• Improper usage of the product can cause injury to the occupant or operator. Operate the product only as described in
this manual.

armrest to avoid the risk of pinching.
• Do not hang items on the push handles, chart holder, optional oxygen bottle holder, or flip-up armrests to avoid
instability.

• Do not sit, stand, or lean on the flip-up armrests, footrest, leg rest, or seat back to avoid instability.
• Do not use the flip-up armrests, chart holder, optional oxygen bottle holder, or the optional IV pole as a push or pull
device.

• Always avoid the pinch point between the flip-up armrest, seat back, and seat when repositioning the flip-up armrest.
The flip-up armrest should remain down (in the forward position) when the chair is occupied and should only be in the
stowed position to assist with getting in the product or getting out of the product.
• Do not put items weighing more than 6 lb (2.72 kg) in the chart holder.
