A. CHOOSE THE RIGHT CHAIR & SAFETY OPTIONS
Sunrise provides a choice of many wheelchair styles to meet the needs of the wheel-
chair rider. However, final selection of the type of wheelchair, options and adjustments
rests solely with you and your health care advisor. Choosing the best chair and set-up
for your safety depends on such things as:
1. Your disability, strength, balance and coordination.
2. The types of hazards you must overcome in daily use (where you live and work,
and other places you are likely to use your chair).
3. The need for options for your safety and comfort (such as anti-tip tubes, posi-
tioning belts, or special seating systems).
B. REVIEW THIS MANUAL OFTEN
Before using this chair you, and each person who may assist you, should
read this entire manual and make sure to follow all instructions. Review the warnings
often, until they are second nature to you.

your chair.
3. VII — WARNINGS — For safe use

4. VIII — WARNINGS — COMPONENTS & OPTIONS
Here you will learn about the components of your chair and options you can select for
safety. Consult your authorized supplier and your health care advisor to help you
choose the best set-up and options for safe use.

al. Heed all warnings in this section. If you fail to do so a fall, tip-over or loss
of control may occur and cause severe injury to the rider or others.
