BRAKES
!
Attention:
Have the brakes repaired immedi-
ately by an authorised dealer if
they work one-sided or if the brak-
ing effect is reduced.
•
Observe the brochure <
Safety in-
formation electronic vehicles
>!
Service brake
The motor works electrically as a driv-
ing brake and decelerates the wheel-
chair softly and jerk-free to a stand-
still.
Parking brake
The parking brakes only work when
the selection lever is in the drive mode
position. They disengage automatical-
ly when the wheelchair starts off. They
are disengaged manually by moving
the selection lever to the push mode
position. Also view chapter <
Drive-/
push mode
>.
Braking the wheelchair
The wheelchair stops when you let go
of the joystick (fig. 10/
➀
).
For allotted braking slowly guide the
joystick back to the home position
(zero-setting). Always ensure an ade-
quate braking distance when applying
the wheelchair brakes.
!
Attention:
For this reason, ensure that you
brake the wheelchair in good time
when you encounter other people
or obstacles.
Braking distance
The shortest braking distance, depend-
ing on the surface condition and speed
and the wheelchair version, is about
1.0 m at a speed of 6 km/h.
