TRRO AND TRBKTS WARNINGS

described in this manual.
Battery support brackets MUST be installed at all times. Otherwise, the wheelchair

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.
The seat positioning strap is a positioning belt ONLY. It is not designed for use as a
safety device withstanding high stress loads such as auto or aircraft safety belts. If
signs of wear appear, belt MUST be replaced IMMEDIATELY.
The drive behavior initially experienced by the user may be different from other
wheelchairs previously used. This power wheelchair has Invacare’s SureStep®
technology, a feature that provides the wheelchair with optimum traction and
stability when driving forward over transitions and thresholds of up to 2-3/8 inches
(60mm). The following warnings apply specifically to the SureStep feature:
• DO NOT use on inclines greater than 9°.
• DO NOT use on inclines with wet, slippery, icy or oily surfaces. This may include
certain painted or otherwise treated wood surfaces.
• DO NOT traverse down ramps at high speed. Doing so will reduce traction and
increase stopping distance.
• The end user’s weight can materially affect traction on sloped surfaces. Great
care should be taken when traversing such slopes.
To determine and establish your particular safety limits, practice use of this product
on various sloping surfaces in the presence of a qualified healthcare provider before
attempting active use of this wheelchair. Other general warnings listed within this
document also apply.
Wheelchairs should be examined during maintenance for signs of corrosion (water
exposure, incontinence, etc.). Electrical components damaged by corrosion should
be replaced IMMEDIATELY.
Wheelchairs that are used by incontinent users and/or are frequently exposed to
water may require replacement of electrical components more frequently.
