QUICK START GUIDE
Introduction
Permobil stresses solutions above products. These solutions
can be for complicated customer needs or for specific
seating and mobility needs.
Our products consist of a chassis and several seating systems
that meet simple and complex mobility and seating needs.
The seamless integration of the correct chassis and seating
components results in an electric wheelchair perfectly adapted
to the user.

This wheelchair is suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
When using indoors, you must use it with normal caution.
When outdoors you must ensure that you go very slowly on
hills and do not go over edges greater than 7 - 8 cm.
Take someone along on your first test trip. A test trip is
intended to determine how best to handle the wheelchair;
you may need some help with this.

The electronics in the control panel "interprets" the joy-
stick's movements and directs the motions the operator
wants the wheelchair to make. There are no complicated
user techniques for normal riding, which is an advantage for
an inexperienced user. A good way to start is simply to
move the joystick in the direction in which you want to
move. The wheelchair then rolls where the joystick points.
2. DRIVING TECHNIQUE
WATCH OUT!
Always remember to move slowly and to avoid hard
braking and abrupt sideways movements.

Permobil does its best to adjust the arm and leg supports to
suit the user. Your dealer is responsible for making the
definitive adjustments upon delivery.

Batteries must be charged regularly to obtain the best possible
riding time per charge and to ensure long operational life.
Always turn off the wheelchair when not in use and do not
empty the batteries completely. Make a habit of charging the
batteries whenever you are not using the wheelchair.
You can tell whether the batteries need charging by looking
at the battery voltage on the control panel. Should your
batteries become completely empty it is important to recharge
them right away because being fully discharged shortens the
batteries' operational life. The charger connection point is
right above the batteries on most of our wheelchairs.
