Sterling S400 Instructions For Use Manual page 13

• The lap belt must be checked on a daily basis to
ensure it is adjusted correctly and it is free from any
obstruction or adverse wear.
• Failure to make sure that the lap belt is secure and
adjusted prior to use could cause serious injury to
the user. E.g. too loose a strap may allow the user to
slip down in the seat and risk suffocation.
Maintenance:
• Check lap belt, and securing components; at regular
intervals for any sign of fraying or damage.
• Replace if necessary.
• Clean the lap belt with warm soapy water and allow
to dry.
• The lap belt should easily allow a hands width of
space between the body and the belt, (Fig.4.12).
• Sunrise Medical also recommend that the fit of the
belt is checked on a daily basis to reduce the risk of
the end user inadvertently re-adjusting the belt to an
excessive length.
• If in doubt about the use and operation of the seat
belt then ask your healthcare professional, dealer, or
carer for assistance.
For your comfort, the Lap Belt must be correctly fitted to
the scooter. If you are unsure about the fitting or opera-
tion of this option, please contact your approved Sunrise
Medical dealer.
