Remark:
– Always remove the drive key after
you have switched off the wheel-
chair with the ON/OFF key (Fig.

discharge (e.g. through leakage
currents which can result in battery
damage!

motion, the wheelchair will contin-
ue to travel until the joystick is re-
turned to the zero position.

the drive key has been removed.
