A wheelchair user must never use the wheelchair which has seat belts installed without proper securement of the seat
belt around the user. Should the seat belt not be properly secured, the belt may become entangled in the wheels or an
external obstacle which may lead to the wheelchair coming to a sudden stop causing the user to fall out of the wheelchair.
If you ignore this Warning, you may incur serious or life-threatening injuries.

WARNING
The Velcro

®
the user to slip down and create a risk of strangulation. Have your seating specialist demonstrate its proper adjustment and
use. See Figures 7-8 and 7-9. Accidental release of the Velcro
the wheelchair. If the user's movements or cognitive abilities could lead to accidental release, a caregiver must be present
at all times during its use. Ensure that all caregivers know how to unfasten the product. Failure to do so may delay release
in an emergency. As with any new seating support, the Velcro
must continue to practice regular pressure relief activities and skin integrity checks, not only where this product contacts
the user, but also in primary pressure-bearing areas such as the sacrum, legs, and buttocks. If increased skin redness
or irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult your physician or seating specialist. Failure to do so may result in serious
injury, such as pressure ulcers.
