• The locking brake must not be used for braking when the
wheelchair is moving.
• When braking at fast speeds or on long downward slopes when
using the push rims, fingers and hand surfaces become hot.
Caution! Danger of burning!
• We recommend that leather gloves are used for use outdoors. These
increase grip and protect fingers and hands from dirt and injury at
the same time.
• Please note that padded parts can become hot in direct sunlight
and lead to skin injury on contact. Therefore, cover these parts or
protect the wheelchair from direct sunlight.
• When transferring between wheelchair and bed, always ensure that:
• both locking brakes are applied
• the side part on the side for getting in/out is swung backwards.
• the foot plates (for getting in/out) are folded upwards, swing
inwards/outwards or are removed.
2.2. Advice Regarding EMC
Interference
Despite meeting all applicable EMC guidelines and standards it is
possible that the wheelchair will experience interference from other
electrical devices (e. g. cell phones) or interfere with these. Should you
notice such interference, either turn off the other device or your electric
wheelchair and move it outside the interference range.
2.3. Brakes
After letting go of the joy-stick, the automatic brakes will slow the
wheelchair until it comes to a complete stop. In push mode, the drive
mechanism is decoupled and there is no handbrake. To secure the chair
you have to engage the drive again.

Please note that operating the wheelchair in
push mode by uncoupling the drive mechanism
will deactivate the electro-magnetic brakes. The
wheelchair should therefore only be used on level
ground in this mode. Non-observance may lead to
life-threatening situations.

2.4. Use on Public Roads

The wheelchair is designed for indoor and outdoor use. Please keep in
mind that you are using public roads and therefore have to observe all
road traffic regulations.
Do not endanger other road users through inconsiderate driving,
especially on walkways.
2.5. Purpose
The Terra/Terra SX electric wheelchair is designed for indoor and
outdoor use by persons with impaired mobility.
It is therefore sufficiently compact and agile for indoor use and also
capable of handling medium distances and overcoming small obstacles
outdoors. It is classified under category B according to the EN 12184
standard. The maximum weight capacity is 136 kg.
Please note:
We are only able to issue a guarantee if the product is used in
accordance with the specified conditions and for the specified purpose.

2.6. Indications for Use

Inability or severely impaired ability to walk due to:
• paralysis
• loss of limb
• defect/deformity of limb
• joint contracture
• joint damage (not in both arms)
• other diseases
The provision of an electric wheelchair is indicated if the use of a hand-
driven wheelchair is no longer possible but the proper operation of an
electric drive is possible.
