Sitting in the wheelchair

Use of the wheelchair
(see also page 32 for more information)
Warning:
•
The NEOX is not equipped with an anti-tipping
support as standard. Check that tilting the
wheelchair backwards does not suddenly allow it
to tip backwards. In that case always add the anti-
tippers for additional safety.
•
When driving up a slope, the center of gravity
will move backwards and the wheelchair can tilt
backwards more easily.
•
When going down a slope, the center of gravity
will move forward and the user can fall forward
from the wheelchair more easily.
•
As a wheelchair user, you are vulnerable in traffic.
Make sure that you are always seen and noticed by
other road users. Obey the applicable traffic rules.
•
Avoid lonely routes, make sure that help can be
provided in case of an emergency.
n The occupant or attendant must be alert to the
possibility of the wheelchair tipping backwards in
the following cases:
- - When the balance position is set to active.
- When the angle of the backrest is large
- When driving up a slope.
- When someone is standing on the anti-tip aid
support and/or on the anti-tipping support.
n When self-driving the wheelchair, pay attention to
your hands if there is not much space on the side(s)
or brakes of the wheelchair.
