8.17 USING A PARATRANSIT SERVICE
WARNING
To reduce risk of injuries, Motion Composites recommend
that wheelchair users should not be transported in any kind
of vehicles while sitting in a wheelchair.
Motion Composites recognizes that the safest transportation option
for a person in a wheelchair is to transfer the person in the vehicle
seat and to use the motor vehicle restraint system. Motion Compos-
ites cannot, and does not, recommend any wheelchair transporting
systems.
The standard wheelchair positioning belt should never be used as a
safety seat belt when sitting in a paratransit vehicle.
Transit regulation may vary in different legislation, states, provinces
and countries. Only use a transit tie-down system that is approved
in your legislation.
To avoid risk of injuries, remove all objects or accessories from the
wheelchair and store them securely in the paratransit vehicle.
ATTENTION
Identify whether your chair has been manufactured with the
Transit Option installed.
If your chair is NOT equipped with the Transit Option :
1. NEVER let anyone sit in this chair while in a moving vehicle.
a. ALWAYS move the user to an approved vehicle seat.
b. ALWAYS secure the user with proper motor vehicle restraints.
2. In an accident or sudden stop the user may be thrown from the
chair. Wheelchair positioning belts will not prevent this, and
further injury may result from the belts or straps.
3. NEVER transport this wheelchair in the front seat of a vehicle.
It may shift and interfere with the driver.
4. ALWAYS secure this chair so that it cannot roll or shift.
5. Do not use any chair that has been involved in a motor vehicle
accident.
If you fail to heed these warnings, damage to your chair, a fall,
tip-over or loss of control may occur and cause severe injury to
yourself or to others.
NOTE
If the wheelchair is equipped with Motion Composites WC-19
Transit Tie-Downs, you must read the Transit Tie-Downs user
guide at the end of this manual.
