Refer to Figures B+C
: Press lightly on the on-off button (1) to activate it. All the diodes of the charge
indicator (2) briefly light up to show the battery condition.
If this is sufficient for your intended journey, you can let the wheelchair move in the desired direction
by means of the steering lever (3).
Î
If you are not familiar with a joystick, first practise on a free, level surface to teach yourself
about the driving and steering properties of the wheelchair.
Beneath the operating unit (for SHARK steering: at the front) you will find the socket for
plugging in the charging apparatus. The connection for the programming unit is also located
here, but this may only be used by trained staff programmers.
Î
Take care that all plugs (charger and, on occasion, the programming unit) are removed before
setting the wheelchair in motion.
