The drive limit status (remotes since July 2014)

The color of the current drive profile, shown in the middle of the
screen, is dependent on the wheelchair’s status.

green

Normal drive operation.

orange

Wheelchair can drive or is driving in a
restricted capacity (that is, reduced speed).

red

Inhibited state (flashing) – the chair cannot be
driven in this state.

The G-Trac™ option

If your mobility device has been fitted with the G-Trac
option you will NOT be able to change driving profiles while
travelling.

If your mobility device has been fitted with the G-Trac option, it will
enable you to enjoy fatigue-free and safer driving.

G-Trac supports you in staying at the same driving speed and
travel direction, and therefore reduces fatigue.

It improves the tracking and therefore increases the user's
driving comfort.

G-Trac stabilizes the mobility device tracking in the case of
front-wheel-drive devices and finds the optimum driving speed
for travelling round bends. This prevents skidding, slipping or
tipping of the mobility device and therefore increases safety.
