● When getting in and out of the wheelchair please use the manual parking
brakes. The manual parking brake is the lever at the side of the

chair from sliding away. Also see that the footplates are flipped up for
ease of entering or exiting. (See Figure 4.57)

recommended tire pressure for the same reason.
● Please ensure that occupant's fingers do not get caught in the brake.
