The powerchair can be stopped immediately by turning it off:
Press the I/0 button.
Warning! When the powerchair is turned off, the electric brake is
activated immediately. This will cause a very sudden stop. The chair
must therefore only in emergencies be turned off while it is still
moving. There is a risk of the user falling out of the chair and/or of
the chair tipping over!
release
Should it be necessary to manoeuvre the chair manually, the electric
brake and motor can be released by turning the two handles
located on top of the motor blocks clockwise to the “FREE WHEEL”
position.
note! It is not possible to operate the Blues 100 powerchair
electrically when the release function is in use. Turn the two
handles back to “DRIVE” immediately after manoeuvring the chair.
Warning! Do not attempt to manoeuvre the chair manually when
the motor is still in gear, when the chair is on a sloping surface, on
a landing or in a similar situation where the chair might start rolling
or lose control.
standing still and parKing
Always use the I/0 button to turn the powerchair off as soon as
you no longer want to drive it.
note! When the chair is turned on, power is consumed from the
batteries. It is therefore a good idea to turn off the chair when it is
parked.
