Safety Instructions
Transport
The wheelchair must be transported in or with transport solutions that have been approved for this
purpose.
Check that the wheelchair is properly secured. A defectively fastened chair can cause serious injury
to persons in the vehicle and serious damage to the vehicle.
Use Prohibited in Motor Vehicles
Permobil recommends that users NOT be transported in any kind of vehicle while in their wheelchair.
The only safe alternative is that users be transferred into factory vehicle seating for transportation
and use safety restraints made available by the auto industry. Permobil does not recommend any
wheelchair transportation systems.
Never sit in your wheelchair while in a moving vehicle. In an accident or sudden stop you may be
thrown from the chair and seriously injured or killed.
Permobil positioning belts are designed to position the user only and will not protect you in an acci-
dent. You may even receive further injury from the belts.

WARNING
Maintenance and Service
Carry out only the service and maintenance which are stated in the User’s Manual. All other service
and maintenance must be performed by a qualified service technician authorized by Permobil to per-
form such service on Permobil products
Do not use parts or accessories not authorized by Permobil. Use of unapproved ”aftermarket” acces-
sories and parts may cause changes in the wheelchair, which may make the wheelchair unstable or
uncontrollable. Such use may also void the warranty on the wheelchair.
Damages/malfunctions on the wheelchair and its accessories
If you experience that the wheelchair in any manner is not behaving as expected or if you suspect that
something is wrong: Stop operating as soon as possible and contact your service contact or Permobil
for more information.
It’s also of greatest importance that Permobil be informed if the wheelchair and its accessories have
been subjected to transport damages, damages during driving or damages due to another cause as
soon as possible after the event.
There exists a risk that the wheelchair and its accessories can no longer be used in a safe manner.
