4.6 Transportation
4.6.1 KM-8000 Series (KM-8020/ KM-8520/ KM-8020X/ KM-8520X) fulfils the
performance requirements for a “Crash Test” of ISO 7176-19 (Report No.
MBK 02/1039) and is suitable to use as a seat in vehicles that have been
adapted for this purpose. The wheelchair must be securely restrained as
described in this manual. KM-8000 Series was tested with a four point
webbing system. For further information on the use of wheelchair
restraints, please refer to the manufacturer's user guide.
4.6.2 KARMA always recommend that the user transfers to the vehicle seat,
because using a wheelchair as a seat in a vehicle does not provide the
equivalent level of safety of a vehicle seating system.
WARNING:
● Please transfer to a vehicle seat in the vehicle in all permitted cases.
4.6.3 Before use
4.6.3.1 Please detach all easily removable accessories from the wheelchair and
store them in a safe place where they cannot move around and become a
safety hazard.
4.6.3.2 A four point tie-down system should tightly fasten the lower
wheelchair frame to the transport vehicle. The Tie down Label
(see the hook mark at the right) indicates the position of the
fixing points for the tie down restraints on the wheelchair.
4.6.3.3 An occupant restraint system using both a pelvic belt and harness must also
be fastened to the transport vehicle to insure user safety. Again, please
refer to the restraint system's instructions.
4.6.3.4 The attendant / transporter must double-check all fastening points for
proper connection and tightness to assure the wheelchair user's safety.
The attendant / transporter must fully understand how to use the fastening
system and its weight limitations.
