USE WITH A SOLID SEAT AND A SOLID BACKREST
Avoid using the cushion on overly stretched seat
upholstery. Stretched upholstery does not provide
adequate support for the cushion and improper
positioning may result. Replace stretched upholstery or
purchase the Jay Adjustable Solid Seat or the Jay Solid
Seat insert that is appropriate for the cushion.
Avoid using overly stretched back rest upholstery.
Stretched back upholstery does not provide adequate
support for the body and improper positioning may result.
Replace stretched back rest upholstery or purchase a
back support product from Sunrise that
is appropriate for you. Contact an authorized supplier for
a free demonstration of these products.
WARNING
• When you install a seat cushion in a wheelchair, this
affects the centre of gravity and could increase the
risk of the wheel¬chair tipping over backwards!
• Always have the anti-tip tubes fitted to the
wheelchair!
For better posture and to give greater relief from back
pain, we recommend the JAY J3 backrest. Your Sunrise
Medical dealer will be pleased to demonstrate these
backrests for you.
SETTING THE LEG POSITION
In order to achieve the lowest seated pressure and
maximise the leg support, lower the footrests, raise the
seat and/or use a longer cushion. The leg wedges in
the cushion base cover stop the legs from gradually
moving apart. You can make the wheelchair sling tighter
or consider using a solid seat insert. If the legs are still
too far apart, consider a JAY J2, Jay Balance or JAY J3
cushion.
XTREME ACTIVE CUSHION ACCESSORY PARTS
Each Xtreme Active can accommodate leg support
wedges (2 lateral thigh supports, 1 medial thigh support).
These supports can be ordered as a kit and fitted
through Velcro®'s on the inner cover.
When positioned on the inner cover, the supports
enhance the top surface contour of the cushion providing
lateral thigh support without compromising softness.
This increases the contact with the legs to help control
abduction (separation of legs) and adduction (if medial
thigh support is used).
