INFORMATION
The control device emits an error signal on the control panel if the joystick is activated while the brake is disabled.
If this is not the case, there is a malfunction that has to be promptly rectified by the qualified personnel.
It is possible to push the power wheelchair in case of control unit failure or insufficient battery charge level.
To do so, the brake is deactivated via the mechanical release. The brake releases are located on the right and left
