Transport
12.1 Transport without the user
When transporting the product in a vehicle, remove the wheels if necessary.
Follow the IATA (International Air Transport Association) rules and those of the relevant airline
when transporting the product in an aircraft. Inform the airline several days before your flight.
Use the SSR (special service request) codes if needed to describe the type of limited mobility.
The codes can be found on the internet, for example.
Visit www.iata.org for further information. The manufacturer recommends contacting the airline
directly before every flight to obtain information regarding special transport regulations.
12.2 Use in vehicles for transporting persons with reduced mobility
Always use the seats and personal restraint systems installed in the vehicle for transporting
persons with reduced mobility first. This is the only way to ensure optimum protection of pas-
sengers in the event of an accident.
The product may be used as a seat in a vehicle for transporting persons with reduced mobility
if the safety elements provided by the manufacturer and appropriate fastening and personal
restraint systems are used.
 The Kiddo Space has been tested with a test dummy secured in the front position with
a 3-point belt (facing forward). The product has not been tested for its suitability in
collisions other than those mentioned in the above standard.

When using the wheelchair as a seat in a vehicle for transporting persons with reduced
mobility, Veldink4kids requires that it be equipped with a head support (or head sup-
port system) that has been approved in the ISO 7176-19 crash test. If head supports
are installed in the vehicle for transporting persons with reduced mobility, they should
be used in the first instance.
 The Kiddo Space must be attached to the floor of the transport vehicle by an approved
4-point restraint system.

The positions of the four attachment points on the Kiddo Space are indicated by the
following sticker (see Figure 29, Figure 30).

The Kiddo Space can rotate about its own axis. Bear in mind you will need a turning
circle with a diameter of ±1.00 m for potential manoeuvring in the transport vehicle.
