the power OFF while the wheelchair is not in use. Otherwise, injury and/or
damage to the wheelchair and surrounding property may occur

et cetera) to the battery. This could cause unexpected failure of the device
and the powered wheelchair. KARMA specifically disclaims responsibility to
all personal injury and property damage that may occur during use which
does not comply with applicable federal, state and local laws and
ordinances.
● DO NOT stand on the footplates of the powered wheelchair.
● DO NOT use the wheelchair when the back is folded. This alters the centre
of gravity and may cause the wheelchair to tip backwards. The back should
only be folded for storage or transport of the wheelchair.
● DO NOT hang anything on the backjoints that could cause the backrest
folding suddenly and may cause injury.
● DO NOT be towed by other vehicles(cars, motorcycles or bicycles, etc.). Only
use freewheel mode on flat surfaces since your electromagnetic brakes are
not engaged in this mode, without these brakes it will roll down a hill
causing injury or damage. Never drive under the influence of alcohol or
medication.
