5.6 Transporting the wheelchair
First of all we have to point out that transporting a person sitting in a wheelchair
signifies a considerable security risk!
In principle, a wheelchair may only be transported unoccupied!
Therefore, transporting and securing a wheelchair in a vehicle, with or without
occupant, is always at your own risk. SORG Rollstuhltechnik GmbH + Co.KG will not
be liable for injured people or damaged materials, resulting from such a transport.
At its immovable points the unoccupied wheelchair must be secured in the vehicle
with suitable securing devices, so it will not put passengers in danger in case of a
sudden brake manoeuvre!
In order to transport a wheelchair as instructed, it must absolutely be equipped with
an AMF-system or a similar retention system with MOT-certificate (Technical Authority
Inspection). In addition to this, the vehicle must be equipped with a headrest, firmly
connected with the vehicle, as well as with an integrated person retention system on
the basis of three point seatbelt if the wheelchair is to be transported together with its
occupant.

5.7 Rolling off
Zuerst bringen Sie den Siro II in eine senkrechte Sitzposition. Dann kippt die
Begleitperson den Rollstuhl am Ankippbügel an und zieht ihn rückwärts mit den
Schiebgriffrohren am Hindernis hoch.
Sicherheitshinweise:
Auf keinen Fall an der Schiebestange oder dem Schiebebügelgriff hochziehen. Der
Schiebebügelgriff könnten aus Versehen nicht richtig festgezogen sein, wodurch sich
der Rollstuhl vom Griff lösen und es zu schweren Verletzungen kommen kann.
Zur Sicherheit sollte eine zweite Person unterhalb des Rollstuhls am Rahmen
(nicht an den Beinstützen!) den Vorgang unterstützen und absichern.
5.8 Carrying
Your child should, together with its wheelchair, be carried by an assistant only in
extremely seldom exceptions. To the most part it will be easier rolling off the
wheelchair over the obstacle with its driving wheels! And if it really should be
unavoidable, only frame and back tubes are suited for carrying.
Safety precautions:
The extendable sliding handles, as well, may in no circumstances be used for carrying
the wheelchair. When wheeling with your chair, never use escalators! Not even with an
assistant and especially not being carried! Department stores and public institutions
with escalators always have suitable elevators.
