IN A STANDING POSITION
Preparing for verticalization: making sure you're on a flat surface.
For obvious safety reasons, it is therefore formally forbidden to verticalize on slopes or near strong differences in
levels (eg stairs, ramps, etc
…).
The electronics prohibit verticalization if the slope of the front (in the direction of traffic) has an inclination of more
than 6 °. Warning; the lateral stability upside down is less than from the front. It is therefore strictly forbidden to
verticalize when the chair is leaning to the side.
Si par erreur le patient s’aventurait en position debout dans une pente de plus de
6°, le fauteuil reviendra
automatiquement en position assise. Néanmoins le risque de chute existe car le retour à la position assise est
progressif.
When the stability of the chair is no longer assured, the screen of the A400 manipulator displays an exclamation
mark (insert photo). As soon as this information is displayed, the speed of progress is greatly reduced.

Installation of armrests in horizontal position
Figure 31 : installation of armrests
Fold the armrests in a horizontal position in
order to obtain a good lateral support during
verticalization.
(See figure 31)
