WARNING! Pay attention to release
mechanisms
Adjust your restraint system such that the release mechanisms
cannot be pressed during a crash. If you fail to do so, it could
lead to bodily injury or death.
WARNING! Positioning aids do not replace
seatbelts
Wheelchair positioning aids do not replace vehicle mounted
seatbelts. In a traffic accident, they do not provide the same
protection as vehicle mounted seatbelts. If you use positioning
aids as a seat belt, it can lead to bodily injury or death.
WARNING! Use positioning aids at all times
Use securely fastened positioning aids, including your position-
ing belt, at all times. If you do not, you can sustain bodily
injuries.
WARNING! Do not overload the wheelchair
Do not use the wheelchair to pull any kind of object and never
hang excessive weights on the wheelchair. If you do, the
wheelchair may become less stable and injure you.
WARNING! Remain aware of your
wheelchair's dimensions
Always remain aware of your wheelchair's dimensions. Some
emergency exits or routes can be too small for your wheelchair
to navigate through them.
IMPORTANT! Do not modify the wheelchair
Do not modify your wheelchair or any of its components. Your
wheelchair has been configured specifically for your needs as
prescribed by your healthcare provider. Special skills, training,
and knowledge are needed to set up, modify, and repair the
wheelchair.
WARNING! Avoid steep slopes
Do not drive the wheelchair on slopes steeper than 10°. If you
do, the wheelchair may become less stable and injure you. For
maximum performance and stability, use caution on slopes
steeper than 6°.
WARNING! Use freewheel mode cautiously
Freewheel mode should only be used on level ground and when
an attendant is present to control the wheelchair. If you use
freewheel mode on an incline or without an attendant, you may
get injured or cause property damage.
