GENERAL INFORMATION

1. Make sure that the motor levers are in engaged mode. (Parallel to the wheels)
2. Once seated on the wheelchair, turn on the power (Press the power button). The battery gauge will
turn on.
3. We suggest the new users and the disabled operate the chair in low speed until comfortable with
the chair and its use.
4. Start to steer, moving the joystick to drive forward, backward, left or right. If you want to stop the
wheelchair, release the joystick—it will automatically return to the center position to stop the chair.
5. The chair's speed is automatically reduced by half when the chair is turning.
6. When driving the chair on a slope, push the joystick forward to keep the chair continuously climbing
until you reach the top of the slope. While the chair is climbing a steep slope, position your body
forward to prevent the front wheels from lifting.
7. When driving the chair down a slope, drive slowly and prepare for an emergency stop if you feel it
difficult to control the chair. If the speed increases, release the joystick to slow down or to stop, then
start again at a slower speed.
