„The frontal clear zone (FCZ) is measured from the forwardmost point on the occupant’s head and should measure at least 26 in. (65 cm) if both a pelvic and upper-torso belt are used. See figure 7.

NOTE: The recommended frontal clear zone may not be achievable for power chair-seated vehicle operators.

„The rear clear zone (RCZ) is measured from the rearmost point on the occupant’s head and should measure at least 16 in. (40 cm). See figure 7.

„The seated head height (HHT) ranges from about 47 in. (120 cm) for a small adult female to about 61 in. (155 cm) for a tall adult male. See figure 7.

WARNING! Always allow for proper clear zones when securing an occupied power chair in a motor vehicle.

WARNING! Allow as much clearance as possible around the power chair occupant to reduce the possibility of contact with vehicle components and other passengers in the event of a crash.

WARNING! Ensure all vehicle components that are in close proximity to the power chair occupant are removed or covered with dense padding.
