ACCESSORIES WARNING

Invacare products are specifically designed and manufactured for use in conjunction with Invacare accessories. Accessories designed by other manufacturers have not been tested by Invacare and are not recommended for use with Invacare products.

INSTALLATION WARNING

After any adjustments, repair or service and before use, make sure that all attaching component parts are secure.

Ensure the seat cushion is properly secured to the wheelchair before using. Otherwise injury or damage may occur.

Installing a cushion on a wheelchair may affect the center of gravity of the wheelchair and may cause the wheelchair to become unstable, potentially resulting in injury.

WARNING

Skin condition should be checked very frequently after the installation of any new seating system. Your therapist and physician should be consulted if you have any questions regarding individual limitations and needs.

Working with your therapist, physician, and equipment supplier is the best way to assure that a seating choice matches your individual needs.

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

The cushion is designed to be used only at room temperature. If it is left at lower temperatures, always allow it to warm to room temperature before using. Sitting on extremely cold or hot surfaces can cause skin damage.

Avoid sharp objects or exposure to excessive heat or open flame.
