12.6 Driving the wheelchair

Switching the controller on or off
To be able to drive or operate the electronic adjustment
options of the wheelchair, the controller must be switched on.
Press the on/off button (B in Fig. 12.3).
NOTE!
The joystick should be released (neutral position) when
switching on the controller otherwise there will be an error
code.
If the attendant steering needs to be activated, the user/
attendant switch needs to be pressed (O in Fig. 12.3).
Driving the wheelchair
Driving an electric wheelchair can be done by operating the
controller or the attendant steering.
Driving with the controller or the attendant steering on push
bar.
Move the joystick forwards and the wheelchair will also move
forwards. Steer left and right and the wheelchair will turn.
Speed
The maximum speed can be controlled by the speed regulator
on the controller (F1 and F2 in Fig. 12.3). The speed bar on the
display screen will display the maximum speed. Speed can
be controlled with the joystick while driving. If the joystick is
moved a little, the wheelchair will move more slowly.
Driving Profile
This controller can also be set to make the wheelchair suitable
for different driving profiles or environments (L in Fig. 12.3).
For example, selecting the profile for indoors will ensure that
the wheelchair will react more 'calmly'. Once outside, the
profile can be adjusted to a more 'robust' setting. The name
and number of the current profile is displayed below the speed
bar. R-net allows you to adjust the maximum speed within
different profiles or environments.
Selecting a profile
To switch to a different profile, just press the 'profile' button
(L in Fig. 12.3). Press the 'profile' button until the most
appropriate profile has been selected.

12.7 The electrical adjustment options

Not every wheelchair has been equipped with electronic
adjustment options. We make a distinction between three
different adjustment options to the seating system (Fig. 12.7):
• Tilt adjustments
• Backrest adjustments
• Legrest adjustments
NOTE!
If you adjust electrical tilt angle to between 7° - 22°, the speed
will be reduced for your safety.
Operating electrical adjustment options can be done by the
controller or the attendant steering:
