Informational Supplement

Securing the Power Chair Occupant (Applies to Transit Systems Rated for Occupied Use Only)

Once the power chair has been properly secured, it is essential that the power chair occupant be protected for transport.

WARNING! The power chair occupant must be secured with dynamically crash-tested and approved pelvic and upper-torso belts or with a five-point child restraint harness as part of

WTORS.

„Always secure the power chair occupant in a forward-facing position in the vehicle.

„Place the pelvic belt across the front of the pelvis near the upper thighs, not high over the abdomen.

WARNING! The pelvic belt should be angled between 45 and 75 degrees to the horizontal when viewed from the side. However, if the user cannot achieve this standard, an optional zone of 30 to 45 degrees can be utilized safely.
