• Check that all bulbs light up as they should and that the flashing frequency is 1.5 Hz ± 0.5 Hz.

requency of 3 Hz ± 0.5 Hz.

4.6 Test of adjustment device
If the wheelchair is equipped with an adjustment device:
• Check that all motors move in the right direction.
• Make sure that the mechanical end stops are secured and that they stop the adjustment device
motors, and thus use the automatic end stop tracking that is in the seat and light module (ISM).­

Connect a suitable battery charger or equivalent inhibit connecting device in the charging ­contact on the
joystick module and check that the wheelchair is prevented from running.
If inhibit contacts 2, 3, 4 and 5 are used for inhibiting or speed restriction, an appropriate test should be
performed in order to check that they are functioning as they should.
