COMFORT ADJUSTMENTS
After becoming familiar with your power chair’s operation, you may find the need to make some adjustments to increase
your comfort, such as seat height and angle, armrest angle, foot platform height and angle, and controller position.
NOTE: If your power chair is equipped with a Synergy Seat or TRU-Balance Power Positioning System, refer
to the seat adjustment information contained in separate manuals. If your power chair is equipped with a
contoured seating system, refer to the following information.

Quantum Rehab Provider.
