5.1 Driving

The maximum user weight that is stated in the
technical data only states that the system is designed
for this weight in total. However, this does not
mean that one can sit a person with this body
weight in the mobility device without restrictions.
Attention must be paid to the body proportions,
such as height, weight distribution, abdominal belt,
leg and calf strap and seat depth. These factors have
a strong influence on driving features such as tilt
stability and traction. It may possibly be necessary
to carry out adaptations to the seat system.

5.2 Before driving for the first time

Before you take your first trip, you should familiarize yourself
well with the operation of the mobility device and with all
operating elements. Take your time to test all functions
and driving modes.
If installed, make sure to properly adjust and use the
posture belt each time you use the mobility device.
Sitting comfortably = Driving safely
Before each trip, make sure that:
• You are within easy reach of all operating controls.
• The battery charge is sufficient for the distance intended
to be covered.
• The posture belt is in perfect order.
