2. Extending drive wheels
When not in use, the drive wheels [7] of the viaplus are located approx. 2 cm above
the ground. This allows you to move the wheelchair without the viaplus.
To activate the electric push and braking aid, you must first lower the two wheels [7]
to the ground. To do this, proceed as follows:
Hold the wheelchair by its handles.
Using the tip of your foot, fold down the pedal [6] of the viaplus from its resting
position.
When the pedal [6] is in its centre position, push it down firmly with your foot
to extend the two retracted drive wheels [7].
When the wheels [7] are extended, swivel the pedal [6] back to its initial resting
position.
!
After each use, swivel the pedal [6] back to its resting position!
If the pedal [6] is not swivelled to its resting position, the
viaplus could malfunction and the braking behaviour of the
viaplus might be impaired!
