Always approach slopes directly from the front and, to avoid tipping over, see that all four
wheels stay in contact with the ground at all times (ramps, driveways, etc.).
If you come to a stop on a slope by letting go of the joystick, the engine break will prevent
your electric wheelchair from rolling backward. As soon as the joystick returns to zero
position, the engine break is activated.
To resume your uphill drive, push the joystick as much as possible to the front to ensure the
release of a sufficient amount of power. This will allow your electric wheelchair to slowly
ascend the slope.
If your wheelchair is unable to drive up, turn the speed control up and try again.
2.12.10 Going downhill
L WARNING: Control your electric wheelchair - Accustom yourself with the driving
behavior of your wheelchair.
L WARNING: Control your wheelchair - Never put your electric wheelchair in
neutral on downhill slopes.
L WARNING: Control your speed - Moving on downhill slopes as slow as possible.
L WARNING: Risk of tipping over - Avoid sharp bends.
L WARNING: Risk of tipping over - Do not exceed the maximum gradient of static
stability downhill (see paragraph "Technical specifications")
Always approach downhill slopes directly from the front. Slantwise approaches can lead to
some of the wheels no longer staying in contact with the ground (danger of tipping over). If
one of the back wheels fails to make contact, the transmission of power will be cut and the
electric wheelchair come to a standstill.
The weight of the electric wheelchair will increase your downhill speed. Lower the speed on
the operator control.
Avoid sharp bends on downhill slopes. The weight of your electric wheelchair could cause
your electric wheelchair to lift up on one side or even fall over around bends.
2.13 Driving the electric wheelchair on ramps
L WARNING: Risk of injury - Do not exceed the maximum load of the ramps.
L WARNING: Risk of injury - Choose the correct ramps so there can not be caused
any injury or damage. We do not accept any liability for injury or damage caused
by an improper choice of ramps.
L WARNING: Risk of injury - Be sure that the wheel height is high enough to get
over the free height of the ramps. The electric wheelchair frame may not touch the
ramps.
L WARNING: Risk of injury - Use a restraining safety belt to secure yourself in your
wheelchair.
L WARNING: Risk of tipping over - Put the adjustment functions (seat, back,
footrests, ...) that the wheelchair has the best stability.
Should you wish to use ramps to drive over an obstacle, please note the following:
1. Find out from the manufacturer what the maximum load is for the ramps.
2. Drive on the ramps at the lowest speed possible.
3. See the instructions in the chapter "your first trip".
