A. Intended Use
Ki Mobility Manual Wheelchairs are manually operated devices with wheels that are intended for
medical purposes to provide mobility to persons restricted to a sitting position.
B.Your Safety
Any serious adverse events or injuries related to the use of your wheelchair or its
accessories must be reported immediately if the incident directly or indirectly leads to
serious health decline or death of the user or other person. Report any serious events
and/or injuries to Ki Mobility and, if required by local regulation, the competent health
authority where the user and/or other person legally reside.
Do not use this wheelchair without first reading this entire manual. BEFORE riding, you should
be trained in the safe use of this chair by an Assistive Technology Professional (ATP) or other
competent clinical or technical professional. Ki Mobility manufactures many different
wheelchairs that might meet your needs. The recognized best practice for selecting a wheelchair
is to consult with an ATP or other competent technical professional and an experienced clinical
professional such as a physical therapist, occupational therapist or physician. Final selection of
the type of wheelchair, options and adjustments rests solely with you and your technical and
clinical professionals. The options you choose, and the set-up and adjustment of the wheelchair

F. General Warnings and Cautions
WARNING: Limits refer to combined weight in pounds of user and all items carried. Do not
exceed weight limit of chair. Exceeding weight limit may damage your chair or may
increase your risk of falling or tipping over. A tip-over or fall could result in serious injury or
death.
• Do not use chair for weight training. The movement of the additional weight alters
the chair’s center of gravity increasing your risk of tipping over. A tip-over could
result in damage to your chair or in serious injury or death.
• Keep tires inflated to correct tire pressure. Using a chair without properly inflated
tires may affect its stability, increasing your risk of tipping over. A tip-over could
result in damage to your chair or in serious injury or death to you or others. Correct
tire pressure is indicated on the side wall of the tire. Your wheelchair provider can
determine if your tires are inflatable if you are unsure.
• Avoid ramps or slopes inclined more than 9 degrees. Steep slopes increase your
risk of falling or tipping over. A tip-over or fall could result in damage to your chair
or in serious injury or death to you or others. Do not use chair on ramps or slopes
tilted more than 9 degrees (about 2 inches rise/drop per linear-foot): neither
up/down nor across.
• Avoid inclined surfaces slick or coated with ice, oil or water. Slippery inclines could
result in an inability to control the wheelchair on the surface and result in a tip-over
or fall. A tip-over or fall could result in damage to your chair or in serious injury or
death.
• Avoid leaning over the side or back of your wheelchair to extend your reach.
Leaning over chair could change its center of gravity and cause an unstable
situation resulting in a fall or tip-over. A tip-over or fall could result in damage to
your chair or in serious injury or death.
• Do not lift wheelchair by it’s removable parts while occupied. Lifting a wheelchair by
removable parts while occupied could cause user to fall or lose control. A fall or
loss of control could result in damage to your chair or in serious injury or death.
• Packaging material must be kept out of the reach of children. Improper handling of
packaging materials and the neglect of the duty to supervise children could result in
suffocation and serious injury or death.
• Do not expose the chair and components to any extreme temperatures (e.g.
sunlight, sauna, extreme cold). Hypothermia or burns through contact with the chair
and components can occur and/or failure of components.
CAUTION: Avoid overtightening bolts and hardware that attach components to the frame.
Overtightening could cause damage to the chair; affecting its durability and performance.
Damage to the chair could result in injury to the user.
NOTE: Information about tightening hardware can be found in the maintenance section of
this manual. If you are unsure how to properly tighten bolts or hardware or lack the tools
necessary, consult your authorized supplier.

III. NOTICE - READ BEFORE USE
G. Positioning Belts or Harnesses
WARNING: Improper use of positioning belts can cause the user to slide underneath the
positioning belt in the wheelchair. If this should happen, chest compression or suffocation
due to pressure from the belt can occur. If this occurs, the user’s breathing may be
hampered causing serious injury or death.
• Improper use of positioning belts could cause body parts to become entangled
which can restrict mobility and movement, which could result in serious injury or
death.
Ki Mobility recommends the use of pelvic positioning belts. Pelvic positioning belts can reduce
the risk of falling from your wheelchair.
Positioning belts, such as pelvic positioning belts and anterior trunk harnesses and straps, are
designed to assist, retain and support proper positioning and posture in the wheelchair.
• Ensure the user does not slide underneath the positioning belt in the wheelchair seat.
• The positioning belt should have a snug fit; tight enough to hold their position, but not so
tight as to restrict breathing. An open hand should be able to fit between the belt and the
user.
• Proper use of cushions can contribute to pelvic stability and reduce sliding.
• NEVER Use Positioning Belts:
a. As a restraint. A restraint requires a doctor’s order.
i. Unless you can remove the belts easily in an emergency. If you cannot do this, consult
with your health care advisor for other options to help with your posture.
b. On a user who is unconscious or agitated.
c. As an occupant restraint or safety belt 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 fur-
ther injury may result from the belts or straps. Reference Transit section of this manual
for further information.
H. Riding Your Wheelchair
WARNING: Avoid pushing or using your wheelchair on soft, rough, uneven, or slick
surfaces (including but not limited to ice, sand, loose soil, grass, gravel, potholes, cracks,
and broken pavement). Use on such surfaces could cause the wheelchair to lose stability
causing it to tip unexpectedly resulting in a fall or loss of control. A fall or loss of control
could result in damage to your wheelchair, serious injury or death.
• Always look ahead for potential obstructions or surface transitions that could cause
your front caster wheels to catch causing your wheelchair to abruptly stop. Failure
to do so could cause the wheelchair to tip unexpectedly resulting in a fall or loss of
control. A fall or loss of control could result in damage to your wheelchair, serious
injury or death.

7
III. NOTICE - READ BEFORE USE
H. Riding Your Wheelchair (Continued)
• Always look ahead for objects or obstructions that your wheelchair could
potentially strike. Striking an object or obstruction could cause your wheelchair to
tip unexpectedly resulting in a fall or loss of control. A fall or loss of control could
result in damage to your wheelchair, serious injury or death. In addition, striking an
object or obstruction could cause damage to your wheelchair. The risk of injuries
and damage to your wheelchair when striking an object or obstruction increases
with your rate of speed.
• Using your wheelchair on public roads is extremely hazardous and is not
recommended. Wheelchair users must obey pedestrian traffic rules. Review the
traffic laws in your own state, some states do not permit wheelchair use on public
roads.
• Your balance is affected by the slope of the surfaces you ride on. Because balance
is affected, your wheelchair will be less stable when it is at an angle. This is
especially true when riding on a slope sideways. Riding your wheelchair on a slope
could cause the wheelchair to tip unexpectedly and/or the user to lose stability
resulting in a fall or loss of control. A fall or loss of control could result in damage to
your wheelchair, serious injury or death.
• When using your wheelchair in public or private areas (including but not limited to
crosswalks, sidewalks, neighborhoods, parking lots and parks) be alert to the
danger of motor vehicles. Due to your low position:
•When lighting is poor use reflective tape on your wheelchair and clothing.
•If you have the right-of-way always yield until the driver of the motor vehicle has
seen you.
• Use extreme caution when propelling backward. You may be unable to see an
obstruction that could cause a tip over. Tipping over could result in damage to your
wheelchair, serious injury or death.
• Ki Mobility does not recommend balancing on just the rear wheels with the front
casters off the ground (also known as doing a “wheelie”). A fall or tip over is very
likely and could result in damage to your wheelchair, serious injury or death. If you
choose to ignore this warning, do not attempt a wheelie unless you have been
trained by a clinical or technical professional. You should always have the
assistance of an able-bodied person prepared to prevent you from exceeding your
tipping point.
• Do not ride your wheelchair on an escalator. Use of a wheelchair on an escalator
could cause a fall, tip-over or loss of control. A fall, tip over or loss of control could
result in damage to your wheelchair, severe injury or death.
• Avoid getting dressed or undressed in your wheelchair. Dressing or undressing in
your wheelchair causes your weight to shift. Thus, increasing your risk of falling or
tipping over. Falling or tipping over could result in damage to your wheelchair,
serious injury or death.
• Ki Mobility recommends using accessories such as heel loops and calf straps.
When used properly, heel loops and calf straps can aid in preventing your legs and
feet from accidentally slipping off the footplate or footrest potentially causing your
feet to become entangled in the wheelchair and its components or strike the
ground. Use of a wheelchair without accessories such as properly fitted heel loops
and calf straps can result in a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
could result in injury.

III. NOTICE - READ BEFORE USE
H. Riding Your Wheelchair (Continued)
When using your wheelchair always:
• Scan the area well ahead of your wheelchair as you ride.
• Ensure the surfaces you ride on are level and free of obstacles.
• Remove or cover threshold strips between rooms.
• If your wheelchair has anti-tips make sure they are locked in place when riding your
wheelchair (Reference IV, M. for proper use of anti-tips).
• Keep both of your hands on the handrims as you go over obstacles.
• Never push or pull off an object to propel your wheelchair.
• Make sure there is not a drop off at the bottom of ramps.
• On an up-slope, lean your upper body forward slightly to prevent tipping backwards.
• On a down-slope, press your upper body backwards to prevent tipping forward.
• Do not attempt to push over obstacles without assistance.
• Ensure all ramps, slopes or curb cuts you attempt to ride on are compliant with ADA
(Americans with Disabilities Act) guidelines or the equivalent accessibility guidelines in
your region.
ADA Guidelines and more information about accessible design are available at: www.ada.gov
I. Power Drives
WARNING: Ensure the power drive system has been validated and approved by the
manufacturer for use with your Ki wheelchair and its configuration. Use of an unapproved
external power drive system could result in mechanical failure of the wheelchair or cause
a fall. A fall could result in damage to your wheelchair, severe injury or death.
• Power drive systems change the stability and performance of the wheelchair.
Always use anti-tips with your power drive system. Failure to do so could result in
your wheelchair tipping over backwards. Tipping over backwards could result in
damage to your wheelchair, severe injury or death.
• Always look ahead for objects or obstructions that your wheelchair could
potentially strike. Power drive systems change the performance of the wheelchair
and will increase the risk of tipping unexpectedly if you strike an object or
obstruction. Tipping unexpectedly could result in a fall or loss of control. A fall or
loss of control could result in damage to your wheelchair. The risk of injuries and
damage to your wheelchair when striking an object or obstruction increases with
your rate of speed.
Ki Mobility does not recommend the installation of power drive systems on any Ki Mobility
wheelchair. Ki Mobility wheelchairs have not been designed or tested by Ki Mobility as power
wheelchairs. If you add a power drive system to a Ki Mobility wheelchair, be sure the
manufacturer of the power drive system has validated and approved the combination of the
power drive system and wheelchair as safe and effective.

J. Your Wheelchair and the Environment
CAUTION: 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.
K. Modifying your Wheelchair
WARNING: NO ONE SHOULD MODIFY THIS WHEELCHAIR EXCEPT BY ADJUSTING IT
ACCORDING TO THIS MANUAL OR BY ADDING KI MOBILITY APPROVED OPTIONS.
THERE ARE NO APPROVED OPTIONS THAT INVOLVE DRILLING OR CUTTING THE
FRAME BY ANYONE OTHER THAN A TRAINED KI MOBILITY ASSOCIATE. Your wheelchair
was engineered and manufactured under strict design controls. An integral part of this
process is ensuring the various components work together correctly; they have been
tested to various standards to ensure quality and are approved to work together. Contact
an authorized supplier or Ki Mobility before adding any accessories or components not
provided by Ki Mobility. Unapproved modifications or options could lead to fall and cause
serious injury or death.
L. Wheelchair Stability
WARNING: The stability of your wheelchair could be affected when using on soft, rough,
uneven (incline or decline), or slick surfaces (including but not limited to ice, sand, loose
soil, grass, gravel, potholes, cracks, and broken pavement). Use on such surfaces could
cause the wheelchair to tip unexpectedly resulting in a fall or loss of control. A fall or loss
of control could result in damage to your wheelchair, serious injury or death.
• Shifting weight in your wheelchair, adding weight to your wheelchair and carry or
reaching for objects could affect the stability of your wheelchair. Thus, increasing
your risk of falling or tipping over. Falling or tipping over could result in damage to
your wheelchair, serious injury or death.
• Avoid getting dressed or undressed in your wheelchair. Dressing or undressing in
your wheelchair causes your weight to shift. Thus, increasing your risk of falling or
tipping over. Falling or tipping over could result in damage to your wheelchair,
serious injury or death.
• Ki Mobility does not recommend balancing on just the rear wheels with the front
casters off the ground (also known as doing a “wheelie”). A fall or tip over is very
likely and could result in damage to your wheelchair, serious injury or death. If you
choose to ignore this warning, do not attempt a wheelie unless you have been
trained by a clinical or technical professional. You should always have the
assistance of an able-bodied person prepared to prevent you from exceeding your
tipping point.

III. NOTICE - READ BEFORE USE
L. Wheelchair Stability (Continued)
WARNING: If the wheelchair is equipped with a system to vary the tilt angle of the seat
frame, confirm it is stable throughout the range of angle changes before use. If the
wheelchair is not stable throughout the range of tilt angles a fall or tip over is imminent.
Falling or tipping over could result in damage to your wheelchair, serious injury or death.
Strategies to minimize the risk of falling:
• Ensure anti-tips are in the correct position (Reference IV, M. for proper use of anti-tips).
• Lean forward when pushing up an incline.
• Lean back when pushing down a decline.
• Have an attendant behind you to provide assistance.
• Wheelchair set up should be done only by an authorized technician.
• Always use the accessories provided.
• Your wheelchair should be adjusted by an authorized technician when there are changes in
your weight or how you sit.

IV. WHEELCHAIR USE & CONFIGURATION
E. Cushion Use
WARNING: Avoid sitting for long periods of time without a proper wheelchair cushion.
Sitting for long periods of time without a proper wheelchair cushion could cause pressure
ulcers which could lead to serious infections or even death.
• Secure the cushion before use or transfer. Failure to secure a cushion can cause it
to slide out during use or transfers, resulting in a fall or loss of control. A fall or loss
of control could result in damage to your chair or in serious injury or death to you or
others.
a. This wheelchair was designed to be used with a proper wheelchair cushion.
b. The standard sling upholstery is provided with hook and loop self fastening strips. The
cushion being used should have hook type fasteners that can engage the loop of the seat
sling to keep the cushion from sliding out from under you. Ensure the cushion is securely
attached before transferring or sitting in the wheelchair.
c. A standard seat sling may not have been provided with your chair. Check with your wheel-
chair provider if an aftermarket replacement to the original equipment sling has been pro-
vided. If so, make sure you follow the instructions for use provided by the aftermarket
manufacturer.
