BASIC SAFETY
INFORMATION
This safety information is an extract of the
Safety and general handling instructions ,
that can be found on our website: < www.
meyra.com > .
Do not insert fingers into open frame
tubes (for example after removing the
support castors). – Danger of injury!
Scuttling (rolling motion of the wheel-
chair with help of the feet) is only permit-
ted with creeping rolling speed on hori-
zontal, level surfaces indoors.
When scutteling watch for the possibility
of jamming the feet.
In doing so the sitting position may not
be slid onto the front third of the seat.
A stable sitting position is to kept while
using the wheelchair, even when not in
motion and especially on hills and slopes.
– Danger of accident!
In a safe sitting position the back of the
user lies directly on the back support up-
holstery and the hip of the user is at the
back end of the seat.
Transit out of the wheelchair on hills/
slopes may only be carried out in emer-
gencies and with the aid of an accompa-
nying person and/or helper! – Danger of
accident!
Increased danger of tipping over when
using the angle adjustable back support.
You should not smoke while using the
wheelchair.
Exposure to direct sunlight can cause seat
covers/upholstery, arm support pads, leg
supports and handles to heat up to over
41 °C. – Contact with exposed skin can
result in injury! Prevent such heating by
parking the wheelchair in a shaded area.
Special attachment points for fastening
objects that are to be carried along are
not provided.
Accompanying person
The accompanying person must be made
aware of all possible danger situation before
the start of his/her supportive involvement.
The parts of your wheelchair that are held
onto by the accompanying person are to be
checked for tight fit.
Transfer out of the wheelchair
Drive with the wheelchair as closely as pos-
sible to the spot where you want to switch
out of the wheelchair.

☞
We recommend to conduct the trans-
fer from the wheelchair together with
an aid.
Reaching for objects
Avoid an extreme forward or backward in-
clination of the upper body when picking
up or placing heavy objects. – Danger of
wheelchair tipping over, especially in the
case of narrow seat widths and high seat
heights (seat cushion)!
Driving on falling, rising or trans-
verse gradients
For safety reasons, the maximum permitted
gradient is limited because the tip-over sta-
bility and the braking and steering behav-
iour are impaired by a reduced floor/road.
