2.8 Safety Functions
INFORMATION
In dangerous situations, the B600 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
brake are recognised by the software, triggering the emer-
gency stop brake or reducing the speed of the power
wheelchair. At the same time, a warning signal will be
emitted.
