4.8.1 Installing the Posture Belt for Positioning
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 could be used in addition to,
but never as a substitute for an approved passenger
restraint system (3-point belt)!
The purpose of using the posture belt as a positioning
help is to position the user and to give him / her a
better posture.
