1.5. Warnings and Notes for the Operation
Read this manual before using the product.
Read this manual carefully to ensure safe and comfortable operation. After reading it, store it where it can
be accessed easily for future reference.
Unless specifically noted, the following information applies to when the user is operating the wheelchair
themselves and when an assistant is operating the wheelchair using the assistant operations.
1.5.1. Before Using the Wheelchair after Purchasing the Unit
WARNING
● Before using the wheelchair, be sure to assess your competence and determine whether or
not you need an assistant.
Moreover, in determining the necessity of an assistant, consult expert opinions as a point
of reference.
If your judgment is based solely on your own opinion, you or other people around you may
get injured.
● Practice traveling on a level and safe area with an assistant accompanying you, until you
are comfortable with the operation. If you go on public roads while still unfamiliar with the
operation, you or other people around you may get injured.
1.5.2. Before Use Each Day
WARNING
● Perform the daily checks before use each day. Make a habit out of inspecting the
wheelchair. Continued use of the wheelchair with a problem in the wheelchair body or the
wheels may cause damage to the wheelchair while traveling, and may result in a rollover or
fall.
● Before using the wheelchair each day, ensure that
there is air in the tires. Always keep the air pres-
sure in the rear tires at a normal level. If the air
pressure in the rear tires decreases, the parking
brakes may become ineffective.
