A. CHOOSE THE RIGHT CHAIR AND SAFETY
OPTIONS
Sunrise provides a choice of many wheelchair styles to meet the needs of the
wheelchair rider. However, final selection of the type of wheelchair, options
and adjustments rests solely with you and your health care provider. Choosing
the best chair and set-up for your safety depends on such things as:
1. Your disability, strength, balance and coordination.
2. The types of hazards you must overcome in daily use (where you live
and work, and other places you are likely to use your chair).
3. The need for options for your safety and comfort (such as anti-tip
tubes, positioning belts, or special seating systems).
B. REVIEW THIS MANUAL OFTEN
Before using this chair you, and each person who may assist you, should
read this entire manual and ensure you follow all instructions. Review the
warnings often, until they are second nature to you.
