Intended Purpose
Intended Use / Application Areas
The RECARO Sport HERO Reha rehab car seat is a class 1 medical device.
It is designed to safely transport the physically disabled and to ensure children are sitting securely in vehicles. The seat
is always fastened using the vehicle’s own three-point seat belt. The five-point positioning harness in the rehab car seat
helps to position and support the child in an upright sitting position. In addition, the rehab car seat has an integrated
seat tilt.
The rehab car seat provides additional support to help the passenger sit securely, stabilises head control, provides
secure seating for the hip area, and a footrest. In addition, the product has a wide range of accessories for customised
adjustments.
Any use that goes above and beyond this does not comply with the intended use.
Indication / Patient Target Group / Intended Users
The rehab car seat is for children with structural and / or functional limitations or poor head and torso posture. It pro-
vides a stable, physiological position if a standard child car seat does not securely support the child while seated in the
vehicle.
Risks Associated with Use and Contraindications
If used properly, risks can be eliminated during use. There are no known contraindications.
