VI TRANSPORTING THE E&J METRO IC3
Warning: This wheelchair does not offer seating or
occupant restraint equivalent to the seat provided
in a motor vehicle! To increase your safety while
traveling in a motor vehicle, always transfer to the
vehicle seat and use the restraint provided by the
vehicle manufacturer.
The Metro IC3 can easily be transported by folding the wheelchair:
1. Detach front rigging from wheelchair.
2. Remove the seat cushion, if so equipped.
3. Fold the wheelchair: pull up sharply on the seat sling at front
and rear center at the same time. To fold wheelchair completely,
tip the wheelchair sideways (so wheel won't drag) and press
sides together.
4. If limited space necessitates removing the rear wheels, see
Remove rear wheels in Part V, ADJUSTMENTS.
