3.1 Area of application: The user

Power wheelchairs are exclusively for a user who is unable to walk or
has limited mobility, for their own personal use indoors and outdoors.
Driving a powered wheelchair requires cognitive, physical and visual
skills. The user must be able to estimate and correct the results of
actions when operating the wheelchair.
The wheelchair cannot transport more than 1 person at a time. The
maximum weight limit (includes both the user and any weight of
accessories fitted to the wheelchair) is marked on the serial number
label, which is affixed to the chassis of the chair (Fig. 2.9).
For restrictions on user weight limit refer to seating manual &.
The user must be informed of the contents of this user manual before
driving the wheelchair. In addition, the user of the wheelchair must
be given thorough instruction by a qualified specialist before he or
she participates in traffic. The first sessions in the wheelchair should
be practiced under supervision of a trainer/advisor.

that this wheelchair can be used by those who cannot walk or have
limited mobility e.g. because of:
• Paralysis
