the user will get into the wheelchair. Bring the power wheel-
chair as close as possible to the place where its user is sitting.
If the control panel is located on the side where the user is
getting in or out, carefully remove the control panel. Remove
the side panel as described in Section 6.1.4 (remove the
footrest if necessary; see Section 6.1.5).
The user can then slide onto the wheelchair seat from the
side. Use of a transfer board will make this even easier.
NOTICE
Risk of damage to the front lighting. Do not swing the foot-
rests to the outside or damage to the front lighting may occur.
6.2.2 From / to the front
Flipping up the two footplates makes it possible for the user
to get into and out of the wheelchair from the front (Figure 16).
If required, it is also possible to remove the footrests from
their adapter after swinging them out of the way (Figure 17;
please observe the safety information in Section 6.1.5).
The assistance of an attendant or a transfer lifter makes it
easy for the user to get into or out of the power wheelchair.
A rotation plate offers support.
