WARNING!
4.13 Hot surfaces
Not only the motors can get hot during the operation of the
chair, but also the upholstery material and armrests when
standing in the sun.
4.14 Wheelchair range
The range of your wheelchair can be affected by many
factors such as user weight, terrain, ambient temperature,
use of powered op tions and battery condition.
NOTE:
The stated range in the sales literature should be
seen as the theoretical maximum (ISO 7176; Part 4) and
may not be attained by every user (also see section 10.11
and section 13, in this manual).
We recommend that every user initially limit their journey
to half the stated range, until they have confidence in the
actual range their wheelchair can attain.
CAUTION!
If your battery indicator is showing a low charge then do
not attempt a long journey unless you are confident in
reaching your destination and also returning to your home
without the risk of being left stranded.
