**NOTE: The seat MUST be tilted/reclined so the back angle is less than 20° relative to the vertical position before elevating/lowering the seat.

NOTE: If the wheelchair is equipped with switch options, scan to the correct ECU or Auxiliary Mode and activate the control device in the corresponding "forward" direction to operate the tilt function. Refer to the electronics manual for complete switch option operating instructions.
