6.3 Getting in / transfer
CAUTION
Getting in and out incorrectly
Risk of falling, tipping, pinching, crushing
►
Turn the control unit off while getting in and out, in
order to avoid accidental driving.
► Note that the armrests are not capable of bearing full
body weight, and therefore must not be used for get­
ting into or out of the wheelchair.
►
Ensure that your limbs are not in the danger area when
swinging the footrests out or in.
The modular design of the power wheelchair and the ease
with which you can remove the side panels and footrests
make it easy to get into and out of the wheelchair from the
side or from the front.
Users can choose the method for getting into and out of the
wheelchair which is most suitable for them.
Getting in from the front
CAUTION
Exposed pinch points
Pinching, crushing of fingers

Ensure that your fingers are not in the danger area
when flipping the footrests up or down.

2) Flip the footrests up (see Fig. 10) or remove them to
gain a larger entry and exit area (see Fig. 11).
3) Have an attendant assist you or use a transfer lifter to
get into and out of the power wheelchair.
4) Flip the footrest down or reinstall it and flip it down (see
Page 19).
