snow, ice or through deep puddles of water).
Never leave your viamobil unsupervised - when switched on or off. If this can,
however, not be avoided, the removal of the rechargeable battery pack protects
against the unauthorised use of your viamobil.
The drive of your viamobil may heat up during longer trips. You should therefore
avoid touching the drive directly after taking out your viamobil (i.e. when loading
the viamobil into the car).
The performance of the viamobil can be influenced by electro-magnetic fields cre-
ated, for example, by mobile phones. The drive add-on is therefore to be switched
off if mobile phones are used in the direct vicinity of the wheelchair.
The viamobil could interfere with other facilities, such as checkpoint security
systems in large department stores.
Pay attention to the following after driving your viamobil:
Switch the viamobil off immediately if you are not using it in order to prevent a
driving impulse from being unintentionally triggered through contact with the
handle bar or to stop the battery from self-discharging.
Recharge the rechargeable battery pack of your viamobil after every drive if possi-
ble.
0.2 Obstacles
Obstacles over 3 cm in height like, for example, kerbs, should only be manoeuvred in
backwards drive.
For this, switch the operating button of your viamobil to the setting „ROLL“, lift
the drive wheels off the ground by operating the pedal (see chapter 2.8) and back
up towards the obstacle.
Pull the wheelchair backwards over the obstacle by using the wheelchair push
handles on the wheelchair, but never use the handles of the viamobil to carry out
this procedure.
The drive wheels can then be released again by operating the pedal, the viamobil
is once again set to the required driving speed by means of the operating button
and you can continue driving.
Pay attention to the instructions in the instruction manual for the wheelchair regar-
ding the maximum obstacle height that can be manoeuvred!
0.3 Danger Spots and Danger Situations
The user of the viamobil independently decides on which routes to utilise by taking
into account his driving skills and physical abilities.
He is to check the viamobil for worn-down or damaged tyres as well as ensure the
state of charge of the batteries and determine whether the control elements are in
working order prior to driving.
These safety inspections as well as personal driving skills are especially important in
regard to the following danger spots, the manoeuvring of which are at the discretion
of the person pushing the viamobil:
quay walls, landing stages, paths and locations on watercourses, unsecured bridges
and dams.
narrow paths, inclines (i.e. ramps and driveways), narrow paths on a slope, moun-
tain paths.
narrow and / or steep downward / sloping paths on main roads or near precipices.
Icy or snow-covered roads or roads covered in leaves.
Ramps and lifting gear on cars.
Uphill or downhill slopes with a maximum incline of 0% can be manoeuvred
with the viamobil. Prerequisites are proper tread patterns, correct air pressure in
the wheelchair wheels, unobjectionable ground conditions and maximum loading
of 20 kg.
There is an increased tendency towards tilting to the side when on winding roads
or when reversing on uphill or downhill slopes due to the shift of balance. These
driving manoeuvres should be carried out with great care and only at low speeds!
