16. If the width of the seat exceeds 420 mm at a camber angle of 7°, this may give problems
with the width of passageways.
17. The upholstery and the frame may get very hot if they are exposed to sunrays for a long

We recommend you use a properly approved seat in the vehicle and have the wheelchair
safely stored in the boot of the vehicle.

wheelchair to tip over backwards.
20. By travelling down a slope, the centre of gravity will move forwards, making it easier for the

The Kiddo Space has been successfully tested by TUV Rheinland to be a “crashtest safe” wheelchair,
in accordance with the ISO 7176-19 standard. It can therefore be transported with the occupant in it
(facing forward).. Attach the wheelchair with its occupant in it in a taxibus with a four-point securing
system!
22. In addition, always use a 3-point safety belt to safely transport the occupant of the
wheelchair (forward facing position when used in motor vehicle).
The optional wheelchair seat belt is not suitable for use as a safe.
