The Penny and Giles Pilot + control pod
Summary
1. To steer, simply move the
joystick in the direction you wish
to go (Fig. 22).
2. The further you move the
joystick, the faster you will go.
3. New users should use slower
speeds until they are confident
when driving the power chair.
Adjust the speed range as
explained on the previous
pages.
4. The brakes will automatically
stop the wheelchair from any
speed when the joystick is
released.
5. Switching off immediately
applies braking and is not
recommended for normal use.
6. It is important that the chair is
stationary when changing
direction from reverse to
forward.
7. Always switch to off before
getting into or out of the chair.
