CAUTION: Wheelchair damage and risk of accident! Collisions can occur between the legrest and the chassis or between the foot plates and the ground in the event of varying adjustment option combinations! This occurs in particular on wheelchairs with lifter and a seat angle adjustment range of -10° to +35°!

•When adjusting seat angle, lifter and legrest please ensure that the legrest does not collide with the wheelchair chassis or the foot plates with the ground.
