•
Wheelchair users, their carers and family are advised to check vehicle
specifications to ensure that sufficient floor space is available to
accommodate the wheelchair and tie-down system. These distances
are based upon the desire to maintain clear zones for potential head
excursions of occupants provided with both upper and lower torso
restraints.
•
Users of heavy powered wheelchairs are also advised to check vehicle
carrying capacity. If in doubt consult the vehicle supplier for further
details.
•
Any airbag, as fitted to the vehicle, shall be used only as a
supplementary occupant restraint if designed to be used in
combination with the wheelchair tie-down.
•
Installers of these restraints should take note of any vehicle airbag
position when planning the installation. Airbags can cause serious
injury if a wheelchair-seated occupant is seated too close to an airbag
position. If in doubt contact the vehicle manufacturer or your National
Automotive Regulatory Body for advice.
