2.23 Thermal fuse
To protect the motor against overload, on the right side of
the seat frame there is a thermal safety mechanism
that
will automatically cut off the motor to prevent overheating
and thus rapid wear and tear or breakdowns. This can occur
if you go up or down slopes that exceed the maximum
gradient indicated. Nominal loads exceeding the maximum
could also trigger the safety mechanism.
To be able to use the electric wheelchair again, remove the overload and wait till the motor
has cooled down. Then gently press the thermal safety mechanism back in. Your wheelchair
is now ready for use again.
2.24 Anti-tipping (B78)

CAUTION:
Risk of injury - Check that the anti-tipping is working before driving
with the electric wheelchair.
For your safety your electric wheelchair is equipped with an anti-
tipping
that works with a suspension system, and when crossing
small obstacles (no higher than 70 mm) tips back a little, yet
overtipping is prevented by a stopping mechanism. Do not remove
the anti-tipping device as your wheelchair will no longer be secured
against accidentally tipping over.
