Joystick operation (driving and braking)
Operating the joystick in a specific direction will move the electric wheelchair in that direction. The
speed of movement depends on the displacement of the joystick. If the joystick is pushed/pulled
to maximum displacement, the speed will be maximal (within the selected drive mode).
By moving the joystick to its central position (neutral) during driving,
the brakes will start working until the wheelchair stops:
•
For gradual braking, move the joystick slowly
•
For a quick stop, release the joystick; the wheelchair will stop
as quickly as possible.
Joystick movements
Make sure that the joystick is in neutral (central) position when pressing the on/off button,
otherwise the electronics will be locked.
After switching the operating console ON by the ON/OFF button, the joystick stays in the
central position for at least five seconds. The console has been programmed this way for
technical and safety reasons. If joystick and ON/OFF button are activated at the same time,
the steering unit is locked and will only unlock after switching completely OFF.
Make sure that the free-wheel lever is in braking position BEFORE switching the wheelchair
ON. Electromagnetic brakes do NOT function if the wheelchair is in free-wheel mode. This
is indicated on the operating console. Driving is not possible.
To prevent unintended changes of the settings, the operating keys disappear during
operation of the joystick. As soon as the joystick is in neutral position, the keys appear
again.

the console: Press the ON/OFF button until the lock symbol appears and the screen

console now becomes operable again.
4.8
Adjusting your body position
Risk of injuries or damage
•
Be aware that the stability decreases when the wheelchair is moved from sitting straight to
inclined position.
•
Make sure there is enough space around the wheelchair to operate the backrest and seat.
The wheelchair's adjusting functions can be operated from the S-menu. Depending on your type
of wheelchair, there can be up to 6 submenus.
•
To adjust your body position, move the joystick to the front or back, according to the arrows
on the screen.
