2.2 Do not ascend or descend stairs without the assistance of attendants.
If devices such as ramps or elevators are available, they should be used.
If wheelchair-friendly access is missing, two attendants must carry the
wheelchair over the obstacle.
2.3 If possible, the footplates should be flipped up before getting into or out of
the wheelchair.
2.4 Risk of accident when driving without experience. This can lead to falls
and other dangerous situations. Therefore, familiarize yourself with the
new wheelchair by practicing on even, straightforward terrain first. Learn
how the wheelchair reacts when the center of gravity shifts; for example
on slopes or inclines or when clearing obstacles such as steps and curbs.
This should be done only with the assistance of another person. Using an
anti-tipper is strongly recommended for inexperienced wheelchair users.
2.5 All brakes acting on the tires do not serve as service brake but are only
designed as parking brake (wheel lock). The wheel locks must not be used
as driving brakes for slowing down the wheelchair, as in extreme cases,
the abrupt stopping of the wheelchair can lead to falls.
2.6 Risk of damage caused by overload. The maximum load capacity is 110
kg.
2.7 The drive wheels must be replaced in case of tire damage (tread becomes
worn down to such an extent that there is only 5 mm of radius left on the
outer edges of the tire) or damage on the rim.
The 12" drive wheels of the transfer version is replaced in the same way.

3. Delivery and Preparation for Use

(Please Note: The photos here may show differences to the wheelchair you
actually received).
Your wheelchair is usually delivered fully assembled, folded, and with the rear
wheels mounted.
A few simple steps are sufficient to prepare it for use:
1. While standing next to the wheelchair (Figure 1), unfold the wheelchair using
flat hands (Figure 2). Ensure that the telescoping bars (Figure 1-A) are com-
pletely collapsed and that the seat upholstery is flattened out.
