Only transfer into or out of the electric
wheelchair when the electric wheelchair
is switched off and the selection lever
drive-/push mode on both sides is in drive
mode!
An unintentional movement of the joy-
sticks (driving and steering lever) can oth-
erwise lead to an uncontrolled start of the
electric wheelchair! – Danger of accident!
Securing the electric wheelchair
The electric wheelchair is to be secured as
follows to prevent it from rolling off unin-
tentionally:
1. Switch the selection lever for drive-/
push mode up to drive mode on both
sides.
2. Switch off the operating module.
Functional checks
The functions and safety of the electric
wheelchair must be checked before the
start of each journey.

panying documentation.
Driving
You define the speed and direction yourself
with the joystick movements (driving and
steering lever) while driving as well as the
preadjusted maximum final speed of your
electric wheelchair.

BRAKES
Brake the vehicle down carefully and in
time. This is especially the case when driv-
ing in front of people and while driving
downhill!

ly guide the joystick (steering and driving
lever) back to the centre position (zero-set-
ting).
