7 Transport Ready Option (TRRO)

￿ WARNING

This section applies only to wheelchairs equipped with TRRO (Transport Ready Option).

Contact Invacare Corporation (800-333-6900) with any questions about using this wheelchair for seating in a motor vehicle.

When feasible, wheelchair occupants should transfer into the vehicle seat and use the OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) vehicle-installed restraint system.

This wheelchair has been dynamically tested in a forward-facing mode with the specified crash test dummy restrained by BOTH pelvic and upper-torso strap(s) (shoulder straps), and that BOTH pelvic and upper torso strap(s) should be used to reduce the possibility of head and chest impacts with vehicle components.

Use ONLY Wheelchair Tie-down and Occupant Restraint Systems (WTORS) which meet the requirements of the SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) J2249 Recommended Practice during travel in a motor vehicle.

This wheelchair has been tested for seating in a motor vehicle with the factory installed seating system only. This wheelchair MUST be in a forward facing position during travel in a motor vehicle.

This wheelchair is equipped, and has been dynamically tested to rely on WHEELCHAIR-ANCHORED pelvic straps. If desired, VEHICLE-ANCHORED pelvic straps may be used.

IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED THAT BOTH PELVIC AND UPPER-TORSO STRAP(S) BE USED TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY.

To reduce the potential of injury to vehicle occupants, wheelchair-mounted accessories, including but not limited to IV poles, trays, respiratory equipment, backpacks, and other personal items should be removed and secured separately.

Postural supports, positioning devices, and/or strap(s) should NOT be relied on for occupant restraint. These items may be used IN ADDITION TO the wheelchair-anchored or vehicle-anchored straps.
