Jive Up 11
Rev.2.0
4.7 Emergency braking
There are three ways to stop your wheelchair:
1. Simplest and safest way to stop the wheelchair is to
release the joystick (see Hand Control section 7). This
will bring the chair to a halt in a controlled manner.
2. Pulling back the joystick will brake the chair abruptly with
a fast stop
3. Switching the control system off whilst the chair is in
motion will also bring the chair to a halt.
WARNING!
This third method is only to be used in an emergency
situation as the stopping action is very abrupt.
4.8 Sharp turns
DANGER!
Full speed turns should not be attempted. If you need
to turn sharply you must reduce your speed with the
joystick or speed setting. This is particularly important
when travelling across or down a slope. Disregarding this
advice could lead to your wheelchair tipping over.
4.9 Batteries
Your wheelchair is supplied as standard from Sunrise
Medical with maintenance-free batteries. These only
require regular charging. Before charging, please read
section 12 in this manual.
WARNING!
Do not, under any circumstances, tamper with the
batteries. If in any doubt contact your local Sunrise
Medical authorised dealer.
CAUTION!
Before using your vehicle for the very first time, please
charge your batteries for a period of 24 hours.
WARNING!
Avoid contact with acid on damaged sealed type
batteries or wet batteries. Battery acid can cause burns
to the skin as well as damage to floors, furniture and
your wheelchair. If it comes into contact with the skin
or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If
it comes into contact with the eye, immediately flood
the eye with running cold water for at least 10 minutes
and seek medical attention immediately. Acid can be
neutralised with baking soda and water. Take care to
keep batteries upright at all times, especially when
transporting your wheelchair.
