15.3 Stopping the wheelchair
If you would like to stop, simply move the joystick slowly towards the center
and release the joystick. The wheelchair will come to a gentle stop. If you want
to stop more quickly, simply let go of the joystick. It will put itself back into
neutral position, which makes the wheelchair stop. If there an emergency and
you need to make an emergency stop, pull the joystick backwards. This will
slow down and stop the wheelchair very fast.
16. Using the powered seat functions
This chapter specifies the power seat functions which can be operated by
the occupant during normal use.
16.1 Seat tilt
To tilt the chair, first turn on controller from On/Off button. Then, press the
Seat Position button on your control panel. You will see the Seat Position
indicator light up.
Pull the joystick towards the user
Be careful driving backwards. You cannot really oversee where you are
driving. It is better, when the space is available, to turn around and drive
forward. By driving backwards not seeing where you are heading you might
bump into something or someone. This can lead to personal or material
damage.
Be careful using the emergency brake. Especially when driving on slopes.
Extreme braking might create the risk of tipping over when you are on a
slope. Also, be aware that during braking you tend to lose balance yourself.
If not strapped into a seat belt you might run the risk of falling out of your
wheelchair whilst braking very hard.
