WARNING: This wheelchair does not offer seating or occupant
restraint equivalent to the seat provided in a motor vehicle! To
increase your safety while traveling in a motor vehicle, always
transfer to the vehicle seat and use the restraint provided by
the vehicle manufacturer.
WARNING: Do not tie down or attach anything to the wheels.
This could cause tipping and possibly result in injury or damage
to the wheelchair.
WARNING: The footplates' lowest point should clear the ground
by at least 2
1
/
2
inches, to permit proper clearance of potential
obstruction.
WARNING: Doing a “wheelie” (tilting the wheelchair backward
until it reaches its balance point) is dangerous and could result
in personal injury to the user.
WARNING: Do not stand or step on the footplates while
transferring to or from your wheelchair. This could cause the
wheelchair to tip or may cause personal injury or damage to
your wheelchair.
WARNING: Do not place your hands between seat rail and side
panel.
WARNING: Always engage wheel locks before transferring,
using a wheelchair lift or using an elevator.
WARNING: Ensure that wheelchair is on a stable, level surface
and engage wheel locks before and during transfer.
WARNING: Operate only with anti-tippers in place. Anti-tippers
must be installed in the downward position.
WARNING: Do not lean over the top of the wheelchair back. This
could cause the wheelchair to tip over.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of tipping before leaning or
reaching forward, sit back in the seat and rotate casters fully
toward front of wheelchair.
WARNING: Unauthorized modification or the use of
non-Everest & Jennings replacement parts could change the
structure of the wheelchair, void the warranty, and create a
hazardous condition resulting in serious personal injury.
WARNING: Do not lean on this wheelchair or use it as a
walker—these are practices which could result in loss of
balance and personal injury.
