If this is not possible (e.g. when the rear wheels are taken off for transportation in a car), firmly
grasp the frame on the front and rear. Do not use the footrests or the wheels to grasp the
wheelchair.

WARNING
Do NOT use your wheelchair as seat in a vehicle, see the symbol.
Never use the same safety belt for passenger and wheelchair.
1. Fold the wheelchair to its most compact size according to the instructions in § 2.5.
2. Store the wheelchair and its wheels in the luggage compartment or behind the passenger seat.
If luggage and passenger compartments are NOT separated or enclosed, fasten the
wheelchair frame securely to the vehicle.
