Intended use of the vehicle
This vehicle is designed for use by adults with a disability (up to the maximum recommended weight – see
Technical Specification sheet) who require a manoeuvrable, robust, comfortable powerchair with a good range.
Mid-wheel drive with pneumatic tyres makes the P327 powerchair most capable outdoors as well as highly
manoeuvrable for use in tight spaces indoors.
The P327 powerchairs are intended for use in the home, for use in shopping precincts and trips on reasonably
paved areas. Kerbs should be avoided, but the P327 Powerchair can mount kerbs and small obstacles up to
that specified in the Technical Specification.
Users could endanger themselves and others if they are not capable of driving this Powerchair safely. Dealers
will advise on the most suitable vehicle from the Electric Mobility range, but it is up to users to ensure that they
have the manual dexterity to drive the vehicle, adequate sight and hearing to perceive danger in time, and can
at all times operate the Powerchair safely in the expected conditions. If in doubt we suggest you consult a
healthcare professional or your nearest dealer for advice on the most suitable Powerchair for your particular
condition. Users should also regularly assess their ability to operate their vehicle safely.
These Powerchairs have relatively small front and rear wheels for good manoeuvrability so they should not be
used on uneven, potholed or rutted surfaces or slippery grassy areas.
Within this manual there are important safety notices. They are clearly marked with the sign (left)
Make sure that you understand all these notices. If you have any doubt, contact your dealer.
