Q UI C KIE PU LS E
5. NEVER use positioning belts
a. As a patient restraint. A restraint requires a doctor's order.
b. On a rider who is comatose or agitated.
c. As a motor vehicle restraint. In an accident or sudden
stop the rider may be thrown from the chair. Wheelchair
seat belts will not prevent this, and further injury may
result from the belts or straps.
If you fail to heed these warnings, damage to your chair, a fall, tip-
over or loss of control may occur and cause severe injury to the
rider or others.
J. PUSH HANDLES
1. Push handles provide secure points for an attendant to propel
and control the chair. This helps to prevent a fall or tip-over.
2. Check to make sure push handle grips will not rotate or slip off.
K. SEATING SYSTEMS
1. Use of a seating system not approved by Sunrise may alter
the center of balance of this chair. This may cause a fall or
tip-over.
2. Never change the seating system of your chair unless you
consult your supplier first.
3. Never raise your seating system to a height of more than
22" (measuring from the front of the seat pan to the floor)
with all actuators in their home position.
L. UPHOLSTERY FABRIC
1. Replace worn or torn fabric of the seat sling and seat back
as soon as you can. If you fail to do so, the seat may fail and
cause you to fall. Worn fabrics may increase the potential for
a fire hazard.
2. Sling fabric will deteriorate with age and use. Look for fray-
ing, thin spots, or stretching of fabric at rivet holes. Replace
fabric as required.
3. Be aware that washing may reduce flame retardation qualities
of the fabric.
M. SUSPENSION
No component of the chair, was made with natural rubber latex,
Including the Suspension system.
N. WIRING
Never pull on cables directly. This can result in wires breaking
inside the connector or harness. To remove a plug or connector,
always grasp the plug or connector itself. (See section XI (H)for
wiring diagram).
O. ASSIGNABLE CONTROLS
It is possible to assign a function to an input control (buttons,
jacks) of your wheelchair . If controls have been assigned to per-
form a dual or alternate function ensure you know what each con-
trol operates. Please contact your Authorize Dealer or the Quickie
Technical Service Department if you do not receive this informa-
tion. Failure to do so may result in damage and/or injury.

1. Operation
• While driving this wheelchair in the reclined, elevated, or
tilted position use caution.
• Do Not attempt to operate any power seating option
while positioned on an incline.
• Do Not attempt to operate any power seating option
while this wheelchair is in motion.
• Do not attempt to operate the lift or tilt power seating
options around children.
• Through programming it is possible to reverse the direction
of all powered seating functions, ensure you know which
direction your seat is going to move before operating.
2. Reduced Speed Driving (Creep)
This power chair is designed to automatically reduce the maximum
driving speed to a creep mode when certain power seating limits
are reached.
3. Pinch points
Pinch points may occur when operating the powered seating
options on this chair. Ensure all hands and body parts are clear of
all power seating components that may result in pinch points
before operating them.
4. Tilting Power Base with Push Handles
Do not attempt to tilt power wheelchairs by pulling down on the
push handles. Power wheelchairs have heavy bases. As such, attempt-
ing to tilt a power wheelchair to traverse obstacles can damage com-
ponents in the seating system and/or modular actuators.
5. Remain Clear During Power Accessory Operation
Please stay clear of any powered actuator while the component is
in motion. Sunrise power mechanisms move over large ranges of
travel. Users should be aware of their surroundings while compo-
nents are in motion.
6. Maximum User Weight
Do not exceed the weight capacity for your specific chair/seating sys-
tem configuration. Doing so could result in premature failure or injury.
7. Latch Mode
While operating any power seating function in latched mode use
caution. In latch mode, powered seating will not stop until a reverse
command is performed or the end of travel is met.
Q. S.P.O.T.
(Single Power Option Tilt)
POWER ACCESSORY (SC only)
The powered S.P.O.T. accessory for this chair has a maximum user
weight capacity of up to 300 lbs. Never exceed this capacity while
operating the powered actuator.
The powered S.P.O.T. should not be operated for more than three
minutes of continuous use. Doing so may shorten the life of the
powered S.P.O.T.
