WARNING
Risk of injury due to improper transportation. Pre-in-
stalled vehicle seats with corresponding restraint systems
offer optimum protection for occupants in case of an ac-
cident. The B600 power wheelchair should only be used
as a seat in a vehicle for the disabled in exceptional cases,
and only in conjunction with the safety elements and re-
straint systems offered by Otto Bock. For more informa-
tion, please refer to our brochure "Using your Wheelchair
/ Seating Shell Mobility Base or Buggy for Transportation
in a Vehicle for the Disabled", article no. 646D158.
CAUTION
Risk of injury due to insufficient restraints. Secure the
power wheelchair during transportation in another vehicle
by tightening the tensioning straps properly.
The frame of the power wheelchair has 4 eyelets for the at-
tachment of tensioning straps.
