6.12 Lap belt
CAUTION
Incorrectly adjusted safety belt
Incorrect user posture, illness, falling of the user due to installation/adjustment errors
►
Do not modify the settings established by the qualified personnel. In case of problems with the adjustments
(unsatisfactory sitting position) please contact the qualified personnel who fitted the product.
►
The lap belt has to fit closely but not too tightly so the user is not injured. Sliding two fingers comfortably
between the belt and thigh should be possible.
►
Have the settings of the belt system checked regularly. Adjustments may be required due to the growth of the
user or because of changes in the course of the disease or different clothing.
The lap belt prevents the user from slipping and supports positioning.
It is installed on the product by qualified personnel if needed and adapted to the requirements of the user.
Information about subsequent acquisition and mounting is provided by the qualified personnel that handed over the
product.
Using the lap belt
1) Unfasten the belt by means of the metal snap/buckle.
2) Place the user in an upright, 90° seated position (if physiologically possible). Ensure that the back is up against
the backrest padding (if physiologically possible).
3) Fasten the belt by means of the metal snap or buckle.
4) The lap belt should be at an angle of about 60° to the seat surface in front of the pelvic bone (see fig. 35).
Possible errors
•
The lap belt is positioned above the pelvis of the user in the area of the soft part of the stomach.
•
The hips of the user have slipped forward, the user is not sitting upright in the seat. This does not apply if the
user cannot assume a 90° seating position.
•
If the lap belt is too loose, the user can shift/slide out to the front.
