LOOPS
To remove the restraint belts, release tension in
the locking mechanism by tightening the belt
slightly more with the retractor knob before
pushing down the tension release lever found on
the retractor. Unhook the wheelchair and allow
the belts to retract. Guide the belts in, making
sure they remain untwisted as they retract.
Release the anchor by lifting the lock pin then
sliding out and up the anchor from the floor
pocket. Close the lid to prevent dirt from entering
the pocket cavity.
WARNING
Do not let restraint belts or occupant safety belts
rub against sharp edges. Do not bleach or dry
clean.
Wheelchair Occupant Restraint
Secure the wheelchair occupant in the following
manner:
Fix the lap belt to the pins on the retractors of the
rear restraint belts. Adjust the lap belt so it sits
snug across the hips. Make sure that you place
the lap belt buckle on the center aisle side.
Fasten the shoulder belt to the pin on the lap belt
buckle. A retractor adjusts shoulder belt length
automatically.
A snug fit with the lap belt positioned low on the
hips is necessary to maximize safety. The belt
should not be worn or twisted. Avoid pinching the
belt and/or hardware. Do not wear over rigid or
breakable objects such as eyeglasses, pens or
keys as these may cause injuries.
The safety belt buckle provided with the red
release button must always be located on the
center aisle side.
To release the belts, unfasten the shoulder belt
then press the red release button found on the lap
belt buckle.
