Protocols and Procedures

The power chair user should transfer into the vehicle seat and use the vehi-

cle-installed restraint system if and whenever feasible. The power chair

should then be stored and secured in the vehicle.

If it is found necessary at the user’s discretion to secure a power chair to a

vehicle, the vehicle must be equipped with a Wheelchair Tie-down and

Occupant Restraint System (WTORS) that has been installed in accordance

with the tie-down manufacturer’s instructions, and is compliant with ISO

10542 standards, and the power chair must have a transit securement pack-

age conforming to ISO 7176-19 standards. It is essential to use a complete

WTORS to secure the power chair to the vehicle and to provide the power

chair occupant with a properly designed and tested safety restraint system.

A restraint system with both pelvic and upper-torso belts must be used to

protect the power chair occupant and minimise the likelihood of injury

caused by contact with the vehicle during a crash or sudden braking.

WARNING! Only power chairs marked with this

symbol are rated for occupied use.

WARNING! If the total power chair mass is greater

than 125 kg (275 lbs.), then it is recommended that

two additional ISO 10542 compliant rear

securement straps be used to anchor the power

chair during motor vehicle transport.
