The I-Transia may only be used to lift or move a person with disabilities.

The freestanding rail system must not be used for any other purpose than that stated in this user manual. The rail system is not a playground or a swing device.

If the I-Transia fails while in use, stop using the hoist, transfer the patient using a different method and contact an Invacare dealer for repair by a certified technician.
