Safety information on wheelchairs with a riser
WARNING
Danger of malfunction of the Riser
Module
1. Inspect the riser at regular intervals
to make sure there are no foreign
objects or visible damage and to
make sure the electronic plugs are
firmly inserted into their sockets.
WARNING
Danger of injury if the wheelchair
tips over
1. Never exceed the maximum
permissible load (100 kg).
2. Avoid dangerous driving situations
when the riser is in a raised
position, such as trying to overcome
obstacles like kerbs or driving up or
down gradients.
3. Never lean out of the seat when the
riser is raised.
4. Inspect the riser module at least once
a month to make sure the automatic
speed reduction, which reduces the
speed of the wheelchair when the
riser is raised, is working properly.
Notify your authorised dealership
immediately if it is not working
properly.
5. Do not drive the wheelchair outdoors
when in the raised position.
WARNING
Danger of injury by moving parts
1. Never let the objects get caught in the
space underneath a raised riser.
2. Make sure that neither you or anyone
else is injured by placing hands, feet
or other body extremities under the
raised seat.
