4. Push the power button located onto the control panel to initiate the drive system. 5. Once initiated, the indicator lights on top of the control panel are continuously on. 6. The e-Mobby is now ready to drive, a flashing beacon combined with an audible signal indicates that the device is ready for use.
When driving the e-Mobby, along with the flashing beacon a (predefined) audio signal plays continuously to notify bystanders. NOTE: The drive system is equipped with a brake function which is enabled if the e-Mobby is not moving. Once the operator activates the joystick for moving forward or backwards, the brake is released.
3.5 Balance The e-Mobby has the best stability when a passenger is seated, when driving without a passenger make sure to balance the e-Mobby in order to have maximum control. When leaning too much backwards, the front wheels may lose contact with the floor.
For more convenience, an optional footboard covered with a non-skid material for the operator is available. The operator does not have to walk behind the e-Mobby but can stand on a platform. In case this is not required, the platform is folding.
3.6.3 Wide seat base The standard version of the e-Mobby contains a chair base, suitable for most passengers. In case transport of larger passengers is required, a different chair base with a wider frame is available. This does not compromise the functionality of the e-Mobby.
The e-Mobby works with the patented Mobby-system to easily connect Mobby with each other. Normally, this action is done manually, but for the e-Mobby this can be done by actuators. The regular fixture is replaced by an actuator-mechanism which electrically lifts a Mobby. Operating the lifters is done as follows: 1.
Lift the footboard a bit to position the pinion above the hole of the luggage cart tow bar. Gently lower the pinion until it snaps in the tow bar. You can now drive with the luggage cart attached to the e-Mobby.

The other way is to lift an armrest (both left and right can be lifted) so that the passenger can sit down from the side of the e-Mobby. After sitting down, the passenger can face forward, the armrest can be lowered.
3.8.1 Manual docking 1. Position an empty Mobby in front of the e-Mobby (or other Mobby) and make sure the fixture is just in front of the lifting knobs. 2. Use the handle at the back to lift the Mobby and slide-pull the Mobby backwards until the fixture is positioned over the knobs.
3.9 Charging the batteries The e-Mobby is equipped with a built-in charger, dedicated for charging the battery pack. The charger cable contains a country-specific plug and fits a regular wall socket. Follow the steps below for charging the batteries: 1.
5.4 Brake override In case the e-Mobby enters an error state or malfunctions, there is a facility to manually move the device. The e-Mobby has two drive motors, where each motor has a release lever to override the internal brake.
WARNING: Never park the e-Mobby with released brakes on a slope or comparable surface. The vehicle may roll down the slope and cause serious injury to bystanders. CAUTION: Overriding the brake function disables the brake functionality in general. After manually moving the e-Mobby, make sure the brakes are activated again! 5.5 Thermal protection...
5.6 Signal protection The e-Mobby has a dedicated pole for visual and audible signals for alerting bystanders. These signal indicators are protected by a fuse, located at position K (see §3.1). If these functions do not work, first check the fuse and if required, replace it with a new one or contact the service technician.
