2.5Safety Information on Wheelchairs with a Lifter

IMPORTANT - IF YOUR WHEELCHAIR IS EQUIPPED WITH A LIFTER:

Danger of injury if the wheelchair tips over!

Never exceed the maximum permissible load (see Technical Specifications)!

Avoid dangerous driving situations when the lifter is in a raised position, such as trying to overcome obstacles like kerbs or driving up or down steep gradients!

Never lean out of the seat when the lifter is raised!

Inspect the lifter module at least once a month to make sure the automatic speed reduction function, which reduces the speed of the wheelchair when the lifter is raised, is working properly (see chapter on lifter)! Notify your authorised dealership immediately if it is not working properly!

Danger of injury by moving parts!

Never let objects get caught in the space underneath a raised lifter!

Make sure that neither you nor anyone else is injured by placing hands, feet other body extremities under the raised seat!

Danger of malfunction of the Lifter Module!

Inspect the lifter module at regular intervals to make sure there are no foreign objects or visible damage, and to make sure the electric plugs are firmly inserted into their sockets!
