WARNING
Incorrect application of the belt
Throttling, suffocation or strangulation due to sliding forward or down in the product
► Always use the positioning system in combination with a positioning groin strap that has been put on and
adjusted correctly to stabilise the pelvis.
► The positioning system must fit closely but not too tightly. To avoid injury to the user, it should be possible to
slide two fingers comfortably between the positioning system and the upper body.
► The positioning system is intended to support the area of the upper body from the front. It must be put on and
positioned in such a way that the neck and the throat area remain free at all times. Follow the positioning
instructions.
► To put the product on and adjust it correctly, follow the information in these instructions for use so that the
user cannot slide into a hazardous position.
