General Warnings

WARNING
To determine and establish your particular safety limits, practice bending, reaching and transferring activities in several
combinations in the presence of a qualified healthcare professional before attempting active use of the wheelchair.
Avoid storing or using the wheelchair near open flame or combustible products. Serious injury or damage to property may
result.
DO NOT stand on the frame of the wheelchair.
DO NOT use the footplate as a platform. When getting in or out of the wheelchair, make sure that the footplates are in
the upward position.
ALWAYS use the handrims for self-propulsion. Inasmuch as the HANDRIMS are an option on this wheelchair (you may
order with or without the handrims), Invacare strongly recommends ordering the handrims as an additional safeguard for
the wheelchair user.
Invacare recommends that a non-folding device be installed to keep the wheelchair from being folded when left unoccupied
in a public place.
DO NOT operate on roads, streets or highways.
DO NOT allow children to play on or operate the wheelchair.
DO NOT operate on soft surfaces such as sand, grass, or gravel.
