For your safety

Take note of the following safety hints:
l
Follow the instructions for using your comfort chair.
l
To prevent injury of the hands and damage to the comfort chair, make sure that no
objects and or body parts are caught between the adjustment systems (inclination of
legrest, backrest, ...).
l
Regularly check that the wheel immobilizers function correctly (only for Normandie
2F + wheels).
l
The parking brakes should be applied before getting into and out the comfort chair.
(only for Normandie 2F + wheels).
l
If you want to pick up something (lying in front of, on the side, or to the rear of the
comfort chair), you should not lean too far out to avoid tipping over.
l
When moving through doors, arches, etc. ensure that there is enough room at the
sides so there is no damage to the comfort chair.
l
When inclining the comfort chair make sure there is sufficient room around and
above it. Otherwise the adjustment movements could lead damage or injury.
l
Only use your comfort chair according to regulations. For example, avoid
uncontrolled rolling against obstacles (steps, curbs, doorframes, etc) or dropping
down from ledges. The manufacturer cannot assume liability for damage caused by
overloading, collision or other improper use.
l
Never cross steps, ledges or other obstacles with a patient seated on the comfort
chair. If alternatives like ramps or lifts are available, use them.
l
When transporting the comfort chair, never pick it up by grasping movable parts
(e.g. legrest) or when the comfort chair is inclined.
l
Leave the comfort chair in the not inclined position when not using the comfort chair.
l
Do not sit on the legrest or armrests.
l
Do not lean on the leg or backrest - risk of tipping over the comfort chair.
l
Be careful when using possible causes of fire such as cigarettes since they may set
the seat and back covers alight.
l
Never exceed the maximum load (130 kg).
l
Use the comfort chair on level surfaces, with all 4 casters / legs contacting the
ground.
l
Use only Vermeiren approved accessories, spare parts or gas springs.
l
Never open the gas compression springs: the inside pressure is very high and may
result in injury!

If one of the gas compression springs is damaged, stop using the comfort chair
immediately. Contact you specialist dealer and have the necessary repairs done
without delay.
