Driving on Uphill Slopes
Driving on uphill slopes must always be performed with great care.
Avoid abrupt avoidance maneuvers and never maintain a speed higher than that
at which you can maneuver the wheelchair in a safe and secure manner.
When driving on uphill slopes with an uneven surface (for example grass,
gravel, sand, ice or snow) a great deal of extra care must be observed.
WARNING
Do not drive up an uphill slope of greater than 12 degrees.
