2.3 Safety Information on Driving and Freewheel Mode
Danger of injury if the vehicle tips over!
• Only ever negotiate gradients of up to the maximum defined in the Technical Specifications
and only with the backrest in an upright position, and the seat lifter in the lowest position (if
installed)!
• Only ever drive downhill at a maximum of 2/3 of the top speed! Avoid abrupt braking or
accelerating on gradients!
• If at all possible, avoid driving on slippery surfaces (such as snow, gravel, ice etc.) where
there is a danger of you losing control over the vehicle, especially on a gradient! If driving on
such a surface is inevitable, then always drive slowly and with the utmost caution!
• Never attempt to overcome an obstacle when on an uphill or downhill gradient!
