Turn Wheelchair On/Off - Vermeiren operator control Shark Mode D'emploi

Press the "ON/OFF" button (1). The charge indicator (2), which also indicates the batteries' charge
level, lights up for a moment. If all the lights come on, the batteries are sufficiently charged. If the lights
do not all come on, you must adjust your driving activities to suit the low capacity of the batteries. If the
battery charger display lights do not come on, check the plug connections of the electronic system.
Now select the driving program you want by pressing the "Tortoise" (3) or "Hare" (4) buttons.
The selected speed can be set on the 5-level speed indicator (5). If you have any special needs, you
can ask your dealer to enter a personalised driving program.
To set the wheelchair in motion, push the joystick forwards slowly. The speed will increase when you
push the joystick further forwards. If you want to turn left or right, simply push the joystick in the
desired direction. To reverse, pull the joystick backwards from the central position.

Note that, when pressing the "ON/OFF" button, the joystick stays in the central position for at
least two seconds. It is programmed this way for technical and safety reasons, to prevent the
joystick being pushed at the same time as the wheelchair is being switched on. If both
processes are activated at the same time, the steering unit locks itself and can only become
operational again after being switched off completely.
Press the "Left indicator" (9) or "Right indicator" (10) buttons to signal a change in your driving
direction. The driving lights are switched on or off by pressing the "Lights" (12) button. You can sound
an acoustic warning signal with the "Horn" (7) button. The hazard warning lights, used in critical
situations, can be switched on or off by pressing the "Hazard warning lights" (11) button.
To brake while driving, simply push the joystick to its central position. Move the joystick slowly for
gradual braking. Simply release the lever for a quick stop; the wheelchair will then stop as quickly as
possible.
To activate the back adjuster, select button (13) until the number 1 lights up, and you can then use the
joystick to tilt the back in the direction you want.
To activate the seat incliner, select button (13) until the number 2 lights up, and you can then use the
