Owner's Manual Permobil X850 MiniFlex Safety instructions
L
WARNING!
Transport
The wheelchair must only be transported in vehicles approved for this purpose. Always ask for confirmation of the
transporter that the vehicle is suitably designed, insured and equipped to transport a person in a wheelchair. A
wheelchair is not designed as a car seat and cannot offer the same degree of safety that is offered by standard car
seats, no matter how securely it has been fastened in the vehicle concerned.
Carefully check that the wheelchair is properly fixed and that the break release has not been activated (the
wheelchair drive wheels must be locked). The wheelchair must only be locked into position with loading straps from
the tie-down points at the front and rear, marked with yellow stickers, or by using a Permolock locking system. The
wheelchair must not be secured onto any other part of the wheelchair including the seat.
If the wheelchair needs to be transported with the user seated in it, be sure to use an approved attachment system
suitable for the total weight of the wheelchair to secure the wheelchair.
• Permobil recommends that the wheelchair be equipped with a head rest and that this is used during
transportation.
• During transportation, it is essential that you are secured with a three-point safety belt that is attached to the floor
and a side of the vehicle.
• Permobil positioning belts are designed to position the user only and not to protect you in the event of a motor
vehicle accident. The positioning belts do not replace use of a vehicle mounted restraint.
