Driving
The maximum load capacity that is stated in the technical
data only states that the system is designed for this mass
in total. However, this does not mean that one can sit
a person with this body weight in the mobility device
without restrictions. Attention must be paid to the body
proportions, such as height, weight distribution, abdominal
belt, leg and calf strap and seat depth. These factors have
a strong influence on driving features such as tilt stability
and traction. The permissible axle loads in particular must
be adhered to (refer to 11 Technical data, page102). It may
possibly be necessary to carry out adaptations to the seat
system.
6.2
Before driving for the first time
Before you take your first trip, you should familiarize yourself well
with the operation of the mobility device and with all operating
elements. Take your time to test all functions and driving modes.
If installed, make sure to properly adjust and use the postural
belt each time you use the mobility device.
Sitting comfortably = Driving safely
Before each trip, make sure that:
•
You are within easy reach of all operating controls.
•
The battery charge is sufficient for the distance intended to be
covered.
•
The postural belt (if installed) is in perfect order.
•
The rear mirror (if installed) is adjusted so you can look behind
at all times without having to bend forward or shift your seating
position.
