5.2.2 Switching off the system

Once you have completed your trip and you will not be using your wheelchair for an 
extended period of time, you should always switch off the e-fix. Firstly, this saves energy 
and secondly, the e-fix is not inadvertently deployed by accidentally touching the joy-
stick.

 

Press button [26]. The control unit is switched off; the display [25] disappears.

 

Apply the parking brakes on your wheelchair to prevent the chair inadvertently rolling 
away.

5.2.3 Using the joystick to travel

The e-fix is moved using the joystick [21] by means of which the user can determine the 
speed and the direction of travel.

Even slightly moving the joystick in the desired direction of travel will start travel at low 
speed. This increases, the further the joystick is deflected. The pre-set maximum speed 
(see chapter 5.5) is achieved by fully deflecting the joystick. When travelling in reverse, 
the speed is automatically reduced for safety reasons.

In the display [25], the speed is shown in position [54] as follows:

 

the pre-set speed as a green bar chart and briefly as a green number

 

current speed when travelling as a white number

When travelling in reverse, 0 km/h is displayed as a white number.

Start your first travelling attempts at a low speed in order to accus-

tom yourself to the travel characteristics of the e-fix.

Adapt the speed to the respective travelling situations. Reduce the 

maximum speed, particularly in difficult travel conditions and in 

indoor use to prevent accidents.

Do not use the swivel arm or the control unit for support. Always use 

the armrest on the wheelchair for support, for assistance with stand-

ing up or to adjust your seating position!

If the horizontal installation position of the holder with control unit 

is changed/bent by using it for support or by using the control unit 

itself for support, the holder must be returned to its original hori-

zontal position. This adjustment can only be made by an Alber-au-

thorised specialist dealer.
