Teknique FWD Owner's Manual page 11

To avoid serious injury or death from being struck by a motor
vehicle, when driving your power wheelchair near traffic:
• Obey all local pedestrian traffic rules.
• Cross roads at locations where you are most visible to motor
traffic, if possible at a light-controlled pedestrian crossing with
handicapped cutouts.
• Cross the road by the most direct route.
To reduce the chance of serious injury or death from tip-over,
collision with obstacles, loss of control, or falling from the power
wheelchair, keep yourself properly positioned in the seat:
• Keep your seat belt fastened.
• Drive with the seatback only in a fully upright, locked and
forward facing position.
• Keep your back against the seatback, arms on the armrests,
and your feet on the footplate.
• Do not reach over the back of the chair or lean excessively
forward or sideways.
• Do not carry passengers or cargo.
• Do not stand on footplate. Do not put weight on footplate,
armrest or controller while getting into or out of the power
wheelchair.
