Permobil M3 Corpus User Manual page 25

Permobil recommends that you do not use the wheelchair in extreme
conditions, such as heavy rain, thick snow, or excessive heat or cold.
Prolonged exposure to sunlight or cold temperatures may cause wheelchair
surfaces to become very hot or cold. The driving range of your wheelchair is
approximately 25 km (16 mi) when the battery temperature is 25°C (77°F). The
driving range is affected by the battery temperature. Temperatures below
25°C (77°F) can shorten the driving range. Temperatures below −25°C (−13°F)
can harm the batteries.
Do not use the wheelchair on stairs or escalators. Remember that alcohol can
affect your ability to drive a power wheelchair.
This user manual's wheelchair specification states the wheelchair's maximum
user weight. The stated user weight includes the user and any personal
effects.
If the wheelchair is not behaving as it should, or if you suspect that something
is wrong, stop the wheelchair as soon as possible, turn off the power and
contact your service provider or Permobil for further information.
Avoid sudden stops and starts. Use caution in any of the following situations:
• when you are near edges or on elevated surfaces
• when driving on soft or uneven surfaces, such as grass, gravel, sand, ice, or
snow
• when you drive from an area of high traction (such as a pavement) to an
area of low traction (such as grass)
• when in narrow or confined spaces
• when there are ridges that could cause the wheelchair to move in a
different direction
