L WARNING: Risk of clamping – Be careful passing through restricted passages
(e.g. doors).
L WARNING: Risk of burns – Be careful when driving in hot or cold environments
(sunshine, extreme cold, saunas, etc.) for a sufficient amount of time and when

3. Lean forward and push the hand rims forward until straight arms.
4. Swing your arms loosely back to the hand rims topside and repeat the movement.
2.10 Moving on slopes
L WARNING: Control your speed – Moving on slopes as slow as possible.
L WARNING: Consider the capacities of your attendant – If your attendant does not
have enough force to control the wheelchair, put on the brakes.
L WARNING: Risk of tipping over – Lean forward to move your centre of gravity
forward. To improve a better stability.
1. If available on the wheelchair, wear the safety belt.
2. Do not attempt moving on too high slopes. The maximum
slope angles (upwards and downwards) are mentioned in
table 1.
3. Ask an attendant to help you moving on the slope.

2.11 Negotiating steps or curbs
2.11.1 Getting down steps or curbs
Riding down low curbs can be done moving forwards. Make sure that the footplates do not
touch the ground.
A practiced user can negotiate small steps or curbs by himself:
L WARNING: Risk of tipping over – If you do not have
enough experience with your wheelchair, ask
assistance of an attendant.
1. Bring balance on the rear wheels to reduce the pressure on
the front wheels.
2. Negotiate the curbs.
Higher curbs can be taken forward with an attendant:
1. Ask the attendant to tip the wheelchair slightly backwards.
2. Get past the curbs while moving on the rear wheels.
3. Put the wheelchair back on the four wheels.
An experienced user can negotiate higher curbs by himself. This is
best done backwards.
1. Turn the wheelchair to have the rear wheels facing the
curbs.
2. Lean forward to move your centre of gravity forward.
3. Move the wheelchair close to the curbs.
4. Use the hand rim to roll-off wheelchair from the curbs in a
controlled manner.
