The VELA Tango is designed as an everyday chair at home. It is intended for
sedentary work and not as a wheelchair. All movement in the VELA Tango have an
impact on the placement of the centre of gravity.
To increase the safety, we recommend:
• Maximum user weight is 275 lbs., however the activity level is a significant factor.
A person with very forceful movements using the chair should contact a sales
consultant from VELA/VELA Distributor before purchase
• Do not stand on the chair
• Do not stand on the footring. It is only intended for getting on and off
• The chair is not intended as a wheelchair
• During transportation, the chair should always be locked
