WARNING!

DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT OR ANY AVAILABLE OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT WITHOUT
FIRST COMPLETELY READING AND UNDERSTANDING THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND
ANY ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIAL SUCH AS OWNER’S MANUALS,
SERVICE MANUALS OR INSTRUCTION SHEETS SUPPLIED WITH THIS PRODUCT OR
OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO UNDERSTAND THE WARNINGS,
CAUTIONS OR INSTRUCTIONS, CONTACT A HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL, DEALER
OR TECHNICAL PERSONNEL BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO USE THIS EQUIPMENT -
OTHERWISE, INJURY OR DAMAGE MAY OCCUR.

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 Mini assembly onto back canes with an
outside diameter greater than 1-inch or less than 3/4-inch. Otherwise, injury
or damage may occur.
The mounting position of the Invacare Matrx Mini is directly related to the
chair's stability. When the Invacare Matrx Mini 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 Mini 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 Mini 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.
