Attachment points/methods for transport in motor vehicles
When using the wheelchair as a seat in a motor vehicle, only the positions marked
with the symbol for the attachment point should be used. These can usually be found
at the back left and right
(1)
and at the front left and right.
(2)
The wheelchair must be fixed with a
4-point wheelchair restraint system anchored
to the vehicle in accordance with ISO 10542.
These may be carabiner hooks, S-shaped
hooks or plug-in fasteners. The wheelchair
restraint system must be securely fastened
and used in accordance with the user manual
of the manufacturer.
(3A+B)
The user must be additionally secured
with a fixed lap belt
(4C)
approved for trans-
port in accordance with ISO 10542 and a
vehicle-anchored shoulder belt
(4D)
so that
the risk of head and upper body injuries can
be minimised to the greatest extent possible.
The seat belts must not be twisted during use, nor must they be guided over any structur-
al components, which would keep them away from the body. They have to be tight and firm
without impairing user comfort. The lap belt buckle must be positioned between the pelvic
bones (if possible in the middle). The buckle tongues on the lap belt for fastening the shoul-
der belt should be located on the outside of the pelvis where possible.
All belts used for transport must be regularly inspected for damage.
A headrest suitable for transport must be used.
The wheelchair must only be used as a forward facing seat in motor vehicles in accordance
with ISO 7176-19. No transport with the wheelchair facing sideways!
Immediately contact your authorised dealer after a collision to check the carriage, frame
and brakes and have any damage repaired by a specialist without delay.
