product should have
an expected average life span of
4 years
,
provided it is used for its intended purpose
and all maintenance and service require-
ments are met. The actual life span depends
on how frequently the product is used, the
environment where it is used and the care
that it receives. Replacement parts may al-
low you to prolong the product’s life span.
As a rule, replacement parts can still be ob-
tained for up to 5 years after a model has
been phased out of production.
☞
This indicated estimated life span shall
not constitute any expression of the
warranty period.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
☞
Do not throw or drop the dismantled
joystick module. Handle it carefully at
all times! This is the only way to ensure
continuous, error-free operation.
☞
Do not unplug the connector while
driving.
☞
When driving, only press the ON/OFF
button in an emergency.
– This stops the electric wheelchair
(emergency braking).
☞
Do not plug any objects aside from the
manufacturer’s original charger plugs
into the joystick module charging sock-
et.
– Risk of a short circuit!
