Make sure that:
•
The 3 point safety belts sits close to the
user body
(not across the arm supports, wheels).
•
The webbing is not twisted.
•
The seat belt buckle and its release
button is positioned so that it will not be
contacted by wheelchair components
during crash.
Lock the dynamic functions – when mounted
– when the chair is used as a seat in a car.
Sudden spastic movements may harm other
passengers.
Use Netti Cushions when Netti wheelchair is
used as a seat in a car. Avoid any air-filled or
gel cushions that can collaps in an accident.
If a Netti head support is mounted correctly
it is very stable but does not replace the
need for external neck support mounted in
the car.
Netti Dynamic S has been crash tested
without any power kit etc. If, at a later point
of time a power kit, stair climber etc. is
mounted, you need to check if your power
assistant device is crash tested and approved
for wheelchairs being used as seat in a car. If
not, this must be dismounted when the
wheelchair is used as a seat in a car.
Never use the wheelchair as seat in cars if it
has been involved in an accident with impact
before it has been inspected and approved
for this by the manufacturer`s representative.
Never do alterations or substitutions to
wheelchair securement points or structural
and frame parts or componets without
consulting the manufacturer.
The rating of the wheelchair`s accomodation of
vehicle-anchored belt restrains is
A= good
.
Use hooks to fix the belts to the car fixing brackets.
Hook on a hook / carabine hook in the “eye-bolt”.
The angle of the straps should be close to 45°.
SECURING THE USER
Always use the occupant restraint belts in the car for
the wheelchair user. The corrective harnesses used
in a wheelchair are not safety belts. Use both pelvic
and shoulder restraints to reduce the possibility of
head and chest impact with vehicle components.
