IV. Notice– Read Before Use 5
English
IV. NOTICE– READ BEFORE USE
A. CHOOSE THE RIGHT SEATING SYSTEM & SAFETY OPTIONS
Sunrise provides a number of power seating system styles, sizes and adjustments to meet
the needs of the rider. However, final selection of a seating system rests solely with you
and your health care professional. Choosing the best seating system for you depends on
such things as:
1. Your size, disability, strength, balance and coordination.
2. Your intended use, and your level of activity.
3. The types of hazards you must overcome in daily use (in areas where you are likely to
use your seating system).
4. The need for options for your safety and comfort (such as positioning belts).
B. AD UST SEATING SYSTEM TO YOUR ABILITY
You need to work with your doctor, nurse or therapist, and your supplier, to fit this seating
system and adjust the controller settings for your level of function and ability.
C. REVIEW THIS MANUAL OFTEN
Before using this seating system you, and each person who may assist you, should read
this entire Manual and make sure to follow all instructions. Review the warnings often,
until they are second nature to you.

930473 Rev. B
6English V. Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
V. ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE (EMI)
A. GENERAL
1. Heed all warnings to reduce the risk of unintended seating system movement.
2. Beware of the danger from hand held transceivers. Never turn on or use a hand held
transceiver while power to your seating system is on. Use extra care if you believe
that such a device may be in use near your seating system.
3. Be aware of nearby radio or TV stations, and avoid coming close to them.
4. If unintended movement occurs, turn your seating system off as soon as it is safe to
do so.
B. WHAT IS EMI?
1. EMI means: electromagnetic (EM) interference (I). EMI comes from radio wave sources
such as radio transmitters and transceivers. (A “transceiver” is a device that both
sends and receives radio wave signals).
2. There are a number of sources of intense EMI in your daily environment. Some of
these are obvious and easy to avoid. Others are not, and you may not be able to
avoid them.
3. Powered seating systems may be susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI)
emitted from sources such as radio stations, TV stations, amateur radio (HAM) trans
mitters, two way radios, and cellular phones.
4. EMI can also be produced by conducted sources or electro static discharge (ESD).
C. WHAT EFFECT CAN EMI HAVE?
1. EMI can cause your seating system, without warning, to:
•Move by itself.
•Move in unintended directions.
If either of these occurs, it could result in severe injury to you or others.
2. EMI can damage the control system of your seating system. This could create a safety
hazard and lead to costly repairs.
D. SOURCES OF EMI
The sources of EMI fall into two broad types:
1. Hand-Held Transceivers:
The antenna is usually mounted directly on the unit. These include:
•Citizens band (CB) radios
•“Walkie talkies”
•Security, fire and police radios
•Cellular phones
•Lap top computers with phone or fax
•Other personal communication devices
NOTE– These devices can transmit signals while they are on, even if not in use. Transceivers: these
include two way radios used in police cars, ambulances and taxicabs. The antenna is usually
mounted on the outside of the vehicle.
2. Long-range Transceivers:
These include commercial radio and TV broadcast antenna towers and amateur (HAM) radios.
NOTE– The following are not likely to cause EMI problems: Lap top computers (without phone or fax),
cordless phones, TV sets or AM/FM radios, CD or tape players.
E. DISTANCE FROM THE SOURCE
EM energy rapidly becomes more intense as you get closer to the source. For this reason,
EMI from hand held devices is of special concern. (See C:1 above) A person using one of
these devices can bring high levels of EM energy very close to your seating system without
you knowing it.

930473 Rev. B
V. Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) 7
English
F. IMMUNITY LEVEL
The level of EM energy is measured in volts per meter (V/m). Every power seating system
can resist EMI up to a certain level. This is called its “immunity level”.
The higher the immunity level, the less the risk of EMI. It is believed that a 20 V/m immu
nity level will protect the power seating system user from the more common sources of
radio waves.
The configuration tested and found to be immune to at least 20 V/m is: Quickie S 626
power seating system with a right hand mounted QTRONIX remote joystick system, 20" seat
width, 18" seat depth, dual post height adjustable armrests, elevating legrests and GP 24
gel cell batteries.
The following specialty input devices were not tested with the above listed power chair
configuration; therefore, their immunity level is unknown. These items include:
• Breath Control • Ribbon Switch
• Heavy Duty Switched Joystick • Disc Switch
• Proportional Head Control • Buddy Button
• Wafer Board • Micro Light
• Tri Switch Head Array • Star Board
• Proportional Mini Joystick/Chin Control • Penta Switch
• Proximity Head Array • Plate Switch
• Zero Touch Switch • Soft Switch
• 4 Zero Touch Switch • Grasp Switch
• 5 Zero Touch Switch • Wobble Switch
• Treadle Switch • 5 Switch Toggle
Individuals with physical limitations requiring the use of a specialty control input device
known not to be immune to 20 V/m, or not known, should exercise extra care around
known sources of EMI.
There is no way to know the effect on EMI if you add accessories or modify this seating
system.
Any change to your seating system may increase the risk of EMI. Parts from other suppliers
have unknown EMI properties.
G. REPORT ALL SUSPECTED EMI INCIDENTS
You should promptly report any unintended movement or brake release. Be sure to indicate
whether there was a radio wave source near your seating system at the time.

8English VI. Safety Instructions
VI. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
A. INSTRUCTION
Your dealer is responsible for instructing you in the safe operation of the seating system. If you do not feel that you have received adequate
instruction, or if you have any questions relating to the system, call your dealer. If you feel that your dealer is not answering any of your ques
tions to your satisfaction, call Sunrise Medical at [phone] or [phone].
B. SAFETY CHECKLIST
Before each use of this seating system:
• Make sure the seating system operates smoothly. Check for noise, vibration, or a change in ease of use. (They may indicate loose fas
teners, or damage to your seating system).
• If you detect a problem, make sure to repair or adjust the seating system. Deferring repair or adjustment could increase the risk for
injury. Your supplier can help you find and correct the problem.
C. NOTICE TO RIDER
1. Before using this seating system, you should be trained in its safe use by your health care professional.
2. Every seating system is different. Take the time to learn the feel of this seating system before you begin riding.
3. Be aware that you must develop your own methods for the safe use of this seating system that are best suited to your level of func
tion and ability.
4. Have someone help you practice bending, reaching and transferring until you learn how to do them safely.
5. Never try a new maneuver on your own unless you are sure it is safe.
6. Get to know the areas where you plan to use your seating system. Look for hazards and learn how to avoid them.
D. NOTICE TO ATTENDANTS
Make sure you heed all warnings and follow all instructions in each section of this manual.
(Be aware that warnings that apply to the rider also apply to you).
E. OPERATION
In order to ensure safe operation of your seating system…
• Never transfer when power is on.
• Never use the controller as a handhold or point of support.
• Always check your surroundings to ensure that there are no obstructions to the motion of the seating system.
• Never use the seat frame or components as a tie down point in a vehicle.
• Never exceed the 250 lbs. (113kg) weight capacity of the seating system.
• Never place hands, feet or any foreign object into the seating system mechanisms.
• Always follow the safety instructions of your seating system.
• Always keep your seating system clean and free of foreign objects.
If you have question or concerns about the operation of your seating system please call your dealer or call Sunrise Medical
at [phone] or [phone].
F. ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
Your seating system is not designed for use in a heavy rainstorm, or in snowy or icy conditions.
1. Contact with water or excessive moisture can cause an electrical malfunction. The frame, actuators and other seating system parts are
not watertight and may rust or corrode from the inside. To avoid a seating system failure:
•Minimize exposure of your seating system to a rainstorm, or very wet conditions.
•Do not use your seating system in fresh or salt water (such as at the edge of a stream, lake, or ocean).
•Make sure all electrical connections are secure.
•Dry the seating system as soon as you can if it gets wet, or if you use water to clean it.
2. When not in use, keep your seating system in a clean, dry place. Extra caution should be used when employing the disc switch or the
proximity head array as control devices. These two devices are susceptible to malfunction when wet.

930473 Rev. B
G. WEIGHT LIMIT
1. Never exceed a total weight of 250 lbs, for the rider plus carried items. The weight capacity of your seating system is identified by a
label located on the inside cover of the battery compartment door on the power base.
2. Never use this seating system for weight training if the total weight (rider plus weights lifted) exceeds the indicated weight capacity
of the seating system.
3. Exceeding the weight limit is likely to damage the seat, frame or fasteners and may cause severe injury to you or others from seating
system failure.
4. Exceeding the weight limit will void the warranty.
H. UPHOLSTERY FABRIC
1. Replace worn or torn fabric of seat cushion and seat back as soon as you can. Worn fabrics may increase the potential for a fire haz
ard.
2. Be aware that washing may reduce flame retardation of the fabric.
I. POSITIONING BELTS (OPTIONAL)
1. Use a positioning belt only to help support your posture. Improper use of such belts may cause severe injury or death.
2. Make sure you are not at risk to slide down in the seating system seat. If this occurs, you may suffer chest compression or suffocate
due to pressure from the belt.
3. A pelvic wedge or a similar device can help keep you from sliding down in the seat. Consult your health care professional to find out
if you need such a device.
4. The belt must be snug, but must not be so tight that it interferes with breathing. You should be able to slide your open hand, flat,
between the belt and your stomach.
5. Make sure you can easily remove the belt in an emergency.
6. Never use a positioning belt:
•In place of a motor vehicle seat belt. In an accident or sudden stop you may be thrown from the seating system. A positioning belt
will not prevent this, and further injury may result from the belt.
•As a restraint. A restraint requires a doctor’s order.
•On a rider who is comatose or agitated.
. CONTROLLER SETTINGS
Be aware that you may need to adjust the controller settings of your seating system to reduce the risk of fall or tip over.
1. Check and adjust the settings every six to twelve months (or more often, if needed).
2. Consult your supplier to adjust the control settings immediately if you notice any change in your ability to hold your torso erect.
K. TILTING, RECLINING, ELEVATING LEGRESTS
To prevent damage and personal injury, avoid operating these power functions near objects such as walls, tables or chairs. To avoid
injury, ensure other people, especially children, are clear of the system. If using a swing-away abductor, be sure not to tilt with
the abductor swung away. Otherwise, the abductor may collide with the tilt actuator when returning to the untilted position.
L. CHANGES AND AD USTMENTS
Never use non-Quickie parts or make changes to your chair unless authorized by Sunrise. (Doing so will void the warranty and
may create a safety hazard.)
1. If you modify or adjust this chair it may increase the risk of fall or tip over.
2. Modifications unauthorized by Sunrise constitute remanufacturing of the wheelchair. This voids the warranty. The rider then assumes
all future liability for the wheelchair.
