MECHANICAL ADJUSTMENT OF THE SEAT DEPTH
The seat depth can be adjusted in 3 steps of 30mm. If
you want to adjust the depth of the chair you have to
remove the motor of the electrical adjustment of the back
first (if you have chose this option) so you can reach the
desired bolts. (2) Remove first these 2 bolts. When you
remove the 2 bolts at each side of the seat frame (3) you
can change the seat depth to the desired depth.
The bolts must be tightened properly afterwards.
ELECTRICAL INCLINATION OF THE SEAT
If you have selected the electrical seat inclination, your wheelchair has been equipped with this
system before delivery. To operate this, it is only necessary to switch the steering unit on. The driving
program will switch on automatically. Now you have to push the function button (13 on page 6) and
select the inclination of the seat function (8 on page 6) using the joystick by pushing it sidewards. The
control lamp indicates which function you have selected. You can adjust the slope of the seat by
pushing the joystick forwards or pulling it backwards.
For easier stowing of the electric wheelchair in a vehicle, the back can be folded forwards (after
removing the seat) or backwards. Under the seat on the left-hand side you find a blocking pin (1)
which can be released by pulling it.
L
Make sure no objects and/or persons are inside the swinging reach of the wheelchair, either in
front or at the rear, since this could cause damage and/or injury.
L
For your safety this function can only be adjusted when the wheelchair is standing still. When
this function is selected, the driving program is disabled.
ELECTRICAL ADJUSTMENT OF THE BACK
The back can be adjusted in a similar way as the seat. You only have to select the inclination of the
back function (9 on page 6) so you can tilt the back according to your wishes, by pushing or pulling the
joystick.
