
Do not try to open or disassemble any case - there are no user-serviceable parts inside.

The operator has the responsibility to keep the wheelchair in a good safe operating condition. To
protect all the components (for example the cables) from damage, the operator must fasten them
in optimum positions.

Do not touch the connector pins. If you touch the pins, they can become dirty or they can be
damaged by electrostatic discharge.

Immediately turn the controller off and consult your service agent if the vehicle:
o is damaged;
o does not behave the same every time;
o does not respond normally, the way you expect it to;
o becomes hotter than normal;
o smokes;
o does not change its speed when you adjust the speed dial;
o displays a fault on its fault indicator and the controller does not perform normally.

Turn the controller off:
o when you do not use it;
o before you get in or get out of the wheelchair;
o if your vehicle driven by itself or against your will. When you turn the controller off the vehicle
will halt.

In the case of an emergency while the vehicle is driving, or a adjusting motion is operating, press
the On/Off button to perform an emergency stop and turn the controller off.

If there is a risk of collision with a person or object in close proximity, use the Joystick and/or
speed dial to reduce the speed of the wheelchair.

Do not drive the vehicle if the controller indicates that the battery is low, since the wheelchair may
stop operating and the user may become stranded. If the battery becomes completely empty, the
vehicle will stop suddenly and the battery may be damaged.

Make sure that the battery charger that is used with the vehicle has a drive inhibit function that is
correctly connected for use with the controller. This drive inhibit feature is intended to prevent the
chair from driving while the battery is being charged. If you are not sure, ask your dealer.

Do not use battery chargers with a higher current rate that is specified in the manual of your
wheelchair.

If operator of the wheelchair is left with limited or no mobility for any reason (for example,
because the wheelchair loses electric power or breaks down), it is important that they can seek
assistance from wherever they may be.

Go downhill slowly. Decrease the speed of the wheelchair when going downhill.

The controller can cause the vehicle to come to a sudden stop. If this can be dangerous to the
operator, the installer must install a seat belt, and the operator must wear this seat belt.

Operation of a vehicle on steep slopes can be dangerous. Before you drive up or down a slope,
make sure that the slope does not exceed the maximum safe slope of your wheelchair.

Do not use the park brake release on a slope.

Make sure that the controller does not become colder or hotter than the minimum and maximum
temperatures: -25°C to +50°C.

Most electronic equipment is influenced by Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). Be careful when
portable communications equipment is used in the area around such equipment.

Performance adjustments must only be made by healthcare professionals, or by persons who
completely understand the programming parameters, the adjustment process, the configuration of
the vehicle, and the capabilities of the driver. Wrong settings can make the vehicle uncontrollable
or unstable. An uncontrollable or unstable vehicle can cause an unsafe situation such as a crash,
with the risk of serious injury to the driver or bystanders, or damage to the vehicle or surrounding
property.

Performance adjustments must only be made indoors or outdoors in dry conditions.

If the wheelchair has not been fitted with a hand guard for the remote module, the user should be
made aware that their hand will not be protected from crushing, when, for example, maneuvering
towards a table.

Users should be aware that the surface of the controller can potentially get hot when exposed to
strong sunlight for long periods.

The XLR connector on the controller is to be used exclusively for the intended purpose of
charging the battery and/or programming the controller. Warranty will be voided if any
unauthorized device is connected to this port.
