Warning: Do not enter or exit the wheelchair without first turning the wheelchair
power switch OFF, and ensuring that the drive engagement levers are engaged, to
prevent wheelchair movement.
Warning: Operate only with anti-tippers in place.
Warning: Disengaging the rear wheel levers will also disengage the electromechani-
cal park brakes and allow the wheelchair to roll.
Warning: Do not lean over the top of the wheelchair back. This could cause the
wheelchair to tip.
Warning: Before leaning or reaching forward: To reduce the risk of tipping, sit back
in the seat and rotate casters fully toward front of wheelchair.
Warning: Do not stand or step on the footplates while transferring to or from your
wheelchair. This could cause the wheelchair to tip.
Warning: Ensure that no water, moisture, or other liquid enters the integral control-
ler.
Warning: The integral controller programs should be adjusted only by a qualified
therapist or technician. This person must evaluate the user’s ability, weight, and
physical condition, the environment in which the wheelchair will be used, and the
terrain over which the wheelchair will travel. A wide range of adjustment and ver-
satility is provided so that the requirements of many different abilities may be met,
and the person setting the driving characteristics has the responsibility of making
certain that the user can safely operate the wheelchair at the speed and rates se-
lected.
Warning: When adjusting with the programmer, start with a slow (low number) stan-
dard program or factory setting. Increase only if the user has the ability to control
the wheelchair safely.
Warning: When adjusting with the programmer, use caution when changing the indi-
vidual parameters to a setting different than that provided by the factory setting.
Warning: When adjusting with the programmer, do not set reverse speed faster than
forward speed.
Warning: Ensure that wheelchair power is off before connecting or disconnecting
the programmer.
