SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES

DO NOT make sharp turns in the forward or reverse direction at excessive speed. Failure to observe this warning can cause the wheelchair to tip over and may result in injury to users, bystanders and/or damage to product.

DO determine and establish your particular safety limits by practicing bending, reaching and transferring activities in the presence of a qualified healthcare professional before attempting active use of the wheelchair.

DO NOT attempt to reach objects if you have to move forward in the seat.

DO NOT attempt to reach objects if you have to pick them up from the floor by reaching down between your knees.

DO NOT lean over the top of the back upholstery to reach objects behind you, as this may cause the wheelchair to tip over.

ALWAYS keep hands and fingers clear of moving parts to avoid injury.

DO NOT store items under seat ‐ interference with seat latch may result.

DO NOT use an escalator to move a wheelchair between floors. Serious bodily injury may occur.

DO NOT engage or disengage the motor release levers until the power is in the Off position.

DO NOT attempt to stop a moving wheelchair with wheel locks. Wheel locks are not brakes.

DO NOT operate on roads, streets or highways.

DO NOT climb, go up or down ramps or traverse slopes greater than 9°. NEVER leave an unoccupied wheelchair on an incline.

Invacare strongly recommends proceeding down ramps or slopes at half speed or slower and to avoid hard braking or sudden stops.

DO NOT leave elevating legrests in the fully extended position when proceeding down ramps or slopes.

DO NOT attempt to move up or down an incline with a water, ice or oil film.

DO NOT attempt to drive over curbs or obstacles. Doing so may cause your wheelchair to turn over and cause bodily harm or damage to the wheelchair.

DO NOT leave the power button in the On position when entering or exiting your wheelchair.

DO NOT attempt to lift the wheelchair by any removable (detachable) parts. Lifting by means of any removable (detachable) parts of the wheelchair may result in injury to the user or damage to the wheelchair.

DO NOT stand on the frame of the wheelchair.

DO NOT stand on the footplates/footboard. When getting in or out of the wheelchair, make sure that the footboard or footplates are in the upward position or swing the footrests towards the outside of the wheelchair.
