YOUR LEGAL AND GENERAL RESPONSIBILITIES
As a Powerchair user you must be aware of the risks involved to both yourself and others. However,
what is the position if you are involved in an accident and damage the property of a third party, or worse,
run into somebody and cause injuries? Many Powerchair users do not realise that they may be held liable
in such cases. We strongly recommend that you take out Third-Party Liability Insurance to cover you
against any possible claims from that direction. If you already have some other insurance policy, ask these
insurers what they can offer you for such cover. Alternatively, ask your
INVACARE
dealer who will be
able to advise you. In this way you buy yourself not only protection against possible costs, but also peace
of mind. You are also responsible to ensure your
Apollo Indoor/Outdoor Mk.II
is in a roadworthy
condition at all times.
