sure that during operation the lift/tilt modules are free from all clothing,
hands, feet and other extremities, to prevent injury.

Before attempting to climb or descend a slope, return the wheelchair to a
standard seated drive position, with the backrest upright.

limits are reached. Depending on the configuration of the chair there
might be multiple creep and/or C-Me speeds.
• Before operating your chair in creep and/or C-Me mode, read all warnings
and guidelines related to this feature. They will help in understanding how
to reduce the risk of a fall or tip-over and how to identify environmental
conditions that could affect your safety when driving while the chair is in
creep and/or C-Me speed.

used on flat, level, and hardscape surfaces.
