M. MODIFIED SEAT SYSTEMS
Use of a seat system not approved by Sunrise may alter the center of balance of
this chair. This may cause the chair to tip over.
1. Do not change the seat system of your chair UNLESS you consult your authorized sup-
plier first.
2. Use of a non-validated system (wheelchair base and seating), as a seat in a motor
vehicle could result in increased risk of severe injury or death in a vehicular mishap.
• Only a complete system (wheelchair base and seating) can be validated for use as
a seat in a motor vehicle.
• The seating provided may or may not be appropriate for use as a seat in a motor
vehicle in combination with this wheelchair base.
• Before using this system as a seat in a motor vehicle, you should verify that the
seating manufacturer has validated the seating in combination with this wheel-
chair base.
• Before using this system as a seat in a motor vehicle, you should read and comply
with all instructions for use provided by both Sunrise Medical and the seating
manufacturer as well as the instructions for use of any other component or acces-
sory manufacturer.
If you fail to heed these warnings damage to your chair, a fall, tip-over or loss of control may occur
and cause severe injury to the rider or others.
N. TRANSIT OPTION
1. Use only Wheelchair Tiedown and Occupant Restraint Systems (WTORS) which meet
the requirements of SAE J2249 Recommended Practice - Wheelchair Tiedown and
Occupant Restraint Systems For Use in Motor Vehicles. Do not use WTORS designed to
rely on the wheelchair structure to transfer occupant restraint loads to the vehicle.
2. The wheelchair has been dynamically tested in a forward-facing mode for a 30 mph
frontal impact test. The wheelchair must be forward-facing during transport.
3. In order to reduce the potential of injury to vehicle occupants, wheelchair-mounted
accessories, such as trays and respiratory equipment, should be removed and secured
separately.
4. Postural supports and positioning devices should not be relied on for occupant
restraint.
5. Do not alter or substitute wheelchair frame parts, components or seating.
6. Sudden stops or impacts can structurally damage your chair. Chairs involved in such
incidents should be replaced.
If you fail to heed these warnings damage to your chair, a fall, tip-over or loss of control may occur
and cause severe injury to the rider or others.
