SPECIAL NOTES
WHEELCHAIR TIE-DOWN RESTRAINTS AND
SEAT POSITIONING STRAPS
Invacare recommends that wheelchair users
NOT be transported in vehicles of any kind while
in wheelchairs. As of this date, the Department
of Transportation has not approved any tie-down
systems for transportation of a user while in a
wheelchair, in a moving vehicle of any type.
It is Invacare’s position that users of wheelchairs
should be transferred into appropriate seating in
vehicles for transportation and use be made of
the restraints made available by the auto
industry. Invacare cannot and does not
recommend any wheelchair transportation
systems.
AS REGARDS RESTRAINTS - SEAT POSITIONING
STRAPS - IT IS THE OBLIGATION OF THE DME DEALER,
THERAPISTS AND OTHER HEALTH CARE PROFES-
SIONALS TO DETERMINE IF A SEATING POSITION-
ING STRAP IS REQUIRED TO ENSURE THE SAFE OP-
ERATION OF THIS EQUIPMENT BY THE USER. SERI-
OUS INJURY CAN OCCUR IN THE EVENT OF A FALL

SAFETY SUMMARY
The following recommendations are made for the
safe installation and use of the ADULT LAP BELT:
GENERAL WARNINGS
DO NOT install this equipment without first
reading and understanding this instruction sheet.
If you are unable to understand these
instructions, contact a healthcare professional,
dealer or technical personnel if applicable be-
fore attempting to install this equipment - other-
wise, injury or damage may occur.
Ensure that the seat is fixed to the wheelchair. A
loose seat may lead to potentially dangerous
situations with positioning devices.
SAFETY SUMMARY (CONTINUED)
GENERAL WARNINGS
It is strongly recommended that the lap belt be
strapped across either the leg or hip area. This
can be achieved by using an angle of 45
o
and
90
o
, this is referring to the angle the lap belt makes
with the seating surface. DO NOT use angles less
than 45
o
or parallel to the seating surface. This
makes it easier for the user to slip under the belt.
