INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
• Never attempt to navigate your powerchair over a kerb or other fixed obstacle taller than the maxi-
mum ground clearance. Refer to section 14 for this information.
Warnung
• Never attempt to navigate your powerchair backwards over an obstacle. Make sure that there are no
steps, kerbs or other obstacles behind you while reversing – tipping / falling risk.
• Never attempt to operate your powerchair on steps or escalators.
9.5 Inclines
Use caution when approaching inclines or declines. If necessary, lower the speed before travelling on a slope.
When travelling up an incline, try to keep the powerchair moving forward. If you must come to a stop, use caution and
slowly accelerate the powerchair forward. When travelling down an incline, lower the speed on your powerchair to the
slowest setting, and proceed cautiously. If the powerchair is travelling down the incline faster than you expected, slowly
return the joystick to the centre to come to a stop, then slightly push the joystick forward again to continue safely down
the incline.
• Drive your powerchair straight up or down an incline, never backwards. Erratic movements, or back
and forth patterns may increase the chance of tipping.
Warning
• Be careful when driving on inclines. Inclines vary and doing so may decrease stability.
• Do not, under any circumstances, travel on a slope greater than the maximum stability angle for this
powerchair. Refer to section 14 for this information. Exceeding the stability angle may cause unsta-
ble conditions.
9.6 Outdoor Operation & Inclement Weather Precautions
Exposure to inclement weather should always be avoided. Monitor weather forecasts before starting a journey to
reduce risks. If you find yourself caught in inclement weather while operating your powerchair, proceed to the closest
shelter immediately. Completely dry your powerchair before operating, charging, or storing.
• Do not take your powerchair on roads or highways.
• Be cautious when driving your powerchair in busy areas, such as shopping malls.
Warnung
• If you get caught outside in the rain, seek shelter immediately and dry the powerchair with a cloth.
• Do not drive your powerchair at night without proper lighting.
• Avoid exposure to moisture, standing water, rain, snow, ice or salt when possible. Operating in rain,
snow, salt, mist and on icy or slippery surfaces may have an adverse effect on the electrical system.
• At extreme temperatures, the batteries may freeze, and your powerchair may not be able to operate.
In extreme high temperatures, it may operate at slower speeds due to a safety feature of the cont-
roller that prevents damage to the motors and other electrical components. Operational limits sta-
ted in section 9.1 must be observed.
• If you are unsure of a surface, such as gravel, it is recommended to avoid it and locate an alternati-
