Checking The Wheelchair Before Putting Into Use - You-Q LUCA XL Manuel D'utilisation

5 Checking the wheelchair
before putting into use
Be careful! Check the following before
driving:
•
Are the tyres sufficiently inflated (Ch.
8.3).
•
Are the batteries sufficiently
charged? The green lights on the
battery indicator must be on.
CONTROLLER
•
Are the lights on the direction
indicators functioning properly?
CONTROLLER
•
Ensure that the free wheel switch has
been set to 'drive'.
When operating the wheelchair, ensure
that your clothing does not hamper the
wheelchair (i.e. too long). Before use,
always check if your clothing or
accessories do not come into contact
with the wheels or and other moving
and/or rotating parts in which they could
become entangled.
In winter, batteries have a reduced
capacity. During a period of light frost,
the capacity is roughly 75% of the
normal capacity. At temperatures below -
5˚C this will be roughly 50%. This will
reduce your range of action.
