2. Important safety instructions
2.1. Common safety instructions
To avoid falls and dangerous situations, you should first practise using
your new wheelchair on level, manageable terrain. An accompanying
person is recommended in this case.
• Only drive on level, solid ground.
• Be aware of the risk of entrapment between moving parts when
adjusting, using and maintaining the wheelchair.
• The accompanying person should be physically and mentally capable
of driving a wheelchair.
• The driver and the accompanying person must not be under the
influence of alcohol or drugs.
• Before using the wheelchair, please check that all attached parts are
properly fastened.
• Only lift the wheelchair by firmly mounted parts (the armrests or the
legrests).
• Make sure that the quick-release axles are correctly seated in the axle
sockets, otherwise there is a risk of injury.
• Keep clothing and body parts away from gaps between moving parts!
• Please note that the risk of tipping over is increased if there is a
shift in balance (e.g. due to strong upper body movements or when
overcoming obstacles).
• When negotiating obstacles (steps etc.), an attendant must be
consulted. Use the tipping aid (see chapter 5.24) to tilt the
wheelchair accordingly (fig. A).
• Stairs and larger obstacles may only be climbed with the help of at
least two accompanying persons. Use the lifting points for this (see
chapter 6.4). If facilities such as ramps, lifts or stair-climbing aids are
available, use them.
