TRANSPORTING THE EJ777-2 TRANSPORT CHAIR
PREPARING THE EJ777-2 FOR TRANSPORT
WARNING: This Transport Chair does not offer seating or occupant restraint equiva-
lent to the seat provided in a motor vehicle! To increase your safety while traveling
in a motor vehicle, always transfer to the vehicle seat and use the restraint provided
by the vehicle manufacturer.
When transporting the Transport Chair in a motor vehicle, do not place the Trans-
port Chair where it will interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle or endanger
the driver or passengers. The front seat is not a good location to store a Transport
Chair during transport, as the Transport Chair can be dislodged and become a seri-
ous hazard to the vehicle driver. Always take precautions to avoid personal injury
when loading or lifting a Transport Chair into or out of a vehicle. The Transport Chair
can easily be transported in the rear seat or the trunk.
