between the user and the wheelchair seat, air must be added and the process repeated.

ions. The seat cushion needs to be readjusted only when there is a change in clear­
ance during a hand check, or after a puncture in the air insert has been repaired.

INFORMATION
Place the seat cushion in the middle of the seat so that there is sufficient space on all sides
►
for the wheels and frame.
Optimum pressure redistribution is ensured when the leg support of the wheelchair is adjus­
►
ted so that the thigh of the user completely rests on the seat cushion.
Regularly remove dust and dirt particles from the hook-and-loop strap at the bottom so that
►
the seat cushion remains firmly in place.
Correct positioning of the seat cushion in the wheelchair must be maintained for daily use:
• The label that says "REAR" points towards the back support (see fig. 5).
• The flat side points downwards, the contoured side points upwards.
• The hook-and-loop strap on the cover faces the wheelchair's seat bottom. It is used to attach
the seat cushion in the wheelchair.
