B. Transit Use
It is always safest to transfer out of your wheelchair onto a seat in a motor
vehicle with appropriate seat and shoulder belts. Never use this wheelchair as a
seat in a motor vehicle unless it has been equipped with the Transit Option.
The Catalyst 5 Series wheelchair equipped with the Transit Option has been
tested to and passed the RESNA WC ‐ 4:2012, Section 19: Wheelchairs used
as seats in motor vehicles and ISO 7176 ‐ 19:2008 Wheelchairs ‐‐ Part 19:
Wheeled mobility devices for use as seats in motor vehicles . RESNA and
ISO standards are designed to test the structural integrity of the wheelchair as
a seat for use in a motor vehicle. These standards are also designed to create
compatibility with W heelchair T ie ‐ down and O ccupant R estraint S ystems
( WTORS ).
Not all configurations of the Catalyst 5 Series wheelchairs are compatible with the
Transit Option. Ki Mobility manages the configuration and does not offer the
Catalyst 5 Series wheelchair except in compatible configurations. If you make
changes to your Catalyst 5 Series wheelchair after your receive it, you should
contact your wheelchair provider or Ki Mobility to make sure it is appropriate to
continue to use your wheelchair as a seat in a motor vehicle.
If your Catalyst 5 Series wheelchair is equipped with the Heavy Duty Option and
the Transit Option you should not use it as a seat in a motor vehicle if you weigh
more than 300 lbs.
Aftermarket seating may have replaced the original equipment seat and back
support designed and tested as part of the Transit Option. Your wheelchair
provider should tell you if the seating they provided is original equipment or
replacement aftermarket seating. A complete system of wheelchair frame, seating,
W heelchair T ie ‐ down and O ccupant R estraint S ystems and a properly equipped
motor vehicle, that have all complied with the standards mentioned in this section,
should be in place before using a Catalyst 5 Series wheelchair equipped with
the Transit Option as a seat in a motor vehicle.
When using your wheelchair as a seat in a motor vehicle you should always
observe the following instructions:

The rider must be in a forward ‐ facing position.

The rider must not weigh more than 300 lbs.

Back packs and pouches should be removed and secured separately in the
motor vehicle. In the event of an accident these items can become
dangerous projectiles, which may injure or kill you or other occupants of the
motor vehicle.

The rider must use a W heelchair T ie ‐ down and O ccupant R estraint S ystem
that complies with RESNA WC ‐ 4:2012, Section 18: Wheelchair tiedown
