INFORMATION
In dangerous situations, the product can be turned off at any time using the on/off button. When the button is
pressed, the product brakes immediately and the electrical functions cease. Malfunctions such as an insufficient
supply of power to the controls are recognised by the software, triggering an emergency stop or reducing the
speed of the product. A warning signal will also sound.

chair turns off automatically if the control unit has not been used for an extended period of time.
• The power wheelchair brakes automatically and comes to a stop if it is turned off with the [On/Off] button while
being driven.
• Each time you switch on the control unit, it will return to the previously selected speed level.
• The specialist dealer can use the parameter settings to specify the default speed level or default menu of the
power wheelchair after it is turned on according to the user's requirements.
