4.1. Observations before transport of wheelchairs in
vehicles
• We recommend that wheelchair users should transfer to the
seat of the vehicle and use the installed restraint system of
the vehicle whenever feasible.
• The wheelchairs are tested in a basic configuration. The use
in other configurations has not been tested. Please contact
your dealer for further information.
• Auxiliary wheelchair equipment is either secured to the
wheelchair or removed from the wheelchair and secured in
the vehicle during transit. (i.e. table trays).
• Alterations or substitutions are not to be made to points of
the wheelchair or to structural and frame parts without the
written consent of Invacare
®
.
• A wheelchair-anchored posture belt with metal buckle must
be fitted across the wheelchair occupant in addition to the lap
and diagonal occupant restraint (3-point belt).
• Belt restraints are not to be held away from the body by
wheelchair components or parts such as armrests, postural
restraints, wheels, etc. (Picture 22)
• The wheelchair must be securely fastened in the vehicle with
an ISO 10542-1:2012 approved 4-point belt system, according
to the methods described in the manual.
• The occupied wheelchair must be tied down in an forward-
facing position, with the parking brake applied.
• The wheelchair backrest should be positioned as close as
possible to 90 degrees.
Please observe that even if these products and
recommendations are provided in order to increase safety,
injury to vehicle occupants still might occur in the event of a
collision or other accidents and no guarantee is given in this
respect.
