Informational Supplement 3

Introduction

MANDATORY! The following information pertains

to power chairs equipped with a factory-installed

Pride Transit Securement Package. Read this

information in its entirety before use in a motor

vehicle. If you have any questions about this

information or about using your power chair as a

seat in a motor vehicle, contact your authorised

Pride Dealer/Quantum Rehab Dealer.

The Pride Transit Securement Package conforms with the standard of ISO

7176-19 for the purpose of enabling power chairs to be secured in certain

types of motor vehicles. The Transit Securement Package, including manu-

facturer-installed front and rear securement brackets, has been crash tested

in accordance with ISO 7176-19, Frontal Impact Test, with a 76.2 kg (168

lbs.) surrogate occupant corresponding to a user weight range of

52.16–95.25 kg (115–210 lbs.).

Notwithstanding this standard and testing conformance, many government

transportation agencies, at the time of publication, have not approved any

securement system of an occupied power chair in a motor vehicle. There-

fore, it is the position of Pride Mobility Products that the Transit Securement

Package should only be utilised to secure an occupied power chair being

transported in a motor vehicle at the user’s discretion and in accordance

with ISO 7176-19 standards, which are intended to increase safety, but do

not suggest that compliance with the standards will necessarily prevent seri-

ous injury or death of a secured power chair occupant during motor vehicle

transport.

In accordance with ISO 7176-19 standards, the power chair user should

transfer into the vehicle seat and use the vehicle-installed belt restraint sys-

tem if and whenever feasible. The Transit Securement Package is only avail-

able when factory-installed on new power chairs, and cannot be retrofitted

on existing power chairs or serviced in the field.

PROHIBITED! Do not modify your power chair in any

way not authorised by Pride. Do not make alterations

or substitutions to power chair structural parts or

frame components without consulting Pride.
