LOADING INTO THE
TRANSPORT VEHICLE
!
Attention:
For transportation in vehicles it is es-
sential that the user gets out of the
wheelchair and uses appropriate
seating in the vehicle. The transpor-
tation of persons in wheelchairs is
prohibited. – The wheelchair is not
designed to withstand the forces
which are generated in accidents,
which exposes the user to considera-
ble risks.
Before transporting the wheelchair,
ask your car dealer how to secure it
without risk to the existing fixtures or
other safety fittings!
Suitable fixing points can usually be
found in the car and in the vehicle
operating manual.
If the wheelchair is in the transport vehi-
cle, you or your helper should take the
following action:
– Operate parking brakes.
– Any parts that have been dismantled
from the wheelchair should be stored
safely in a protected place.
– Remove bags, walking sticks and oth-
er items not belonging to the wheel-
chair and stow these safely.
– Secure the wheelchair by way of
elasticated straps.
!
Attention:
The elasticated belts should only be
affixed to the structural parts of the
car envisaged for this purpose and
only to the wheelchair frame!

Attention:
The maximum admissible passenger
weight reduces in accordance with
the number of additional mounted
parts and possible luggage.
The admissible passenger (person)
weight is calculated on the basis of:
max. passenger weight (Table 1+2)
– actual weight
= admissible weight for
luggage or mounted parts.
I.e., the passenger and luggage
may not weigh more than the speci-
fied maximum passenger weight of
120 kg.
If the actual weight of the passenger
exceeds the calculated maximum
user (person) weight, reduce the
weight of additional mounted parts
and luggage.
If this is not possible, a more stable
version or another wheelchair model
must be used. Contact your MEYRA
specialist dealer in this respect.
