driving mode by your provider. There are six latched
driving modes, which are indicated on the lower left
of the drive card with the symbols displayed in the

The wheelchair can be steered while in latched driving mode. If a turn

demand is given. The Latch Drive Timeout period is restarted
whenever a turn demand is given. When the Latch Drive Timeout
expires, the wheelchairs stops.
4.10.1 External Stop Switch
To set up a wheelchair for latched driving, an external stop switch
must be fitted to the wheelchair. Ideally, the external stop switch
should be highly visible and easily accessible to provide an extra level
of safety and security for the user.
External Stop Switch Test
The external stop switch test checks that the external stop switch is
functioning correctly. The test is conducted once per power cycle
when:
the wheelchair is powered up in a latched drive mode function or
l
a latched drive mode function is selected following a non-latched
l
mode function.
The external stop switch test is indicated by a
screen overlay.
1. Press external stop switch to complete test.
The wheelchair does not drive until the
external stop switch test is completed
successfully.
