12.2.2 How the user is secured within the wheelchair
Caution: there is a danger of injury if the user is not properly secured within the
wheelchair!
• Even if the wheelchair is fitted with a securing belt, this is no substitute for a proper seatbelt in
a travelling vehicle! It is imperative that a seatbelt tested to ISO 7176/19-2001 standards is
used!
• Seatbelts must be in contact with the user's body! They must not be held at a distance from
the user's body using parts of the wheelchair such as armrests or wheels!
• Seatbelts must be pulled as tightly as possible without causing the user discomfort!
• Seatbelts must not be positioned while twisted!
