Note!
Before use, always check to see whether
clothing or accessories could come into
contact with wheels or other moving and/
or rotating parts in which they could become
entangled.
The capacity of batteries is reduced in winter.
During a period of light frost, the capacity
is roughly 75% of the normal capacity. At
temperatures below -5˚C this will be roughly
50%. This will reduce the wheelchair's range.
