USE:
WARNING!
This product should only be
used for positioning a person in a wheelchair or
work chair. It is NOT intended for use as a
transportation safety device, as a personal
restraint device, or in any other application
where its failure could result in injury. Misuse of
this product is unauthorized and unsafe.
WARNING!
Accidental release of this chest
belt can allow the user to slip down or fall from
the wheelchair. If the user’s movements or
cognitive abilities could lead to accidental
release, a caregiver must be present at all times
during its use. Ensure that all caregivers know
how to unfasten the product. Failure to do so
may delay release in an emergency.
WARNING!
As with any new seating
support, this product may change the way a
person sits. Users must continue to practice
regular pressure relief activities and skin
integrity checks, not only where this product
contacts the user, but also in primary pres-
sure-bearing areas such as the sacrum, legs,
and buttocks. If increased skin redness or
irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult
your physician or seating specialist. Failure to
do so may result in serious injury, such as
pressure ulcers.

Check periodically for
signs of wear in the stitching, webbing, and
pads. If significant wear is found, contact your

Bodypoint. Under no circumstance should this
product be altered or repaired by unqualified
persons – health and safety depend on it!
CLEANING:
Machine wash, hot,
60°C (140°F). Do not bleach. Tumble dry, low
temperature, or drip dry. Do not iron. (Placing
the product inside a cloth bag during washing
helps prevent scratches to the product and the
machine.)
