All products approved by Bischoff & Bischoff as seats in vehicles are
tested according to ISO 7176-19. The tests according to ISO 7176-19

The restraint systems of AMF-Bruns provide the force nodes (Fig. A)
for fixing the products in the VMP. The products may only be attached
to these force node points for restraint in the VMP. If possible, use a
permanently installed car seat and its belt system. Stow the wheelchair
in the load compartment. The person responsible for the transport
