6. ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE WARNING
The power wheelchair may be aected by electromagnetic interference (EMI). Therefore, it’s quite
essential for users to familiarize the instructions.
This section aims to describe the problems caused by the electromagnetic interference, which
can help users understand and take protective measures against the risks.
No modication of any form to the power wheelchair is allowed, including adding or removing
any parts, in case of decreasing its anti-interference ability.
The Interference of Electromagnetic Waves
The power wheelchair is susceptible to electromagnetic waves, the sources of
which come from broadcasting stations, TV stations, radio transmitters, and
the communication equipment such as two-way radios. Interference from these
electromagnetic waves may cause malfunction or permanent damage to the
wheelchair’s braking and control system. The power wheelchair has passed
the 30 V/m EMI test and has a certain degree of immunity to most common
electromagnetic energy sources in life.
1. Stay away from all radio wave emission sources, such as TV stations, Radio
station, etc.
2. If interference does occur and causes unintended movement to the
wheelchair in an uncontrolled manner, cut o the power immediately.

7. SAFETY
1. Keep tools and other metal objects away from both ends of the battery. If
contacted, short-circuit or electric shock may occur and cause injury.
2. Health care personnel shall receive professional training and guidance in safe use of the
power wheelchair.
3. You shall rst familiarize yourself with the power wheelchair before use.
4. You shall practice operating the power wheelchair with the aid of the health care
personnel until you are condent enough to independently, skillfully and safely perform
the operations, such as moving forward, turning, crossing obstacles, braking, etc.
5. Do not perform unfamiliar operations if you cannot conrm the safety.
6. You shall check the operating site in advance, identify the safety in the area and make
preparations for taking protective measures against the risk.
USERS
CAREGIVERS

combining with the advice of the doctors, nurses and physiotherapists.
2. When pushing the power wheelchair, you have to pull the electromagnetic unlock valve to
the Free Wheel or Unlock Mode. In this case, the brakes on the controller will completely
not work.
3. Following issues shall be focused on when pushing the power wheelchair:
1) You shall help users to keep their body in the correct posture in accordance with
the dynamics of the human body, in order not to hurt users’ back. You can slightly
bend your knees and straighten your back vertical when lifting up users or inclined
power wheelchair.
2) Before operating, you shall tell users what you intend to do, your reasons for
doing so and what you want them to do, which will help users to make preparations
against the accidental injuries.

7. SAFETY
BODY INCLINATION AND EXTENSION
Reaching out your hands or tilting your body will aect the weight balance of the electric
wheelchair. If you do not position your body correctly, you may fall o or tip over from the
wheelchair.
Followings are a few measures against the risk of making users injured or damaging the power
wheelchair:
1. If you have to shift your body weight such as lifting your body at one side or leaving the
seat, please do not lean your body out of the range of the seat cushion. When moving
forward on your seat, do not lean your body excessively. Your hip must be always in
contact with the seat cushion.
2. Do not reach your hands to get the things farther than your capability as this may result in
falling due to lost balance.
3. Under no circumstance should you try to pick up anything through the space between
your knees or in front of your body.
4. When you extend your body, do not exert force on the footrest to avoid the wheelchair
from tipping over, which may result in serious injury.
5. Do not lean against the top of the backrest in case of falling and damaging the backrest.
1. Move your wheelchair as close as possible to the target position.
2. If you move your wheelchair beyond the target position, please move
backwards to approach it.
3. After reaching the target position, please turn o the power and hold
the handrail tightly, which prevents the risk of falling if the electric
wheelchair is tilted.
GETTING DRESSED ON THE WHEELCHAIR
Note: When you get dressed in the wheelchair, please make sure the power is o to prevent the
wheelchair from moving due to accidental touch of the joystick.

16
