A. SOLID SEAT BACK
Do not use the Solid Seat back to push or lift the wheelchair. Improper use
may cause the back to unexpectedly detach from the wheelchair.
B. DRIVING
You should drive your chair with the tilt at the minimum angle. However, if nec-
essary the chair can be driven with the tilt at an angle of no greater than 15°.
C. TILTING
To prevent damage and personal injury, avoid tilting near objects such as
walls, tables or chairs.
To avoid injury, ensure other people, especially children, are clear of the system.
If using a swing-away abductor, be sure not to tilt with the abductor swung
away. Otherwise, the abductor may collide with the tilt actuator when return-
ing the untilted position.
D. CHANGES & ADJUSTMENTS
Never use non-Quickie parts or make changes to your chair unless authorized
by Sunrise. (Doing so will void the warranty and may create a safety hazard.)
1. If you modify or adjust this chair it may increase the risk of fall or tip-over.
2. Modifications unauthorized by Sunrise constitutes remanufacturing of the
wheelchair. This voids the warranty. The rider then assumes all future liability
for the wheelchair.
