TRANSPORTING YOUR CHAIR
If you will be traveling with your power chair, you may find it necessary to use a lift/elevation
product or portable ramp to aid in transportation. ActiveCare suggests you closely review the
instructions, specifications, and safety information included with the lift/elevation product
before using that product.
Warning!
Never sit on your power chair when it is being used in connection with any type
of lift/elevation product or portable ramp. Your power chair was not designed
with such use in mind and any damage or injury incurred from such use is not
the responsibility of ActiveCare.
ActiveCare recommends that you do not remain seated in your power chair while traveling in a
motor vehicle. The power chair should be stowed in the trunk of a car or in the back of a truck
or van with batteries removed and properly secured.
