Introduction - Quantum 6000Z Basic Operation Instructions

MANDATORY! The following information pertains to power chairs equipped with
a factory-installed Pride Transit Securement System. Read this information in
its entirety before use in a motor vehicle. If you have any questions about this
information or about using your power chair as a seat in a motor vehicle, contact
your authorized Pride/Quantum Provider.
The occupied Pride Transit Securement System conforms with the standard of ANSI/RESNA WC/Vol. 4,
Section 19/ISO 7176-19 for the purpose of enabling power chairs to be secured in certain types of motor
vehicles. The Transit Securement System, including manufacturer-installed front and rear securement
brackets and pelvic belt anchoring brackets, has been crash tested in accordance with ANSI/RESNA
WC/Vol. 4, Section 19/ISO 7176-19, Frontal Impact Test, with a 168-lb. (76.2-kg) surrogate occupant.
Notwithstanding this standard and testing conformance, many government transportation agencies,
at the time of publication, have not approved any securement system of an occupied power chair in
a motor vehicle. Therefore, it is the position of Pride Mobility Products and Quantum that the Transit
Securement System should only be utilized to secure an occupied power chair being transported in a
motor vehicle at the user's discretion and in accordance with ANSI/RESNA WC/Vol. 4, Section 19/ISO
7176-19 standards, which are intended to increase safety, but do not suggest that compliance with the
standards will necessarily prevent serious injury or death of a secured power chair occupant during
motor vehicle transport.
In accordance with the ANSI/RESNA WC/Vol. 4, Section 19/ISO 7176-19 standards, the power chair
user should transfer into the vehicle seat and use the vehicle-installed belt restraint system if and
whenever feasible. The Transit Securement System is only available when factory-installed on new
power chairs, and cannot be retrofitted on existing power chairs or serviced in the field.
PROHIBITED! Do not modify your power chair in any way not authorized by Pride/
Quantum. Do not make alterations or substitutions to power chair structural parts
or frame components without consulting Pride/Quantum
