Sunrise Medical QUICKIE Sedeo Ergo Seating Manual page 17

Adaptation/Adjustment:
Seat the user into the wheelchair.
• Feed the buckle on the chest strap through the loop, (Fig.5.9).
• Pull the chest strap so that it fully supports the users upper body
firmly and comfortably, (Fig.5.10).
• Ensure that chest strap is not too tight.
• Close the buckle until a loud click is heard, (Fig.5.11).
• The D-Ring facilitates easy adjustment for the user, (Fig.5.12).
• Ensure the chest strap fully supports the user and that there
is enough room to fit a hands width between the user and the
support. (Fig 5.13).
Safety:
In addition to the chest strap latches, the chest strap incorporates
two further safety features that prevent the unintended opening of
the belt.
Each of the chest strap latches is secured with an overlaying safety
Velcro strap. In addition to these, on each side of the chest strap
there is a securing strap which is guided through the D-Ring adding
another degree of safety.
WARNING!
• Never use the stand-up function without the knee fixation, chest
strap and positioning belt attached and safely locked.
• Make sure the rider does not slide in the wheelchair seat. If this
occurs, the rider may suffer chest compression or suffocate due to
pressure from the supports.
• Never use positioning supports as a patient restraint.
• Never use positioning supports on a user who is comatose or
agitated.
