Safety instructions

Assembly and adjustment
n Before you start using the wheelchair, check
that the wheels, the sides with armrests
and the legrests are properly fitted and securely
fastened.
n Make sure that the push handles, the armrests and
the lower leg length of the legrests are set to the
right height. The legrests must be at least 5 cm off
the floor.
Use of the wheelchair
n NB: This wheelchair does not have anti
tipping support. It may tip over if you lean
back suddenly.
n NB: When using the chair on a slope,
the centre of gravity will change and the
wheelchair can tip over more easily.
n When propelling the chair manually, be careful of
your hands if there is not much space to the left
and right of the chair.
n Accompanying persons must never leave the
wheelchair on a slope without engaging the brake.
n Never tackle obstacles higher than 10 cm on
your own. Only experienced users with sufficient
strength are generally capable of tackling
obstacles up to 10 cm in height.
n Engage the brake on the wheelchair before
getting out of the chair or transferring from it.
n Only use the brake to lock the stationary wheels.
The brake is not suitable for slowing the wheelchair
down.
Transporting the wheelchair
n Make sure your fingers do not get caught when
folding up the wheelchair.
n Never carry the wheelchair by the legrests or the
armrests, but always by the frame.
n Make sure the wheelchair is completely unfolded
before you use it again.
