Positioning aids do not replace
seatbelts
Wheelchair positioning aids do not replace vehicle mounted
seatbelts. In a traffic accident, they do not provide the same
protection as vehicle mounted seatbelts.
Do not remove the support wheels
Do not remove the support wheels. If you do, the wheelchair is
more likely to tip forward, which may cause injury.
Vehicle seating requirements
When you use the wheelchair as a seat in a vehicle, it must be
forward-facing and you must use a three-point belt restraint,
including a shoulder and pelvic belt, to reduce the risk of head
and chest impacts with vehicle components. The wheelchair is
only designed and tested for use in this configuration. If the
wheelchair is used in another vehicle seating configuration,
you may be injured or your wheelchair may be damaged.
22 - Safety
Do not use a damaged wheelchair
If the wheelchair or its accessories have suffered trans-
portation damage, damage during driving, or damage from
other causes, you must inform Permobil as soon as possible
and immediately stop using your wheelchair. There is a risk
that the wheelchair or its accessories can no longer be used
safely. Contact your service provider or Permobil for further
information.
Keep the electronics dry
Make sure that the electronics are not exposed to moisture. If
any of the shrouds or the joystick boot have cracks or tears,
replace them immediately. Exposure to moisture can cause
the wheelchair to short-circuit or catch fire, which can lead to
personal injury or property damage.
Only use authorised parts and
accessories
Only use parts and accessories that are authorised by
Permobil. Unauthorised parts or accessories may make the
wheelchair unstable or uncontrollable.
