Safety
Safety information is indicated with the warning symbol.
Follow the instructions carefully next to these warning symbols! Not paying careful attention to these instructions could result in
physical injury or damage to the wheelchair base or the environment. Where ever possible, safety information is provided in the
relevant chapter.
Temperature

may cause burns or allergic reactions to the skin.
Moving parts
•
The wheelchair has moving and rotating parts. Contact with moving parts may result in serious physical injury or damage to
the seating system. Contact with the moving parts of the seating system should be avoided.
