Safety instructions
General
An electric wheelchair is a motorized vehicle and special care must, therefore, be taken
when it is used.
Incorrect use may both injure the user and damage the chair. In order to reduce these
risks, you should read the Owner’s Manual carefully, in particular the safety instructions
and their warning texts.
Any inappropriate modifications to the wheelchair and its various systems may entail an
increased risk of accidents. Carefully follow the recommendations in the Handling section
to prevent the risk of accidents in connection with driving.
All modifications to and interventions in the vital systems of the wheelchair must be
performed by a qualified service technician. Always contact a qualified service technician
in cases of doubt.
Warning

increased risk of accidents. Always use the positioning belt on the Chairman 2s Lowrider.
