A. SAFETY
If you follow the instructions given in this manual, you will enjoy many trouble-free years of use: This vehicle is not
designed for use on the road except for crossing from one kerb to another. Load data always refers to one single
person as operator. The wheelchair is authorised for use by one person.
1. Preliminary checks: You should not try to manoeuvre at full speed. If you have to make a sudden turn, slow
down first using the joystick or the speed control knob. This is very important if you are going down a hill. Lack of
attention to this point may result in your overturning the wheelchair. Always check that the wheelchair is switched off
before trying to get in or out. Always check that you can operate all the controls from a comfortable seated position.
It is essential to pay attention to posture in order to assure comfort and well-being. Always check that the freewheel
device is switched off before setting the chair in motion. Always check that you can be seen clearly, especially if you
are using the wheelchair in conditions of low visibility.
