3.8 The wheelchair as a
passenger seat in a car
This wheelchair is crashtested
according to ISO 7176-19 (2008)
with a maximum passenger weight
of 160 kg.
Wheelchairs are not primarily designed
to be used as car seats and cannot
offer the same degree of safety offered
by standard car seats, no matter how
securely they have been tied down in
the vehicle concerned.
Due attention should be paid to the
following points when a transfer from
the wheelchair to a standard car seat
is not possible.
The wheelchair can be used as a
passenger seat in a car or bus by
using a 4-point integrated transport tie-
down system that has been approved
to ISO 10542. standards. Make sure
that this restraint system is suitable to
the total weight of the wheelchair. The
weight of a wheelchair depends on it's
configuration. The specifications give
an overview of several options and
their share in the total weight. Always
weigh the total chair to make sure that
the right restraint system is used.
