14. Using the wheelchair
This chapter provides safe use information for the occupant and assistant.
14.1 General warnings and advices
Please read this section of the manual very carefully as it contains issues
related to safety and possible hazards.
●
When the user is driving the wheelchair for the first time, the supplier
has to make sure that the maximum driving speed and curving speed are
set in a slow mode. After learning to drive the wheelchair safely, the set
speeds can be increased.
●
Special care should be taken in driving on unequal surfaces such as
slopes, unequal pavements and during descending from footpaths.
●
It is not allowed to carry passengers other than the user on the
wheelchair.
●
On slippery surfaces, like ice and snow, the driving speed must be
reduced accordingly.
●
Do not drive through water puddles, you cannot see how deep they are.
This might lead to dangerous situations. Water can damage the
wheelchair.
●
Only charge the wheelchair in well ventilated areas.
●
Note that no other persons or animals are in the direct contact zone of
the wheelchair when using it. This is for both driving and using the high
low. Because the wheelchair is a very powerful machine with a relative
high weight this might lead to severe injuries.
●
When driving the wheelchair in the dark, be sure that you have the lights
switched on.
●
Always drive slowly in the near surrounding of other people or animals.
●
Although the wheelchair is intensively tested, it cannot be excluded
completely that the wheelchair influences the performance of
electromagnetic fields (e.g. Alarm systems of shops, automatic doors
etc.).
●
The driving characteristics of the wheelchair can be influenced by
strong electromagnetic fields (e.g. Those emitted by portable telephones,
electricity generators or high-power sources.) Try to avoid the near
presence of any radiation source such as radios, cell phones etc. If your
wheelchair reacts to a source of radiation with unexpected behavior, try
to drive slowly to a safe place, turn off your wheelchair and try to
extinguish the radiation source.
