V. COMFORT ADJUSTMENTS
Positioning Belt
Your power chair may be equipped with a positioning belt
that can be adjusted for operator comfort. See fi gure 17.
The positioning belt is designed to support the operator
so that he/she does not slide down or forward in the seat.
The positioning belt is not designed for use as a restraining
device.
WARNING! The positioning belt is not
designed for use as a seat belt in a motor
vehicle. Nor is your power chair suitable
for use as a seat in any vehicle. Anyone
traveling in a vehicle should be properly
belted into seats approved by the vehicle
manufacturer.
WARNING! The positioning belt should
be secured at all times. Never allow the
positioning belt to hang or drag on the fl oor
as it may become entangled.

1. Once seated, insert the metal tab on one side of the belt into the plastic housing on the opposite side until you
