Parking And Stationary; Parking On Public Transport - Invacare Leo User Manual

WARNING!
Risk of tipping over
– Only ever drive downhill at a maximum of 2/3
of the top speed.
– If your scooter is fitted with an adjustable
backrest, always return the backrest of your
seat to an upright position before ascending
slopes. We recommend that you lean the
backrest slightly to the rear before descending
slopes.
– When descending slopes, bring your seat to a
maximum forward position.
– Never attempt to ascend or descend a slope on
slippery surfaces or where there is a danger of
skidding (such as wet pavement, ice etc).
– Avoid trying to get out of the scooter on an
incline or a gradient.
– Always drive in a straight direction along the
road or path you are travelling on, rather than
attempting to zigzag.
– Never attempt to turn around on an incline or
a slope.
CAUTION!
Braking distance is much longer on a downhill
slope than on even terrain
– Never drive down a slope that exceeds the
rated slope (refer to 12 Technical Data, page
56).

6.5 Parking and stationary

If you park your vehicle, or leave it idle or unattended for
a longer period:
1. Switch off the power supply (keyswitch) and remove key.

6.6 Parking on Public Transport

The parking brake is an additional brake that permanently
stops the mobility device until you deactivate the brake.
This function is useful when you are using the mobility
device on public transport.
Before using public transport, be aware that:
• German public transport (ÖPNV) regulation indicates
that you must remove all rear fittings from the scooter
seat carrier.
• The bus driver decides whether you can take the
scooter on board or not.
Before travelling, you can contact your bus company to find
out, if your model is admitted.
