Wheelchair as a car seat
Wheelchairs are not designed for use as passenger seats in vehicles and do not provide the same
level of safety as regular vehicle passenger seats, regardless of how well they are fastened and
secured inside the vehicle. DIETZ therefore recommends to seat wheelchair users on regular vehi
-
cle seats whenever possible.
The CANEO_S is ISO 7176-19-compliant and therefore suitable for use as a passenger seat in
vehicles.
