10.5 - Drive uphill
The international law fixes the safety gradient to drive an electric wheelchair without difficulties.
The slope is 6°/12%. The Moretti electric wheelchair can do up to the safety gradient. In case you are
driving on the maximum slope you need the maximum speed, so use the proper button to increase
the speed. Be careful in case of high slopes.
10.6 - Drive downhill
To proceed with caution in dangerous slopes use the proper button to decrease the speed, in order
to have the best control on the wheelchair. Anyway the electric wheelchair is provided with an auto-
matic braking system which operate whether you try to increase the speed. During the downhill we
recommend to drive carefully, and never stop the wheelchair in dangerous slopes.
