Driving on Different Surfaces

The wheelchair can be used in drive mode on a variety of surfaces, for example on snow, gravel or sand. However, particular caution is required and the following must be observed:

  • Always proceed slowly when travelling on difficult or uneven terrain.

  • Do not operate on surfaces where the wheelchair can get stuck (e.g. heavy snow or very soft sand).

  • Do not go through shallow areas containing water (more than 5 cm).

  • Always use extreme caution on wet surfaces and never accelerate, turn sharply or brake abruptly, as the wheels may lose their grip.
