Note!
This wheelchair is crashtested according to
ISO 7176-19 (2008) considering a maximum
passenger weight of 160 kg.
Wheelchairs are not primarily designed to be
used as car seats and cannot offer the same
degree of safety offered by standard car seats,

down in the vehicle concerned.
Due attention should be paid to the following
points when a transfer from the wheelchair to a
standard car seat is not possible.
The wheelchair can be used as a passenger
seat in a car or bus by using a 4-point
integrated transport tie-down system that has
been approved to ISO 10542 standards. Make
sure that this restraint system is suitable to
the total weight of the wheelchair. The weight
of a wheelchair depends on it's configuration.
The specifications give an overview of several
options and their share in the total weight.
Always weigh the total chair to make sure that
the right restraint system is used.
