• Positioning belts are fitted as positional aids, and are
not suitable as transportation restraints.

secured and adjusted prior to use. Too loose a strap
could cause the user to slip down and risk suffocation
or cause serious injury.

approved Sunrise Medical dealer/agent.
• The positioning belt should only be adjusted by a
professional, or a Sunrise Medical approved dealer/
agent.

to ensure it is adjusted correctly (see step 6) and is
free from any obstruction or adverse wear.

transportation of any person in a vehicle using this
positioning belt as a method of restraint.
