3.2 Seat heights
Usually, the seat height at the back is adjusted
to be approx. 2-3 cm (0.8-1.2 in) lower than at
the front in order to obtain a secure and
comfortable sitting position with even
distribution of the seat pressure and to
straighten up the pelvis. (Differing adjustments
may also make sense in individual cases.)
In the case of Kika, the entire seat unit may be
altered via the gas pressure spring (there is no
other option for this purpose). Therefore the
best way to obtain the desired seat inclination
is by using the tilting mechanism.

ATTENTION
When adjusting the seat height on the front,
you should always make sure that you can
access tables easily without your knees hitting
their edges. Corresponding to the position of
the foot rest, the casters must be free to rotate
360°.
Adjustment of seat height
By modifying the seat carrier plate, you may
alter the seat height by up to 2.5 cm (1 in)
differing from the height adjusted when the
wheelchair is leaving our factory.

and back completely
•

position
