At night, use reflective tape on your chair and clothing.

Do not cross a road with dense fast-moving traffic of more than
two lanes.

Make eye contact with drivers before you go forward when you

Be extremely careful when you use your wheelchair on a wet or slick
surface. In case of any doubt do not hesitate to ask for help.

Weight Limitation
NEVER exceed the weight limit for combined weight of user and items
carried. Exceeding the weight limit may result in injury or damage to your
chair, a fall, tip-over or loss of control. (For weight limit, please refer to
table 1, page 6)
Terrain
Do not use your wheelchair on sand or gravel surface soils. This may
damage wheels or axles or loosen fasteners of your chair.
Seat Positioning Strap
Always wear your seat positioning strap. The seat positioning strap is
an option on this chair. You may order without the seat positioning
strap. To ensure an additional safeguard, Physipro strongly recommends
ordering the seat positioning strap. However, the seat positioning strap
as a primary purpose of positioning. It is not designed for use as a safety
device withstanding high stress loads such as auto or aircraft safety belts.
Immediately replace the strap If signs of wear appear. Serious injury can
occur in the event of a fall from a wheelchair.
