Safety Functions; Safety Instructions For Controller Configuration; Safety Requirements For Disposal - Otto Bock C2000 Service Instructions Manual

2.6 Safety functions
INfORMATION
In dangerous situations, the power wheelchair can be turned off at any time using the on/off button.
When the button is pressed, the power wheelchair brakes immediately and the electric functions will
be stopped.
Malfunctions such as an insufficient supply of power to the wheel lock are recognised by the software,
triggering the emergency stop brake or reducing the speed of the power wheelchair. At the same time,
a warning signal will be emitted.
2.7 Safety Instructions for Controller Configuration
WARNING
Risk of accidents and injury due to incorrect configuration settings. Modified parameter settings in
the configuration can lead to changes in driving characteristics. In particular, changes to the speed,
acceleration, braking or joystick settings can lead to unexpected and therefore uncontrollable operat-
ing performance with a risk of accidents. Always test the driving characteristics of the power wheel-
chair after configuration / programming is complete. Programming must only be completed by author-
ised personnel. Neither Otto Bock nor the control unit manufacturer are liable for damages (especially
in combination with special controls) caused by programming that was not properly / professionally
adapted to the abilities of the wheelchair user.
2.8 Safety Requirements for Disposal
INfORMATION
If the power wheelchair is no longer in use, it must be disposed of properly in accordance with national
regulations.
If a wheelchair is to be disposed of, all components and materials of the power wheelchair must be
recycled or disposed of properly.
