6.5.7 Drive-away lock

INFORMATION
For the B500 advanced/B500 plus, the drive-away lock can
only be activated as described if the function was previ­
ously enabled (see front inner cover). The factory default
setting can be changed by the specialist dealer.
Please ask your specialist dealer about the setting selected
for your wheelchair.
The power wheelchair control unit features an electronic
drive-away lock. This function is activated/deactivated via
the control panel.
The drive-away lock can only be activated or deactivated if
the "Drive-away lock" parameter is set to "Function
enabled". Unless otherwise specified in the order, the drive-
away lock is set to "Function disabled" at the factory.
If this setting needs to be changed, this is done by the
authorised person who fitted the wheelchair.
