4) It should be remembered that any change of the inclination angle of the backrest,
seat, foot support or tilt-in-space function might affect the effectiveness of the
belts and supports!

supports. If the patient has poor trunk control, the side supports will limit the
lateral movements, which could lead to the compression of the vest straps on the
neck of the patient.

suitably trained person, who is familiar with the instructions for the use of the
vest and the rules of its safe use.

repair or replace any part of the vest, please contact the manufacturer.
8) Do not use a damaged or incomplete vest, as this poses a serious threat to the
health and life of the patient!
9) Do not leave the patient in the device unattended!
10) The correctness of the use of the vest should be particularly controlled in
accordance with the recommendations in case of children, patients with impaired
memory or mentally ill.

the safe use of the vest.
