Overview of Operating Modes

The wheelchair can cope with many different obstacles and challenges in day-to-day life. To do so, it must be switched to the correct operating mode. The wheelchair is moved and steered using the joystick on the control panel. The various modes, for example stair or drive mode, can also be selected via the app.
