Road use
Please show the utmost consideration for the other traffic
on the road.
DANGER!
• Remember that the last thing a car or lorry driver expects to
see is a wheelchair backing off the kerb into the road.
• If in any doubt, do not risk crossing the road until you are
certain that it is safe.
• Always cross the road as quickly as possible, there may be
other traffic.
• Do not drive over anything that could cause punctures in
the tyres.
• Ensure that there are no objects in your path that could
possibly become lodged in your chair mechanism or in the
spokes of the rear wheels. This could cause the chair to
come to a sudden stop.
• Riding over drains or grids could cause the wheelchair
castors or wheels to become lodged, causing the chair to
come to a sudden stop.
Adverse conditions:
Please be aware that when driving your wheelchair in
adverse conditions, e.g. on wet grass, mud, ice, snow or
other slippery surfaces, you may experience a reduction in
the grip and traction of your wheelchair.
DANGER!
• We recommend you take extra precautions in these
conditions, particularly on hills and slopes; your wheelchair
could become unstable or skid causing possible injury.
• When you are using a Powered Wheelchair take extra care
with loose or long items of clothing. Moving parts, such
as wheels, can be potentially dangerous or even fatal if
clothing becomes entangled.
NOTE :
Extreme variances in temperature may trigger the self protect
mechanism in the control system. If this occurs the control
system will temporarily shut down to prevent damage to the
electronics or the wheelchair.
5.4 Curves
DANGER!
Full speed turns should not be attempted. If you need to turn
sharply you must reduce your speed with the joystick or speed
setting. This is particularly important when travelling across
or down a slope. Disregarding this advice could lead to your
wheelchair tipping over.
WARNING!
Use indicators when changing direction.
