MANUALS OR INSTRUCTION SHEETS SUPPLIED WITH THIS PRODUCT OR OPTIONAL

ACCESSORIES WARNING

Invacare products are specifically designed and manufactured for use in conjunction with Invacare
accessories. Accessories designed by other manufacturers have not been tested by Invacare and
are not recommended for use with Invacare products.

INSTALLATION WARNING

The procedures in this manual should be performed by a qualified technician.
After any adjustments, repair or service and before use, make sure that all attaching component
parts are secure.
DO NOT install the Invacare Matrx Elite assembly onto back canes with an outside diameter
greater than 1-inch (25 mm) or less than 3/4-inch (19 mm). Otherwise, injury or damage may
occur.
The mounting position of the Invacare Matrx Elite is directly related to the chair's stability. When
the Invacare Matrx Elite is added to a TILT and/or RECLINING chair, it may cause a decrease in
the chair's stability. It may be necessary to reposition the FRONT CASTERS, REAR WHEELS,
BACK ANGLE, TILT-IN-SPACE, RECLINE POSITION and/or SEAT DEPTH before use. Use
extreme caution when using a new seating position.
When a Matrx Elite is added to a TILT and/or RECLINING chair, a RIGIDIZER BAR or
CROSSBAR must be present to stabilize the back canes.
Ensure the Invacare Matrx Elite is properly secured to the wheelchair before using. Otherwise
injury or damage may occur.
WARNING
Skin condition should be checked very frequently after the installation of any new seating system.
Your therapist and physician should be consulted if you have any questions regarding individual
limitations and needs.
Working with your therapist, physician, and equipment supplier is the best way to assure that a
seating choice matches your individual needs.
As the needs of the individual become more complex, the seating evaluation becomes more
important.
