Precautions for using Electric Wheelchair

When using a power wheelchair, here are some things to keep in mind:

Read the instruction manual: Read and understand the instruction manual carefully before starting to use it. Understand the functions, operation methods and safety precautions of wheelchairs.

Seat belt use: Fasten your seat belt. Seat belts ensure stability and safety while driving and prevent falls or slips.

Drive smoothly: Pay attention to driving smoothly. Avoid sudden acceleration, braking, or rapid turns to avoid instability or tipping.

Avoid overloading: Make sure not to exceed the weight limit of your power wheelchair. Overloading may damage the wheelchair chassis or battery, affecting safety performance and lifespan.

Charging and battery maintenance: Charge regularly to ensure the battery is in good condition. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for charging and battery maintenance to extend battery life.

Obstacle avoidance: While driving, pay attention to surrounding obstacles and avoid collisions or getting stuck. Be aware of slopes, uneven areas, or other obstacles on the ground to ensure safe passage.

Safe parking: When parking, make sure the electric wheelchair is stationary and lock the brakes. Avoid parking on slopes to prevent slipping or losing control.

Regular maintenance: Check and maintain your electric wheelchair regularly. This includes checking tire pressure, brake function, seat stability and battery status.

Be aware of your surroundings: When using an electric wheelchair, be aware of your surroundings and follow local traffic rules. Be aware of pedestrians, vehicles and other obstacles to ensure safe driving.

Ramp Use: Use special caution when going up and down ramps. Make sure the speed is moderate and avoid sharp turns or sudden braking to ensure stability and safety.
