Passenger with a user weight < 22 kg.
When the user being transported is a child, less than 22 kg
mass and the vehicle involved has less than eight (8) seated
passengers it is recommended that they be transferred to an
UNCE Regulation 44 compliant child restraint system (CRS).
This type of r estraint system provides a more effective occupant
restraint system than the conventional 3 point occupant
restraint system and some CRS systems also include additional
postural supports to assist in maintaining the position of the
child when seated.
Parents or care providers may consider the option, in some
circumstances, for their child to remain in their wheelchair
whilst in transport due to the level of posture control and
comfort provided by the set up in the wheelchair.
We would recommend in such circumstances that a risk
assessment be carried out by your healthcare professional and
relevant competent persons.

7.4 Special transport requirements
Using your wheelchair on the train.
Before you travel, please contact the train operator. They
will be able to supply details of any special requirements/
instructions. We advise you to check the following:
•
Is there a suitable and intended “wheelchair” area in the
train for wheelchair users (with adequate turning space to
manoeuvre)?
•
Is there a suitable or designated area on the platform
for wheelchair users (with adequate turning space to
manoeuvre)?
•
Is there suitable boarding access available to allow you to
access the railway carriage and the intended “wheelchair”
area?
•
Is the boarding access suitable for the combined mass of
the wheelchair and the occupant?
•
Make sure the slope of the boarding access is not greater
than the dynamic safe slope. (See Section 10)
•
Any obstacles or thresholds should not exceed the max kerb
climbing capability of your wheelchair. (See Section 10)
Most train operators will provide assistance provided that
arrangements have been made in advance. We suggest you
have you Owner’s Manual ready when planning your journey
and contacted them.
WARNING!
•
While driving on a boat or train, make sure that you use
driving Profile 1, as this is the standard profile where
the GYRO is deactivated. The continuous movement of a
boat or train, disrupts the GYRO system and the driving
characteristics of your wheelchair.
