WARNING!
Risk of sliding
The user may accidently slide down in the
wheelchair.

posture belt.
WARNING!
Safety risk
– The harness must not be used as a safety belt
during transport in a vehicle.
Make sure that the harness does not put too much
pressure on any point.
Belts/harnesses which are CE-marked for the purpose
of using on wheelchairs, can be mounted on the
chair with preserved CE-marking. The belt/harness
should be fitted by the responsible prescriber and be
mounted by a qualified technician. However, when
transporting the wheelchair in a vehicle, Invacare's
original posture belt must be used in addition to,
but never as a substitute for an approved passenger
restraint system (3-point belt)!
