SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES
DO NOT climb, go up or down ramps or traverse slopes greater than 9°.
DO NOT attempt to move up or down an incline with a water, ice or oil film.
DO NOT attempt to drive over curbs or obstacles. Doing so may cause your wheelchair to turn over and cause bodily harm or damage to the chair.
DO NOT leave the power button in the On position when entering or exiting your wheelchair.
DO NOT stand on the frame of the wheelchair.
DO NOT stand on the flip‐up footboard, otherwise damage may occur. When getting in or out of the wheelchair, make sure that the flip‐up footboard is in the upward position.
DO NOT stand on the front riggings, otherwise damage may occur. When getting in or out of the wheelchair, make sure that the footplates on the front riggings are in the upward position or moved out of the way.
ALWAYS wear your seat positioning strap. The seat positioning strap is a positioning belt only. It is not designed for use as a safety device withstanding high stress loads such as auto or aircraft safety belts. If signs of wear appear, belt MUST be replaced immediately.
