DAngEr!
Risk of crushing in the lift seat area!
When using the lift seat function, there are
shearing and crushing points in the area below
the seat of the power wheelchair. To avoid
injuries, do not reach into the danger area.
No unauthorised persons are permitted in the
danger area.
There are crushing points caused by the
construction in the area between the seat
frame and wheelchair frame. Never let any
parts of the body (hands, feet) or objects get
under the raised seat. This risk of crushing
must be explained to the attendants.
DAngEr!
Do not lean the upper part of the body beyond
the seat area while the seat is raised.
DAngEr!
Since the wheelchair user's field of vision is
restricted when the seat is raised, extra caution
is required when operating the wheelchair with
the seat in the raised position and when
activating the lift seat function.

Slightly tilt the seat to the rear when driving
down inclines or curbs. Drive down inclines
and acrocss obstacles at reduced speed only
(max. 3 km/h / 1.9 m/h).

Always bring the seat into the horizontal
position when driving up slopes or curbs. Since
the stability against tipping is reduced in such
situations, additional attention on the part of
the driver is required!

Inspect the lift seat for visible signs of damage
at least once a month and ensure all screw
connections are tight. Also maintain correct air
pressure.
ATTEnTIOn!
Always lower the lift seat fully for loading or
transportation.

A sufficient supply of power must be
maintained for the lift seat to work properly.
