Always ensure that the wheelchair is switched
off when the brakes are activated/deactivated.
To prevent the wheelchair from rolling off,
ensure that it is on a dry, level surface before

releasing the brakes.

Anyone who pushes a wheelchair with the
brakes released must ensure that this is done
safely without risks.
Always reset the brake release after moving the
wheelchair manually.
When the brakes are released, it should not be
