1.6 Safety instructions
L
To prevent injury and/or damage to your wheelchair, make sure that no objects and/or
body parts are caught in the rims of the driving wheels.
L
Follow the instructions for using your wheelchair. For example, avoid driving without
brakes against an obstacle (step, edge of the curb) or dropping down from steps.
L
When getting into and out of the wheelchair, do not stand on the footplates. The
footplates should be folded up beforehand.
L
Investigate the effects of shifting the centre of gravity on the behavior of the wheelchair,
for example on up or down gradients, on laterally sloping ground, or when overcoming
obstacles. Obtain support from an attendant.
L
If you want to pick up something (lying in front of, on the side, or to the rear of the
wheelchair), you should not lean too far out to avoid tipping over.
L
When moving through doors, arches, etc. ensure that there is enough room at the sides
so that you do not get your hands or arms caught or crushed and that there is no
damage to the wheelchair.
L
Avoid uncontrolled rolling against obstacles (steps, curbs, doorframes, etc) or dropping
down from ledges. The manufacturer cannot assume liability for damage caused by
overloading, collision or other improper use.

When moving in public places, you are subject to local regulations.

Influence of medicine or alcohol reduces your driving capabilities.

clothes with reflectors and make sure that the reflectors of the wheelchair are clearly
visible and drive with lightning on.
L
Make sure that the lights and reflectors of your electric wheelchair are free from dirt
and/or other objects that could hide them.

When transporting the wheelchair, never pick it up by grasping movable parts (wheels,
arm supports, footrests, etc.)

When transporting the electric wheelchair, no persons may be transferred along with it.
