Setting Up The Wheelchair; Seating System; Seat Depth; Seat Height - Sunrise Medical Quickie Q700-UP F Instructions For Use Manual

4.0 Setting up the wheelchair

Sunrise Medical wheelchairs can be adjusted according to
specific needs of the user.
In this, we make a distinction between wheelchair settings and
wheelchair seating adjustment options. Settings are carried
out once, the first time the wheelchair is going to be used.
They must be executed by qualified specialist, unless explicitly
stated otherwise. Seating adjustment options can be carried
out by the user. These adjustment options do not require the
use of tools.

4.1 Seating system

The extensive settings with respect to the seating system allow
for optimum support of the body (& Seating system). The
following setting options are possible:
1. Seat depth and seat width
2. Backrest angle
3. Armrest height/width
4. Lower leg length
5. Angle of the footplate
6. Legrest angle

4.2 Seat Depth

CAUTION!
For optimum comfort and driving experience of your FWD
powerchair, recommended seat depth relationship to user
weight is:
75kg user weight up to a seat depth of 44cm
90kg user weight up to a seat depth of 50cm,
160kg user weight up to a seat depth of 56cm
Where chair configuration allows, a recommended backrest
angle of 95° and a seat tilt of 5° will further improve the
driving experience.

4.3 Seat height

Depending on the specific circumstances of the user of the
wheelchair the seat height can be set. Every optional seat
height lies within the Rated slope as described in EN12184
(2014) Class B. Lowering the seat height has a positive
influence on the (dynamic) stability.
WARNING!
Increasing the seat height has a negative effect on dynamic
stability.

Adjusting the centre of gravity on a powered wheelchair is
both physically demanding and safety critical. Sunrise Medical
recommends that this adjustment is only performed by a

4.6 Control system programme

This wheelchair is equipped with a control system that can be
programmed by adjusting settings within the system. This is a
specialized job that needs training and can only be adjusted
with professional software. The end user is not allowed to
adjust these settings.
DANGER!
The incorrect setting of the parameters for the control system
may result in very dangerous situations.
Settings must be made by qualified specialists.
