Use
Users can choose the method for getting into and out of the wheelchair which is most suitable for them. The
respective procedure should be discussed and practised with a therapist.
As a rule, the frame tubes, seat bottom or side panels can be used as supports for getting into the wheelchair.
If getting in independently is not possible, transferring or getting in always has to be performed with the help of an
assistant. The manufacturer also offers transfer aids for getting in, such as transfer boards.
