storing or maintaining the UNAwheel Mini and its adapters.

Use

1.5
Before use, check all connections, battery level, brake function of the UNAwheel
•
and wheelchair parking brakes, display, and the central adapter. Never travel
when anything listed above is not working correctly.
Make sure the brakes are working correctly before using the product on a slope.
•
Risk of toppling! Your wheelchair with connected UNAwheel represents a three-
•
wheeled means of transport. When turning corners, crossing obstacles and
travelling perpendicular to slopes a three-wheel vehicle tends to tip over more
easily than a four-wheel vehicle. Adjust your driving behaviour and your speed
accordingly.
Turn corners only at low speeds adapted to the driving conditions in order to
•
avoid toppling the wheelchair and UNAwheel.
Become familiar with the product on level ground before using it on a slope. This
•
prevents potentially dangerous situations such as toppling and collision.
Never go perpendicular to slopes, cross obstacles only in forward direction.
•
Do not drive faster than 6 km/h (4 mph) on public roads.
•
Do not use the product without assistance on slopes.
•
Do not use product while going downhill or uphill if battery level is less than 50%.
•
The product is splash-proof, but not waterproof. Do not use the product during
•
rain and avoid mud and puddles.
In the (unlikely) event of the battery pack overheating or catching on fire, you
•
must ensure that the battery pack does not come into contact with water or other
liquids. The only suitable extinguishing agent that is recommended by the battery
manufacturers is sand.
The wheelchair user must decide in each case whether it is safe to travel the
•
intended trip based on factors such as driving experience and physical strength.
Particular importance in or near the following hazardous areas, the navigation of
which is left to the judgement and risk of the UNAwheel user:
– Quay walls, berths and marinas, paths and areas near water, bridges and dykes
without railings
– Narrow footpaths, gradients (e.g. ramps and driveways), narrow paths along
slopes, mountain paths
