WARNING (CONTINUED)
When cleaning rear cane or hand grip areas use only a clean towel lightly damp-
ened with cool water. Verify that grips are dry prior to use. Use of soap or am-
monia based cleaning solutions will result in the hand grips sliding off the cane
assembly. Failure to observe this warning may result in injury to the user or
bystanders.
DO NOT sit or transfer into the wheelchair unless it is fully open and the seat
frame rails are fully seated into the side frame H-blocks.
DO NOT TRAVERSE, CLIMB or GO DOWN ramps or slopes greater than 9°.
DO NOT attempt to move up or down an incline with a water, ice or oil
film.
DO NOT operate on roads, streets or highways.
DO NOT attempt to ride over curbs or obstacles. Doing so may cause your
wheelchair to tip over and cause bodily harm to you or damage to the wheel-
chair.
DO NOT attempt to reach objects if you have to move forward in the seat.
DO NOT attempt to reach objects if you have to pick them up from the
floor by reaching down between your knees.
DO NOT lean over the top of the back upholstery. This will change your
center of gravity and may cause you to tip over.

reaching as the wheelchair may tip over.
WHEEL LOCKS ARE NOT BRAKES. DO NOT attempt to stop a moving
wheelchair with the wheel locks.
DO NOT tip the wheelchair without assistance.
DO NOT use an escalator to move a wheelchair between floors. Serious
bodily injury may occur.
Before attempting to transfer in or out of the wheelchair, every precaution

object you are transferring onto. When transferring to and from the wheel-
chair, ALWAYS ENGAGE BOTH WHEEL LOCKS.

Invacare. Otherwise, the warranty is void.

parts. Lifting by means of any removable (detachable) parts of a wheelchair
may result in injury to the user and/or assistant or damage to the wheelchair.
