Transfer tilt – if fitted (Frontier Only)
The transfer tilt option allows the seat front to be lowered by up to 2.75”/70mm to improve the
ease of transferring in and out of the power wheelchair. All of the wheelchair driving functionality is
turned off while the chair is tilted forwards to prevent damage to the legrests and footplates which
could occur with the seat in this position.
To operate the transfer tilt:
Bring your power chair to a complete stop on a flat level surface
Select transfer tilt seat on the P&G controller. Once the power elevating seat option is
highlighted (as shown to the right), moving the joystick forward or backwards will operate the
function.
Once the seat reaches its lowest position, the action stops; release the joystick at this point.
Always be sure that the mechanism has returned the seat back to its highest position or the
wheelchair will not drive.
5.8
Slope Sensor (Inclinometer) – if fitted
The slope sensor option enables the chair to be aware of its backrest angle relative to the horizon.
This includes the accumulation of
backrest
recline,
seating tilt
and
ground incline
put together. The
slope sensor uses this information to minimise the chance of the chair becoming unstable through
body weight being too far back.
5.8.1
Backrest Angle Inhibits
The inhibit/s depending upon the backrest angle are as follows:
Backrest Angle Resulting Inhibit

5.8.2
Seat Raise Inhibits
A further inhibit may be activated depending upon the height of seat lift. When lifted above a certain
height, your LCD Joystick Module will display an orange turtle or your LED Joystick Module’s speed
indicator lights will flash. This indicates that due to the seat elevation, the chair will experience the
following inhibits:
Speed
Tilt Back
Recline Back

Troubleshooting
If your chair has a slope sensor and a function does not seem to be operating
