SAFETY SUMMARY

To ensure the safe installation of the On Chair Mounting Kit for the ContourU seating system, these instructions must be followed:

GENERAL WARNINGS

DO NOT install this equipment without first reading and understanding this instruction sheet. If you are unable to understand the Warnings, Cautions and Instructions, contact a healthcare professional, dealer or technical personnel if applicable before attempting to install this equipment - otherwise, injury or dam- age may occur.

Unless otherwise noted, installation and adjustments should be made while the wheelchair is unoccupied

INSTALLATION WARNINGS

The position of the On Chair Mounting Kit in the different mounting bracket configurations is directly related to the chair's stability. When the On Chair Mounting Kit is installed on a TILT and/or RECLINING wheelchair, the wheelchair's stability may decrease. It may be necessary to reposition the FRONT CASTERS, REAR WHEELS, BACK ANGLE, TILT-IN-SPACE, RECLINE POSI- TION and/or SEAT DEPTH before use. Refer to appropreate wheelchair owner’s manual. Use EXTREME caution when using a new seating position.

Before final tightening, ensure that the brackets will not interfere with the opperation of the wheelchair, or be in a position to injure the patient or any attendant.

After ANY adjustments, repair or service and BEFORE use, make sure that all attaching hardware is tightened securely.

USER WARNINGS

Skin condition should be checked frequently after the installation of any new seating system.

Your therapist and physician should be consulted if you have any questions regard- ing individual limitations and needs.

Working with your therapist, physician, and rehabilitation technology supplier is the best way to assure that the ContourU seating system choice matches your individual needs.

As the needs of the individual become more complex, the ContourU seating system evaluation becomes more important.
