4.8 Posture belt
The wheelchair can be equipped with a posture belt. It
prevents the user from sliding downward in the wheelchair
or from falling out of the wheelchair. The posture belt is
not a positioning device.
WARNING!
Risk of serious injury / strangulation
A loose belt can allow the user to slip down and
create a risk of strangulation.
– The posture belt should be mounted by
a qualified technician and fitted by the
responsible prescriber.
– Always make sure that the posture belt is
tightly fitted across the lower pelvis.
– Each time the posture belt is used, check if it
fits properly. Changing the seat and/or backrest
angle, the cushion and even your clothes
influence the fit of the belt.
WARNING!
Risk of serious injury during transport
In a vehicle, a user in his wheelchair must be
secured by a safety belt (3-point belt). A posture
belt only is not sufficient as a personal restraint
device.
– Use the posture belt as a complement, but not
as a substitute to the 3-point safety belt, when
transporting the wheelchair user in a vehicle.
Closing and opening the posture belt
Ensure that you are sitting fully back in the seat and that the
pelvis is as upright and symmetrical as possible.

Adjusting the length
The posture belt has the good length, when there’s
just sufficient space for a flat hand between body
and belt.
