Transportation in vehicles

Etac's wheelchairs are crash-tested and approved according to ISO 

7176-19 (see Section ”Tests and warranties” in  

the manual). 
Etac recommends in the following order:
1)  The user transfers to a seat in the vehicle and uses the vehicle’s 

3-point belt while travelling. The wheelchair is then placed in the 

boot or safely in the back seat so that it cannot overturn or roll.

•  The wheelchair should preferably be placed in the car boot.

•    If the wheelchair is placed on the back seat, ensure that it 

cannot overturn or roll. If possible secure the wheelchair with 

the car’s safety belt.

2)  The wheelchair is secured facing forwards in the vehicle as per 

the below, the user uses a separate 3-point belt that is secured in 

the vehicle. This is the way in which the wheelchair is tested and 

approved according to ISO 7176-19.

Securing

•  

 

The restraining device must not be passed through the wheels 

or around the back tubes.

• See section “CE-marking, tests”

•  Accessories that can be detached without tools must be 

removed and clamped

3)  

 

According to Directive 2001/85/EC, appendix VII, point 3.8.3, 

there may be specially marked wheelchair locations in vehicles that 

permit transport with a wheelchair facing in the direction of travel. 

If this means of travel is used, the user/carer must be aware while 

travelling, prepared for sudden movements and have the capacity 

to maintain a safe sitting position throughout the entire journey. The 

user’s disabilities must not be of such an extent that he/she is not 

able to hold onto the handles fitted in the vehicle when there are 

changes of speed or direction.

• The parking brake should be used.

• The anti-tips must be activated.

•  Accessories that can be removed without tools must be remo-

ved and secured.

•  A correctly configured Etac head support must be used (see 

Section ”Seat comfort settings”).

• A positioning belt should be used.
