Moving forward:
to move forward in a straight line move the joystick
cautiously forward. The further forward the joystick is moved, the faster
your wheelchair gets. If you release the joystick the wheelchair will
automatically be braked to a stop.
Reversing:
to move in reverse mode, move the joystick cautiously
back. The further back the joystick is moved, the faster your wheelchair
gets. If you release the joystick the wheelchair will automatically be
braked to a stop.
Turning corners:
To change direction of travel, tilt the joystick to the
left or right. This can also be done when the joystick is tilted forwards
or backwards, i.e. while driving backwards or forwards.
4.6. Leg supports
Mechanical leg-rests
To make it as easy as possible to enter and leave your wheelchair, the
foot plates can be folded up, or the leg rests can be swung to the side
out of the way or removed.
• Open the lock to swing the leg rest to the side (fig. 31).
• The leg rest in the swung-out position can be completely removed
(fig. 32).
• When you want to replace the leg rest, proceed in reverse order.
• Move the leg rest to the forward position until you hear it lock into
place.
Electronic leg-rests
In order to make getting in and out as easy as possible, you can fold
the foot-plates upwards and pivot the calf rests outwards. You can also
swing out or raise the footrests.
• First remove the connection cable to the foot rests.
• To pivot the footrest outwards, open the locking device (fig. 33).
• In the “external position” the footrest can be removed entirely.
• To reassemble the footrest reverse the process.

• Swing the footrest forwards until you hear it click into place.
4.7. Pushing the wheelchair
If you wish to push the wheelchair in some situations, the brakes must
be unlocked. The wheelchair is easy to push in freewheel mode
.
Caution! The electromechanical brake is disabled in
this mode.
• Move the unlocking levers down.
• A small jerk will indicate that the drives are now unlocked.
• To lock them again pull the unlocking levers up and they will lock
automatically.
For safety reasons the motor drive is locked in
freewheel mode.
Caution! Danger of fatal injury! The drives must
only be unlocked on level ground.
