CAUTION
Driving on a Loose or Soft Surface
When the wheelchair is set to its lowest speed and the batteries are not fully
charged, driving on certain surfaces, for example gravel, sand or thick carpet-
ing, can involve constrained navigability.
Driving in Darkness
Driving in the dark may only be done if your wheelchair is equipped with func-
tioning lighting in the front and the back, or as per the applicable national or
local traffic regulations.
Driving in Extreme Climate Conditions
Permobil's wheelchairs are designed to withstand most adverse weather con-
ditions, however to minimize the risk of being caught in difficult situations you
should avoid using the wheelchair outdoors during, for example, severe cold,
heavy rain or thick snow.
Also bear in mind that certain surfaces on the wheelchair can be heated up
or cooled down in the event of prolonged exposure to intense sunlight or cold
respectively.
