500-S; Delivery - Otto Bock B 500 Bedienungsanleitung

7 B 500-S
The seat of the B 500-S was rotated by 180°. The caster wheel stabilization improves directional stability
without restricting maneuverability. When beginning to steer the B 500-S, a somewhat bigger joystick deflection
is required in order to overcome the internal resistance of the caster wheel stabilization.

Caution!
The power wheelchair B 500-S has not been approved for use as a seat in motor vehicles for the
trans-portation of disabled persons! Until its approval, passengers must be seated exclusively in the
specially installed seats of the vehicle and be attached with the corresponding restraint systems!
Failure to follow these instructions could lead to injury of the wheelchair user as well as all other
passengers in the motor vehicle in case of an accident.
