12. Using the wheelchair
● The used materials are in compliance with the accepted standards
mentioned in EN 12183 regarding flame resistance and bio-compatibility.
● The seat or any other mounted parts do not touch the wheelchair carrier
when using the tilt function. This is because the dimensions will vary from
the standard seat.
● Special care should be taken in driving on unequal surfaces such as
slopes, unequal pavements and during descending from footpaths.
● It is not allowed to carry passengers other than the user on the
wheelchair.
● On slippery surfaces, like ice and snow, the driving speed must be
reduced accordingly.
● Do not drive through water puddles, you cannot see how deep they
are. This might lead to dangerous situations. Water can damage the
wheelchair.
● Note that no other persons or animals are in the direct contact zone of
the wheelchair when using it.
● Always drive slowly in the near surrounding of other people or
animals.
● When using too small front wheels, the wheelchair could get stuck at
curbs or in floor grooves. Make sure that the front wheels are suitable
for the surface you’re driving on.
● There may be a small gap between the rear wheel and the parking
brake with the risk that you could trap your fingers. Ensure that you
always propel your wheelchair using the handrims only.
