2.4 Safety Information on Driving and Freewheel Mode
Danger of injury if the wheelchair tips over!
• Only ever negotiate gradients of up to the maximum defined in the Technical Specifications
and only with the backrest and seat tilt in an upright position!
• Only ever drive downhill at a maximum of 2/3 of the top speed! Avoid abrupt braking or
accelerating on gradients!
• If at all possible, avoid driving on slippery surfaces (such as snow, gravel, ice etc.) where
there is a danger of you losing control over the vehicle, especially on a gradient! If driving on
such a surface is inevitable, then always drive slowly and with the utmost caution!
• Never attempt to overcome an obstacle when on an uphill or downhill gradient!
• Never attempt to drive up or down a flight of steps with your wheelchair!
• Always approach obstacles straight on! Ensure that the front wheels and rear wheels move
over the obstacle in one stroke, do not stop halfway! Do not exceed the maximum obstacle
height (see Technical Specifications)!
• Avoid shifting your centre of gravity as well as abrupt joystick movements and changes of
direction when the wheelchair is in motion!
• Never use the wheelchair to transport more than one person!
• Do not exceed the maximum permissible load!
• Note that the wheelchair will brake or accelerate if you change the Driving Mode whilst the
wheelchair is in motion!
