12.8 Other Transport requirements:

The wheelchair may be transported by road, rail, sea or
air as luggage, (see warning below).
Before you travel, please contact the appropriate carrier

information about the wheelchairsuch as the wheelchair
mass and overall dimensions. This information can be
found in the relevant model tables in section 14.0.
WARNING!
If the wheelchair is transported by air, the batteries may
need to be removed as the batteries supplied are not
IATA approved for air travel. Your dealer can assist in
supplying batteries that are IATA approved.
If transporting the wheelchair by road as luggage, it may
need to be secured to prevent unintended movement
into other vehicle passengers in the event of a sudden
stop or placed in a space reserved for luggage. Your
wheelchair can be secured by attaching suitable
restraints, (see section 12.5).
