Heat and Fire Warnings

The wheelchair is made from metal and plastic materials and, as with all products made with such materials, it
can absorb heat from the sun when used outdoors or exposed to sunlight through windows etc.
This can result in the surfaces of the wheelchair becoming hot, so take care in using it and touching the
surfaces if it is left or used in such an environment.
Fire and burning
The seat and backrest materials have been tested to ensure compliance with ISO requirements for cigarette
and match flame equivalent and are non flammable but care must still be exercised if using cigarettes or other
smoking products, or sources of heat, not to drop them onto the seat and/or backrest where they can
become trapped between contacting/trap points on the wheelchair.
