e-fooTresTs, sTandard
The VELA Blues 100 has, as standard equipment, e-footrests.
The
VELA Blues 100 can also be equipped with a set of adjustable
footrests attached to the seat frame. The footrest can be moved
out of the way when entering and exiting the chair by lifting the
bar approx. 3 cm up and swinging the footrest around the side at
the same time. The depth of the footrest can be adjusted using the
tool for adjusting the sliding bar in the seat frame either forwards
or backwards. The footrest can be adjusted to suit leg length by
regulating the length bar in its hollow tube. The foot angle can be
adjusted using the tool in the swivel part of the footplate.
heel sTops
It is possible to fit heel stops to the footrests.
folding s-fooTresT WiTh plaTe (opTional)
The footplate saves space and follows the height of the seat when
the electric seat lift function is used. The length of the footrest is
regulated by loosening the six-sided bolt on the bar down by the
footplate. The desired position for the footplate is selected and the
six-sided bolt is tightened again. The s-footplate can be folded up
when entering and exiting the chair.
adJusTMenT of Chair baCK/seaT depTh
The chair back is released by loosening the fastener on the chair
back bar located in the back under the seat (A). The chair back is
placed in the desired position and then tightened again.
The chair back bar is equipped with a pull stop to ensure that the
chair back bar is correctly anchored in the chair back holder.
Destruction of the pull stop and extreme pressure on the chair
back bar can cause damage to the chair back holder.
The back angle is adjusted by pulling the lever (B), and locking
simply by removing your grip on the lever.
hip sTrap
It is also possible to fit a hip strap.
plaCeMenT of ConTrol box
parallel fiTTings
The control box is mounted on either the right or the left side
according to customer specifications. The VELA Blues 100 is
delivered with parallel fittings as standard, making it possible to
slide the control box along the armrest so that the chair can e.g.
come all the way up to a table. Be careful with your fingers when
sliding the control box back/forward using the parallel fitting.
eMergenCy braKe
The powerchair can be stopped immediately by turning it off:
Press the I/0 button.
Warning!
When the powerchair is turned off, the electric brake is
activated immediately. This will cause a very sudden stop. The chair
must therefore only in emergencies be turned off while it is still
moving. There is a risk of the user falling out of the chair and/or of
the chair tipping over!

Should it be necessary to manoeuvre the chair manually, the electric
brake and motor can be released by turning the two handles
located on top of the motor blocks clockwise to
note!
It is not possible to operate the VELA Blues 100 powerchair
electrically when the release function is in use. Turn the two
handles back to immediately after manoeuvring the chair.
Warning!
Do not attempt to manoeuvre the chair manually when
the motor is still in gear, when the chair is on a sloping surface, on
a landing or in a similar situation where the chair might start rolling
or lose control.
sTanding sTill and parKing
Always use the I/0 button to turn the powerchair off as soon as
you no longer want to drive it.
noTe!
When the chair is turned on, power is consumed from the
batteries. It is therefore a good idea to turn off the chair when it is
parked.
