F5 Corpus
WARNING!
Operation - inclines
Do not drive the wheelchair where the sideways gradient is
greater than that set forth in the technical specifications section
of this User's Manual. There is a risk of tipping over.
Do not drive up or down ramps that are not equipped with
proper edge protection along the sides to prevent the wheel-
chair from falling off the ramp.
When driving up an incline, be sure to drive the wheelchair
straight up the incline (perpendicular). Driving up an incline at
an angle increases the risk of tipping or falling. Use extreme
caution when driving up inclines.
Do not drive up or down hazardous inclines such as a surfaces
covered with snow, ice, or wet leaves, or a surface that is
uneven. Also avoid driving on ramps that do not have proper
edge protection.
WARNING!
Operation - turning
Turning your wheelchair at high speeds may cause it to topple
with personal injury as a result. The risk of tipping over is
increased by high turning speeds, sharp turns, uneven surfaces,
abrupt changes in direction, and driving from an area of low
traction (e.g. lawn) to an area of high traction (e.g. sidewalk).
To avoid tipping over, personal injury and property damage,
reduce speed and turn less sharply.
