WARNING!

Risk of breaking down in adverse weather conditions, i.e. extreme cold, in an 

isolated area

•  If you are a user with severely limited mobility, we advise that in the 

case of adverse weather conditions DO NOT attempt a journey 

without an accompanying attendant.

WARNING!

Risk of injury if your foot slides off the footrest and gets caught underneath the 

mobility device when it is in motion

•  Make sure each time before you drive the mobility device that your 

feet are squarely and securely in place on the footplates, and that 

both leg rests are properly locked into place.

WARNING!

Risk of injury if you collide with an obstacle when driving through narrow 

passages such as doorways and entrances

•  Drive through narrow passages in the lowest driving mode and with 

due caution.

WARNING!

Risk of injury

If your mobility device has been fitted with elevating leg rests, there is a risk of 

personal injury and damage to the mobility device if you drive the mobility 

device with the leg rests raised.

•  To avoid unwanted displacement of the mobility device centre of 

gravity to the front (especially when travelling downhill) and in order 

to avoid damage to the mobility device, elevating leg rests must 

always be lowered during.
