3

1.Do not operate hand-held transceivers (transmitters-receivers), such as citizens band

   (CB) radios, or turn ON personal communication devices, such as cellular phones,

   while the power chair is turned ON; 

 

2.Be aware of nearby transmitters, such as radio or TV stations, and try to avoid coming

   close to them; 

 

3.If unintended movement or brake release occurs, turn the power chair OFF as soon

   as it is safe; 

 

4.Be aware that adding accessories or components, or modifying the power chair, may

   make it more susceptible to EMI; and

 

5.Report all incidents of unintended movement or brake release to the distributor listed

   on the inside front cover of this manual. Note whether there is a source of EMI nearby.

Important Information

1.20 volts per meter V/m is a generally achievable and useful immunity level against EMI

   (as of May 1994).  The higher the level, the greater the protection. 

 

2.The immunity level of this product is 20 V/m.

IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

Safety is the main consideration when practicing with your chair.  It is required that you

read and comprehend all the operating and safety instructions discussed in this manual.

And ensure your chair is correctly fitted and adjusted by your dealer or the prescribing

healthcare professional.
Make sure to engage the wheel locks before entering or leaving the chair.  The wheel locks

are designed to prevent movement of the chair. It is preferable to ensure the front castors

are in the forward position before transferring in to or out of the chair.  With the castors

in the forward position the wheel base of the chair is increased and therefore, offers more

stability.
DO NOT move forward in the seat while leaning forward out of the chair.  If an object is

to be picked up from the floor, drive past it, then reverse so the front castors are in the 

forward position. This gives the chair its greatest stability. 
To maintain lateral stability do not reach further than the length of your arm.  DO NOT

lean out of the chair as this could cause instability.
When transferring, DO NOT stand on the leg rests. Depending on the style of leg rests

either swing them away or fold them up before transferring.
When approaching a ramp, be sure of your own ability and your limitations in terms of

strength and endurance.

Before attempting a ramp the following basic safety rules should be considered

1.Surface of the ramp: Is it too slippery?

2.Degree of incline: Is it too steep to attempt alone?

3.Length of ramp: Is it too long for your endurance?

4.Obstacles: Are there any obstacles on the ramp that would necessitate assistance?
