Introduction
MANDATORY! The following information pertains to power chairs equipped with
a factory-installed Pride Transit Securement Package. Read this information in
its entirety before use in a motor vehicle. If you have any questions about this
information or about using your power chair as a seat in a motor vehicle, contact
your authorised Pride Dealer/Quantum Dealer.
The Pride Transit Securement Package conforms with the standard of ISO 7176-19 for the purpose
of enabling power chairs to be secured in certain types of motor vehicles. The Transit Securement
Package, including manufacturer-installed front and rear securement brackets, has been crash
tested in accordance with ISO 7176-19, Frontal Impact Test, with a 76.2-kg (168-lb.) surrogate occupant
corresponding to a user weight range of 52.16–95.25 kg (115–210 lbs.).
Notwithstanding this standard and testing conformance, many government transportation agencies,
at the time of publication, have not approved any securement system of an occupied power chair in
a motor vehicle. Therefore, it is the position of Pride Mobility Products that the Transit Securement
Package should only be utilised to secure an occupied power chair being transported in a motor vehicle
at the user’s discretion and in accordance with ISO 7176-19 standards, which are intended to increase
safety, but do not suggest that compliance with the standards will necessarily prevent serious injury or
death of a secured power chair occupant during motor vehicle transport.
In accordance with ISO 7176-19 standards, the power chair user should transfer into the vehicle seat
and use the vehicle-installed belt restraint system if and whenever feasible. The Transit Securement
Package is only available when factory-installed on new power chairs, and cannot be retrofitted on
existing power chairs or serviced in the field.
PROHIBITED! Do not modify your power chair in any way not authorised by Pride/
Quantum. Do not make alterations or substitutions to power chair structural parts
or frame components without consulting Pride/Quantum.

User Safety Information
MANDATORY! Always secure the power chair and occupant in a forward-facing
position in the vehicle.
MANDATORY! The power chair should be used as indicated in the manufacturer’s
instructions. If you have any questions about the proper use of your power chair,
contact your authorised Pride Dealer/Quantum Dealer.
MANDATORY! Only belt restraints that comply with the provisions of ISO 7176-19
and that have been dynamically tested in accordance with this standard should be
installed on the power chair for use as a restraint in a motor vehicle.
WARNING! Use only AGM or Gel-Cell batteries to reduce the risk of leakage or
explosive conditions.
WARNING! If the total power chair mass is greater than 275 lbs. (125 kg), then
transport in a motor vehicle with a gross vehicle weight greater than 8,800 lbs.
(4,000 kg) is recommended if the option exists.
Protocols and Procedures
The power chair user should transfer into the vehicle seat and use the vehicle-installed restraint system
if and whenever feasible. The power chair should then be stored and secured in the vehicle.
If it is found necessary at the user’s discretion to secure a power chair to a vehicle, the vehicle must be
equipped with a Wheelchair Tie-down and Occupant Restraint System (WTORS) that has been installed
in accordance with the tie-down manufacturer’s instructions, and is compliant with ISO 10542 standards,
and the power chair must have a transit securement package conforming to ISO 7176-19 standards.
It is essential to use a complete WTORS to secure the power chair to the vehicle and to provide the
power chair occupant with a properly designed and tested safety restraint system. A restraint system
with both pelvic and upper-torso belts must be used to protect the power chair occupant and minimise
the likelihood of injury caused by contact with the vehicle during a crash or sudden braking.
WARNING! Only power chairs marked with this symbol are rated for occupied use.
WARNING! If the total power chair mass is greater than 125 kg (275 lbs.), then it is
recommended that two additional ISO 10542 compliant rear securement straps be
used to anchor the power chair during motor vehicle transport.

Securing the Power Chair
NOTE:In addition to following the general guidelines below,be sure to follow all recommendations
and instructions provided by the WTORS manufacturer.
Always secure the power chair in a forward-facing position in the vehicle.
Attach the four, six, or eight tie-down straps only to designated, labeled transit securement points
indicated by anchor symbols on the power chair. See figures 3 through 12. Tighten the straps to
sufficiently remove all slack.
Never attach tie-downs to adjustable, moving, or removable parts of the power chair such as
armrests, front riggings and wheels.
Position the anchor points for the rear tie-down straps directly behind the rear securement points on
the power chair. The front tie-down straps should anchor to floor points that are spaced wider than
the power chair to provide increased lateral stability. See figure 1.
WARNING! Ensure power chairs equipped with a transit securement system are
properly secured to the motor vehicle during transport. Power chairs that are not
properly secured can become a hazard to the user and to other vehicle passengers
in the event of a crash, sudden stopping or swerving, as the power chair could tip
or slide out of place.

Occupied Transit
Securing the Power Chair Occupant (Applies Only to Transit Systems Rated for Occupied Use)
Once the power chair has been properly secured, it is essential that the power chair occupant be
protected for transport.
WARNING! The power chair occupant must be secured with dynamically crash-
tested and approved pelvic and upper-torso belts or with a five-point child restraint
harness as part of WTORS.
Always secure the power chair occupant in a forward-facing position in the vehicle.
Place the pelvic belt across the front of the pelvis near the upper thighs, not high over the abdomen.
WARNING! The pelvic belt should be angled between 45 and 75 degrees to the
horizontal when viewed from the side. However, if the user cannot achieve this
standard, an optional zone of 30 to 45 degrees can be utilised safely.
Figure 13. Recommended Pelvic Belt Placement Angles

13
The frontal clear zone (FCZ) is measured from the forwardmost point on the occupant’s head and
should measure at least 66 cm (26 in.) if both a pelvic and upper-torso belt are used. See figure 14.
NOTE:The recommended frontal clear zone may not be achievable for power chair-seated vehicle
operators.
The rear clear zone (RCZ) is measured from the rearmost point on the occupant’s head and should
measure at least 40.64 cm (16 in.). See figure 14.
The seated head height (HHT) ranges from about 120 cm (47 in.) for a small adult female to about
155 cm (61 in.) for a tall adult male. See figure 14.
WARNING! Always allow for proper clear zones when securing an occupied power
chair in a motor vehicle.
WARNING! Allow as much clearance as possible around the power chair occupant
to reduce the possibility of contact with vehicle components and other passengers
in the event of a crash.
WARNING! Ensure all vehicle components that are in close proximity to the power
chair occupant are removed or covered with dense padding.
Figure 14. Recommended Clear Zones for Power Chair-seated Occupants

14
Some power chair components, like armrests and wheels, can interfere with proper belt fit. It may be
necessary to insert the belt between the armrest and the seatback or through openings between the
backrest and seat in order to avoid placing the pelvic belt over the armrest. See figure 15.
Pelvic restraints should
make full contact
across the front of
the body near
the junction of
the thigh
and pelvis.
Belt restraints must not be
held away from the body by
power chair components
such as armrests
or wheels.
Belt restraints must not be
held away from the body by
power chair components
such as armrests
or wheels.
Figure 15. Proper Pelvic Belt Placement
Figure 16. Proper Pelvic Belt
Placement
Place the upper-torso belt across the middle of the shoulder
and the center of the chest, and connect to the pelvic belt that
is secured to the floor of the vehicle. See figure 16.
WARNING! The uppertorso belt webbing should
not be worn twisted in a manner that reduces
the area of contact of the belt with the occupant.
The upper-torso belt anchor point should be anchored above
and behind the top of the power chair occupant’s shoulder
to ensure that the occupant is properly restrained during
transport. Both the pelvic and upper-torso belt restraints
should be adjusted as snugly as possible consistent with user
comfort.
WARNING! The buckle of belt restraint systems
should not be located near power chair
components that may come in contact with the
buckle release button in the event of a vehicle
accident or collision.
If your power chair is equipped with a crash-tested pelvic
belt that is anchored to the seat frame, complete the restraint
system by attaching the lower end of the WTORS upper-torso
belt to the pelvic belt by referring to the WTORS manufacturer’s
instruction. Crash-tested power chair-anchored pelvic belts
will be labeled to indicate compliance to the ANSI/RESNA
WC/Vol 4, Section 19/ISO 7176-19 standards. See figure 17.

15
MANDATORY! A vehicle-anchored belt restraint system conforming to ISO 10542
must be used if the power chair occupant chooses not to utilise a manufacturer-
installed power chair-anchored belt restraint system or if it is not available on the
system.
WARNING! Although postural supports and belts may be used in a moving vehicle
in addition to the occupant belt restraint system, they should not be relied upon to
replace occupant restraints that have been designed and tested for this purpose
and should not interfere with proper belt restraint placement.
Figure 17. Vehicle-anchored Belt Restraint

16
Important Points to Remember
MANDATORY! Read and follow all manufacturer’s instructions, including the
product owner’s manual.
MANDATORY! Any WTORS or power chair involved in a vehicle crash should be
replaced.
WARNING! The power chair seatback should be positioned at an angle of no more
than 30 degrees to the vertical. If a greater recline angle is required, the upper-torso
belt anchor point should be moved rearward along the vehicle’s sidewall to ensure
that the belt maintains contact with the power chair occupant’s shoulder and chest.
WARNING! Visually inspect all WTORS equipment according to WTORS
manufacturer’s instructions on a regular basis,and have worn or broken components
replaced immediately. Ensure anchorage track is free of dirt and debris.
WARNING! Remove hard trays and stow or secure them elsewhere in the vehicle to
reduce the chance of power chair occupant injury from contact with the tray.
WARNING! Consider using foam trays in place of rigid trays during vehicle transport.
If that is not possible, place dense foam padding between the power chair occupant
and the tray, and make sure that the tray is securely attached to the power chair so
that it will not break loose and cause injury to other occupants in a crash.
WARNING! Ensure the power chair occupant is properly positioned to protect the
neck during rear impact.
WARNING! Secure all removable accessories, including clothing guards, medical
and other equipment to the power chair or vehicle, to prevent injury during a crash.
WARNING! If head and neck support is required during travel, use a soft, light neck
collar as they are less likely to cause neck injury in a crash. Do not attach the soft
collar to the power chair or seating system.
Transit Securement System
The following components of the transit securement package must be compliant to ISO 10542 standards
and must be installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Wheelchair Tie-down and Occupant Restraint System (WTORS)
4-point power chair tie-down system with an integrated 3-point occupant restraint
Tie-down end fittings
