If you secure the mobility device with the Docking
Station system and use a Modulite seat and the headrest
is not set to the lowest possible position, the headrest
might come loose during an accident.

possible position. Refer to 5.7.2 Adjusting the height

In order to use a mobility device as a motor vehicle seat,
it needs to be fitted with attachment points to enable
anchoring in the motor vehicle. These accessories may be
included in the standard scope of mobility device order and
delivery in some countries (UK for example), but may also
be obtained from Invacare as an option in other countries.
This mobility device complies with the requirements of ISO 7176-19
and may be used as a vehicle seat in connection with an anchoring
system that has been checked and approved in accordance with ISO
10542. The transporting vehicle must be professionally converted to
anchor the mobility device. Contact your vehicle's manufacturer for
more information.
The mobility device has undergone a crash test in which it was
anchored in the transporting vehicle's direction of travel. Other
configurations were not tested. The crash test dummy was secured
using pelvic and upper body safety belts. Both types of safety belt
should be used in order to minimize the risk of injuries to head or
upper body.
