The B400 power wheelchair can be equipped with mechan-

To elevate the footrest:
n Use the release lever on the footrest (to unblock the gas
compression spring, see arrow in g. 25).
n Move the footrest to the desired position.
n Let go of the release lever (to again block the gas com-
pression spring).

7.5 Swing-awayControlPanelHolder
To allow the user to drive the power wheelchair closer to an
object or under the edge of a table, the control panel can be
swung to the side when using a special control panel holder
(see g. 26).
n Apply a little bit of pressure to press the control panel
holder to the side and release the pivot element.
n Swing the control panel holder to the side.
n When bringing the control panel holder back to its origi-
nal position, the pivot element automatically locks into
place.
