10.17 Using a paratransit
service
WARNING:
Motion Composites recommend that wheelchair users
should not be transported in any kind of vehicles while
sitting in a wheelchair. Motion Composites recognise
that the safest transit option for a wheelchair user is
to transfer into an appropriate seat in the vehicle and
use the seat belts made available by the auto industry.
Motion Composites cannot, and does not, recommend
any wheelchair transporting systems.
The standard wheelchair seatbelt should never be used as a
safety seat belt when sitting in a paratransit vehicle.
Only Use approved transit tie-down systems if equipped
with WC-19 approved attachment directly mounted on the
wheelchair frame. To avoid risk of injuries, remove all objects or
accessories from the wheelchair and store them securely in the
paratransit vehicle.
WARNING:
If the Helio A7 is equipped with Motion Composites
WC-19 Transit Tie-Downs and WTORS securement
system anchors, you must read the Transit Tie-Downs
user guide at the end of this manual.
