III. NOTICE - READ BEFORE USE
A. Your Safety and Stability
Ki Mobility manufactures many different wheelchairs that might meet your needs. You should
consult an Assistive Technology Professional when selecting which model would best meet
your particular requirements and how the wheelchair should be set up and adjusted. Final
selection of the type of wheelchair, options and adjustments rests solely with you and your
medical professional. The options you choose and the set-up and adjustment of the
wheelchair have a direct impact on its stability. Factors to consider that affect your safety and
stability are:
a. Your personal abilities and capabilities including strength, balance and coordination.
b. The types of hazards and obstacles you might encounter during your day.
c. The specific dimensions, options and set up. In particular, the seat height, seat depth,
seat angle, back angle, size and position of the rear wheels and size and position of the
front casters. Any change to any of these items will change the stability of your
wheelchair. You should only make changes after consulting with a qualified
professional.

IV. WARNINGS
A. Signal Words
Within this manual you will find what are referred to as “Signal” words. These words are used
to identify and convey the severity of varying hazards. Before using this chair you, and each
person who may assist you, should read this entire manual. Please note the Signal word and
consider any warnings, cautions or dangers. Make sure to follow all instructions and use your
chair safely. The Signal word refers to a hazard or unsafe practice that may cause severe injury
or death to you or to other persons. The “Warnings” are in three main categories, as follows:
DANGER – Danger indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will
result in serious injury or death.
WARNING – Warning indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could
result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION – Caution indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could re-
sult in injury or damage to your wheelchair.
These signal words will be placed throughout the manual, where appropriate to highlight the
hazardous situation. Refer to the following list for hazardous situations that will apply to the
general use of this wheelchair.

IV. WARNINGS
B. General Warnings
WARNING: Do not exceed the weight limit of 165 pounds for the Little Wave Clik. This is the
combined weight of user and all items carried. Exceeding the weight limit can cause damage
to your chair or increase the likelihood of a fall or tip back resulting in severe injury or death to
the user or others.
DANGER: Do not use this chair for weight training. The movement of the additional weight
will alter the center of gravity of the wheelchair increasing the likelihood of a tip-over which
can cause damage to your chair or cause severe injury or death to the user or others.
WARNING: If your wheelchair is equipped with inflatable tires, make sure the tires have
been inflated to the correct tire pressure as indicated on the side wall of the tire. Your
wheelchair provider can determine if you have inflatable tires. Using your wheelchair without
properly inflated tires can have an effect on the stability of the wheelchair causing it to tip over
resulting in death or injury to the user or others.
DANGER: Do not attempt to push your wheelchair up or down ramps or traverse across a
slope of greater than 9 degrees. This is dangerous and increases the likelihood of a fall or tip
back resulting in severe injury or death to the user or others.
WARNING: Do not attempt to push your wheelchair up an incline that is slick or coated
with ice, oil or water. This can cause an unstable situation resulting in death or injury to the
user or others.
DANGER: Do not lean over the side or back of the wheelchair to extend your reach. This
may cause you to fall out of the wheelchair or the wheelchair to tip over resulting in injury or
death.

7
IV. WARNINGS
B. General Warnings
DANGER: Do not attempt to the lift the wheelchair by holding on to removable parts such
as the arms or footrests. Only lift the wheelchair by holding on to the frame. This may cause a
fall or loss of control and result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION: Do not overtighten the bolts and hardware that attaches various components to-
gether on the frame. This could cause serious damage and affect the safety and durability of
the wheelchair.
C. Positioning Belts
Positioning belts are designed to assist with proper positioning within the wheelchair. They are
not designed as seat belts. Use positioning belts ONLY to help support the user’s posture.
Misuse of positioning belts may cause severe injury to or death of the user.
• Ensure the user does not slide underneath the positioning belt in the wheelchair seat. If
this occurs, the user’s breathing may be hampered causing death or serious injury.
• The positioning belt should have a snug fit; tight enough to hold their position, but not
so tight as to restrict breathing. You should be able to slide your hand between the
positioning belt and the user.
•NEVER Use Positioning Belts:
a. As a restraint. A restraint requires a doctor’s order.
b. On a user who is unconscious.
c. As an occupant restraint in a motor vehicle. A positioning belt is not designed to
replace a seat belt that is attached to the frame of a vehicle, which would be required
of an effective seat belt. During a sudden stop, with the force of the stop, the user
would be thrown forward. Wheelchair seat belts will not prevent this, and further
injury may result from the belts or straps.
DANGER: Failure to comply with the instruction above could result in serious injury or death.

8
IV. WARNINGS
D. Riding Your Wheelchair
Your chair is designed for use on solid, flat surfaces such as concrete, asphalt and flooring.
Use caution if you push your wheelchair on a wet or slick surface.
WARNING: Do not push your chair in sand, loose soil or over rough terrain. This may cause
a loss of stability and result in a fall or loss of control and cause serious injury or death.
DANGER: In most states, wheelchairs are not legal for use on public roads. If you find you
must push on a public road, be alert to the danger of motor vehicles. Use of a wheelchair on a
public road can cause serious injury or death.
WARNING: Obstacles and road hazards (such as potholes and broken pavement) can
damage your chair and may cause a fall, tip-over or loss of control. Failure to comply with
this instruction could result in serious injury or death.
DANGER: Do not ride your wheelchair on an escalator. Use of a wheelchair on an escalator
can cause serious injury or death.
To minimize these risks:
1) Keep a lookout for danger-scan the area well ahead of your chair as you ride.
2) Make sure the floor areas where you live and work are level and free of obstacles.
3) Remove or cover threshold strips between rooms.
4) Install a ramp at entry or exit doors. Make sure there is not a drop off at the bottom
of the ramp.
5) To Help Correct Your Center of Balance:
a. Lean your upper body FORWARD slightly as you go UP over an obstacle.
b. Press your upper body BACKWARD as you go DOWN from a higher to a
lower level.
6) If your chair has anti-tip tubes, lock them in place before you go UP over an obsta-
cle.
7) Keep both of your hands on the handrims as you go over an obstacle.
8) Never push or pull on an object (such as furniture or a doorjamb) to propel your
chair.
9) Do not operate your wheelchair on roads, streets or highways.
10) Do not attempt to push over obstacles without assistance.

IV. WARNINGS
E. Power Drives
Ki Mobility does not recommend the installation of power drive systems on any Little Wave
Clik wheelchair.
Little Wave Clik wheelchairs have not been designed or tested as power wheelchairs. If you
add a power drive system to a Little Wave Clik wheelchair, be sure the manufacturer of the
power drive system has validated and approved the combination of the power drive system
and Little Wave Clik wheelchair as safe and effective.
WARNING: Use of a power drive system that has not been properly validated could result
in serious injury or death.
F. Ascending Stairs
• Have at least two people, who have sufficient strength and skill to handle the weight of
the user and wheelchair, assist when trying to go up a set of stairs in this wheelchair.
• Move the wheelchair and user backwards up the stairs.
• Position one person behind the user, one person in front. The person in front must hold
onto a non-removable part of the wheelchair.
• The rear attendant tilts the chair back and they both lift together. Take one step at a
time.
• This may require the anti-tips be flipped up or removed. Make sure the anti-tips are
reattached or flipped back down before using the wheelchair.
DANGER: Failure to comply with the instructions above could result in serious injury or death.
G. Descending Stairs
• When descending a set of stairs the user should be facing forward.
• A person behind the user, who has sufficient strength and skill to handle the weight of
the user and the wheelchair, should tilt the chair backward and let the chair down the
stairs one step at a time on the rear wheels.
• This may require that anti-tips be flipped up or removed. Make sure the anti-tips are
reattached or flipped back down before using the wheelchair.
DANGER: Failure to comply with the instructions above could result in serious injury or death.

10
IV. WARNINGS
H. Transfers
A transfer requires good balance and stability. You should receive training from your therapist
before attempting to do a transfer on your own.
• Before transferring out of your wheelchair every caution should be taken to reduce the
gap between the two surfaces.
• Engage the wheel locks to lock the rear wheels.
• Rotate the casters forward to increase the wheelbase of the wheelchair.
• Remove or swing away the footrests.
• Have someone assist you unless you are well experienced in transfers.
It is dangerous to transfer on your own. It requires good balance and agility. Be aware there is
a point during every transfer when the wheelchair seat is not below you.
WARNING: Failure to comply with the instructions above may cause a fall or loss of
control, which may result in serious injury or death.
I. Your Wheelchair and the Environment
• Your wheelchair is made of many different materials including metal and fabric.
Exposure to water or excessive moisture may cause the metal in the wheelchair to rust
or corrode and the fabric to tear. Dry your chair as soon as possible if exposed to water.
•DO NOT USE YOUR WHEELCHAIR IN A SHOWER, POOL OR BODY OF WATER. This
will cause your wheelchair to rust or corrode and eventually fail.
• Do not operate your wheelchair in sand. Sand can get into the wheel bearings and
moving parts. This will cause damage and eventually will cause the wheelchair to fail.
• Make sure any ramp, slope or curb cut you may attempt to ride on is compliant with
ADA guidelines. Riding across, up or down any slope that is too great may cause a loss
of stability.
ADA Guidelines and more information about accessible design are available at:
http://www.ada.gov/
WARNING: Failure to comply with the instructions above may cause a fall or loss of
control, which may result in serious injury or death.

accessories or components not provided by Ki Mobility.
DANGER: Failure to comply to these instructions may cause the wheelchair to fail and result
in serious injury or death.
K. Wheelchair Stability
To ensure proper stability of your wheelchair, you must make sure the center of gravity and the
wheelchairs base of support is correct for your balance and abilities. Many factors can affect
these two elements:
Generally, the most important factor is the position of the rear wheels for rearward stability.
There are other actions than can have an adverse effect on your stability. You should consult
with your wheelchair provider and clinicians familiar with your needs and capabilities in
determining how this affects your use.
WARNING: Moving the rear wheels forward increases the likelihood of the wheelchair
tipping backwards. Make small adjustments and proceed slowly until you learn the new
balance point of your wheelchair. Failure to comply with the instruction above could result in
serious injury or death.
• Seat height •Size and position of rear wheels
• Size and position of front casters
• Any seating system components
•Seatdepth
•Backangle

IV. WARNINGS
K. Wheelchair Stability
WARNING: The farther rearward you place the front casters the greater the likelihood of
the wheelchair tipping forwards. If possible, have your casters mounted forward and
whenever doing a static activity which involves shifting your weight, rotate the casters forward
to increase your wheel base. Failure to comply with this instruction above could result in
serious injury or death.
WARNING: Always have a qualified technician set up your wheelchair with the accessories
you plan to use daily.
Changes to how you sit or changes in your weight require your chair to be readjusted by a
qualified technician. Always use anti-tips while you acclimate to any changes in your chair set
up. Failure to comply with the instruction above could result in serious injury or death.
WARNING: Changes to your Center of Gravity during your daily activities may occur many
times a day, changing and affecting the stability of your wheelchair. You should be aware of
these activities and take precautions to minimize the risk of a fall. Failure to comply with
the instruction above could result in serious injury or death.
WARNING: Dressing in your wheelchair produces movements and momentary positions that
can reduce stability. Ensure that your anti-tips are in place and rotate your casters forward.
Failure to comply with the instruction above could result in serious injury or death.
WARNING: Be very careful when reaching for objects if this movement requires you to shift
in your seat. This changes your center of gravity. Ensure that your anti-tips are in place.
Failure to comply with the instruction above could result in serious injury or death.
WARNING: Pushing up an incline shifts your center of gravity rearward and can reduce
stability. Ensure your anti-tips are in place. Failure to comply with the instruction above
could result in serious injury or death.

IV. WARNINGS
K. Wheelchair Stability
WARNING: If attempting a wheelie to get over a curb or obstacle, ensure your anti-tips are in
place and lean forward. Do not attempt a wheelie unless you have been trained and always
have an attendant behind you to provide assistance if needed. Failure to comply with the
instruction above could result in serious injury or death.
WARNING: Placing items on the back or front of your wheelchair, such as a backpack or
briefcase, alters the balance and center of gravity of the wheelchair. Since the weight of
these items can vary greatly at each use do not assume you are accustomed to the balance
point. Failure to comply with the instruction above could result in serious injury or death.
BE AWARE THAT CARRYING HEAVY OBJECTS ON YOUR WHEELCHAIR CAN HAVE AN
ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE BALANCE WHICH MAY CAUSE A TIP-OVER WHICH MAY
RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO THE USER.
