DANGER!

6.2 Sharp turns:

Full speed turns should not be attempted. If you need to turn
sharply you must reduce your speed with the joystick or speed
setting. This is particularly important when travelling across
or down a slope. Disregarding this advice could lead to your
wheelchair tipping over.
DANGER!

6.3 Weight limit:

• For Q100R The user plus items carried should never exceed a
total weight of 125 kgs.
• For Q200R The user plus items carried should never exceed a
total weight of 136 kgs.
• Never use this chair for weight training if the total weight
(user plus additional weights) exceed a total weight as listed
above.
• Exceeding the weight limit is likely to damage the seat, frame
or fasteners and may cause severe injury to you or others
from chair failure
• Exceeding the weight limit will void the warranty.

6.4 Hot surfaces:

WARNING!
After prolonged use, the motors will produce heat, which is
radiated through the motors' outer casing. Do not touch the
motors' outer casing for at least 30 minutes after using the
wheelchair, to allow it to cool.
WARNING!
Not only motors can become hot during the operation of the
chair, the upholstery material and armrests may heat up when
standing in the sun.

DANGER!

6.5 Road caution:

• Please show the utmost consideration for the other traffic
on the road.
• Remember that the last thing a car or lorry driver expects to
see is a wheelchair backing off the kerb into the road.
• If in any doubt, do not risk crossing the road until you are
certain that it is safe.
• Always cross the road as quickly as possible; there may be
other traffic.
WARNING!

6.6 Adverse conditions:

• Please be aware that when driving your wheelchair in
adverse conditions, e.g. on wet grass, mud, ice, snow or other
slippery surfaces, you may experience a reduction in the grip
and traction of your wheelchair. We recommend you take
extra precautions in these conditions, particularly on hills
and slopes; your wheelchair could become unstable or skid
causing possible injury. Extreme variances in temperature
may trigger the self protect mechanism in the control
system. If this occurs the control system will temporarily
shut down to prevent damage to the electronics or the chair.
• When you are using a Powered Scooter or Wheelchair, take
extra care with loose or long items of clothing. Moving parts,
such as wheels, can be potentially dangerous or even fatal if
clothing becomes entangled.
WARNING!

6.7 Ramps:

• When using a ramp, please ensure that it is capable of taking
the combined weight of the power chair and yourself.
• If a ramp is being used to load a chair into a vehicle, please
ensure the ramp is properly secured to the vehicle.
• Always approach the ramp head-on and exercise caution.
• Please ensure your ramp is suitable for the product you are
transporting.
WARNING!
Maximum ramp angle is defined in Section 16 Specification
