WARNING
DO NOT attempt to stop a moving wheelchair with wheel locks. Wheel locks are not brakes.
If the wheelchair is equipped with push to lock wheel locks, elevating legrests, and wheel lock extension handles, the wheel lock extension
handles MUST be removed before swinging the elevating legrests to the side, otherwise injury or damage may result. Interference between
the top of the elevating legrest and the wheel lock extension handle causes the wheel lock to disengage.
WARNING
Wheelchair users should NOT be transported in vehicles of any kind while in wheelchairs. As of this date, the Department of
Transportation has not approved any tie-down systems for transportation of a user while in a wheelchair, in a moving vehicle of any type.
It is Invacare’s position that users of wheelchairs should be transferred into appropriate seating in vehicles for transportation and use be
made of the restraints made available by the auto industry. Invacare cannot and does not recommend any wheelchair transportation
systems.

As a manufacturer of wheelchairs, Invacare endeavors to supply a wide variety of wheelchairs to meet many needs of the end user.
However, final selection of the type of wheelchair to be used by an individual rests solely with the user and his/her healthcare professional
capable of making such a selection.
