Vermeiren 708D Gebrauchsanweisung Seite 17

Steps to secure the wheelchair user:
1. Remove both armrests.
2. If present, attach the wheelchair's pelvic belt.
3. Attach the occupant restraint belts according to the instructions of the strap-system
manufacturer.
4. Wear the pelvic belt low across the front of the pelvis, so that the angle of the pelvic
belt is within the preferred zone of 30° to 75° to the horizontal, similar to that shown
below.
5. A steeper (greater) angle within the preferred zone is desirable.
6. Adjust the belt tightly according to the instructions of the strap-system
manufacturer, consistent with the user's comfort.
7. Ensure that the restraint belt connects in a straight line to the anchor point in the
vehicle and that no bends in the belt are visible, for instance at the axle of the rear
wheel.
8. Install the armrests, if desired. Make sure that belts are not twisted or held away
from the body by wheelchair components such as armrests or wheels.
