Using the tilt function – pull the cable lightly upward and tilt the chair to the desired position.
This operation requires less effort if you push against one of the back legs with your foot whilst activating the handle.
Do not lift from the shoulders and always keep a straight back.
Ensure that the user keep his/her hands inside the armrest when going through doors and corridors. The user
should sit calmly during this kind of movement.

maximum stability.
Brake the wheels if there is any danger of inadvertent movement ie. on a ramp or other slope.

that sling straps cannot get tangled around wheels or similar. It is the carers/institutions responsibility to ensure that
using the chair is safe and secure according to relevant laws/demands.
