If the wheelchair has adjustment functions, ensure that (because these has influence on the
stability of the electric wheelchair):
1. The seat is in the lowest position as possible and in the horizontal position.
2. The backrest is in the upright position.
3. The footrests have been set so that no collision can occur while passing the obstacle.
If another person is pushing you, note that the large weight of the electric wheelchair exerts
appreciable reverse forces.
