•  Wheelchair users, their carers and family are advised to check vehicle 

specifications to ensure that sufficient floor space is available to accommodate 
the wheelchair and tie-down system. These distances are based upon the desire 
to maintain clear zones for potential head excursions of occupants provided with 
both upper and lower torso restraints. 

•  Users of heavy powered wheelchairs are also advised to check vehicle carrying 

capacity. If in doubt consult the vehicle supplier for further details. 

•  Any airbag, as fitted to the vehicle, shall be used only as a supplementary 

occupant restraint if designed to be used in combination with the Solar Quattro 
and an appropriate occupant restraint. 

•  Installers of this wheelchair & occupant restraint should take note of any vehicle 

airbag position when planning the installation. Airbags can cause serious injury if 
a wheelchair-seated occupant is seated too close to an airbag position. If in doubt 
contact the vehicle manufacturer or your National Automotive Regulatory Body 
for advice.
