BASIC DRIVING
Make sure you have completed the details described under “Mounting”
To start moving forward turn your Venice on and push the joystick gently forward.
To STOP gently release the joystick to the centre position and the brake will apply.
Practice these two basic functions at slow speed until you are proficient in their use.
Steering the Venice Powerchair is easy and logical. To turn right or left move the
joystick in the direction you wish to proceed.
When the Venice turns, it will decelerate to ensure a safe and smooth directional
change.
If it is a tight turn (entering a doorway or going around a blind corner) STOP your
Venice Powerchair and lower your speed. Push your joystick in the direction you
wish to proceed, the Venice will move in this direction. Once the Venice is
positioned in the direction you wish to travel, push your joystick forward (ensure
your speed is set to the slowest setting).
The Venice Powerchair will move gently and with complete stability.
REVERSING
(Requires your attention)
Always set your speed to SLOWEST setting before you back up.
Pull the Joystick backwards with your hand.
Always proceed slowly.
The Venice power chairs are
not
designed for use in loose gravel, sand or grass.
RAMPS
The stability of your power chair is governed by several factors such as the seating
position of the occupant, (ie the position of the seat backrest) the angle of the slope,
your height and weight. When approaching an incline, do so directly, avoid driving
up on an angle. Where ever possible avoid making turns on any incline or decline.
When going down a slope set the speed setting to SLOW, this will ensure there is a
safe controlled decent. When the control lever is released the powerchair will slow
to a stop.
If you do not feel safe going down a slope DO NOT use it. Find an alternative
route. Please follow all the guidelines and your power chair will perform admirably
over many surfaces.
TRANSPORTING YOUR POWER CHAIR
Always ensure your chair is turned OFF on the joystick.
Remove the controller power cable from the mounting point under the seat. Pull the
plug from the base gently wiggling slightly if necessary.
Now lift the seat up and away from the base of the Venice powerchair (Refer
picture 1)
Split the base section into two pieces by using the release lever and separating the
parts. (Refer pictures 2, 3)
The unit can now be placed in the car.
The armrests can be removed to assist in fitting the seat into the car. This is done by
loosening the knobs that adjust the armrests in and out.
