INTENDED USE:
WARNING! This product should only be used for
positioning a person in a wheelchair or work chair.
It is NOT intended for use as a transportation safety
device, as a personal restraint device, or in any other
application where its failure could result in injury.
Misuse of this product is unauthorized and unsafe.
WARNING! This pelvic support belt must be worn
tightly fitted across the pelvis or thighs at all times.
Have your seating specialist demonstrate its proper
adjustment and use.
• A loose belt can allow the user to slip down and
create a risk of strangulation.
• Accidental release of this pelvic support belt
can allow the user to slip down or fall from the
wheelchair.
• A user's inability to self-release can be hazardous
if the user slips down or is trapped in the chair in
an emergency.
If the user's physical or cognitive abilities prevent
them from safely operating this belt, a caregiver
must be present at all times during its use. Ensure
that all caregivers know how to correctly tighten and
unfasten the product.
