5.
Gently move the joystick forward. A “click” will be heard as the
controller releases the motor brakes and your power wheelchair will
move slowly forward. Observe that if the joystick is released, the lever
will return to center (neutral) and the power wheelchair will stop.
Note that when the chair stops, another “click” will be heard as the
brakes are automatically engaged.
6.
Move the joystick lever fully right. The chair will move in a circle to the
right. Moving the lever fully left will cause the chair to circle to the left.
If the status indicator is flashing, the controller has sensed a
fault condition. Refer to the fault code section of Appendix B
(page 53) to determine the cause of the fault. The power
wheelchair will not respond to move commands if a fault
condition is sensed.
To avoid serious injury or death from a fall or collision, set
speed/response control for the environment and your skill
level. Set control to minimum if you are a less experienced
driver or are in a confined space.
7.
Gently move the joystick lever backward, and the chair will move
slowly backward. Note that the backward movement is about half
the speed of the forward movement.
8.
If you move the joystick lever gently back and to the right, the chair
will move backward to the left. If you move the joystick gently back
and to the left, the chair will move backward to the right.
9.
Learn the characteristics of your power wheelchair and the limits of
your own driving ability before attempting to drive at higher speed
settings.
10. As your skill increases, you may want to increase the Speed/Response
Control. For each increase of the Speed/Response Control, be
sure you practice several stops until you get used to the new
stopping distance.
Driving on soft and/or uneven surfaces increases the chances
of a collision or fall from the seat due to loss of control or
tip-over and can result in serious injury or death. Avoid driving
on these surfaces.
