Positioning Belt

Your power chair may be equipped with a positioning belt that can be adjusted for operator comfort. See figure

16.The positioning belt is designed to support the operator so that he/she does not slide down or forward in the seat. The positioning belt is not designed for use as a restraining device.

WARNING! The positioning belt is not designed for use as a seat belt in a motor vehicle unless your power chair is equipped and properly secured with a manufacturer-installed transit securement package. Nor is your power chair suitable for use as a seat in any vehicle. Anyone traveling in a vehicle should be properly belted into seats approved by the vehicle manufacturer.

NOTE: If your power chair is equipped with an optional seating system, please refer to the user manual provided with the seat for instruction on positioning belt installation or contact your Quantum Rehab Provider.

To adjust the positioning belt:

1.Once seated, insert the metal tab on one side of the belt into the plastic housing on the opposite side until you hear a click.

2.Pull the excess strap attached to the metal tab until it is secure, but not so tight as to cause discomfort.

To release the positioning belt:

1. Press the push button mechanism on the plastic housing.

MANDATORY! Make sure the positioning belt is properly secured to the power chair and is adjusted for operator comfort before each use.

MANDATORY! Inspect the positioning belt for loose or damaged parts before each use of the power chair. If you discover a problem, contact your Quantum Rehab Provider for maintenance and repair.
