WARNING!
DO NOT USE YOUR WHEELCHAIR UNTIL
THIS MANUAL HAS BEEN READ AND
UNDERSTOOD.
User Information
Intended use power wheel chairs:
Power wheelchairs are exclusively for a user who is unable
to walk or has limited mobility, for their own personal use
in- and outdoor.
When an Attendant Control Module is fitted, the Power
Wheelchair may be operated by an assistant on behalf of
the user.
When a Dual Control Module is fitted the Power
Wheelchair may be operated by the user, or control may
be switched to an assistant to operate on behalf of the
user.
The maximum weight limit (includes both the user and any
weight of accessories fitted to the wheelchair) is marked
on the serial number label, which is affixed to the chassis
of the chair.
In the chair packaging there is an additional chair serial
number this can be affixed to the front page of the owners
manual supplied with the wheelchair.
Warranty can only be taken on if the product is used under
the specified conditions and for the intended purposes.
The intended lifetime of the wheelchair is 5 years. Please
DO NOT use or fit any 3rd party components to the
wheelchair unless they are officially approved by Sunrise
Medical.
Area of application
The variety of fitting variants as well as the modular

which under certain circumstances may present a choking
hazard to young children.
DANGER!
4.3 Preliminary checks:
• You should not try to manoeuvre at full speed.
• If you have to make a sudden turn, slow down first using
the joystick or the speed control knob.
• This is very important if you are going down a hill.
• Lack of attention to this point may result in your
overturning the wheelchair.
• Always check that the wheelchair is switched off before
trying to get in or out.
• Always check that you can operate all the controls from
a comfortable seated position. It is essential to pay
attention to posture in order to assure comfort and well-
being.

hose of a service station.
WARNING!
4.7 Freewheel device, (Fig.4.2):
Also see Fig.3.1
• Only use this function to push the chair manually from

Fig. 4.2

Rev. A Q100R Q200R 13
5.0 Transportation
5.1 Transport of the wheelchair in a car
Getting in and out of the vehicle
DANGER!
• Confirm that the vehicle is suitably equipped to transport
a passenger in a wheelchair, and ensure the method
of access/egress is suitable for your wheelchair type.
The vehicle should have the floor strength to take the
combined weight of the occupant, the wheelchair and
accessories.
• Use a ramp (or lifting device) suitable for the entire weight
of the wheelchair (including user) for entering the vehicle.
• The wheelchair should be secured in a forward facing
direction. This wheelchair is approved for use in cars and
meets the requirements for forward facing transport and
head on collisions. The wheelchair has not been tested
for other positions in a vehicle (Fig. 5.1).
CAUTION!
• Sufficient space should be available around the
wheelchair to enable clear access to attach, tighten and
release the wheelchair and occupant tie down restraints
and safety belts.
• Ease of access to, and manoeuvrability in, motor vehicles
can be significantly affected by wheelchair size and
turning radius; smaller wheelchairs and/ or wheelchairs
with a shorter turning radius will generally provide greater
ease of vehicle access and manoeuvrability to a forward-
facing position.
Securing the wheelchair with a strap restraint system
This wheelchair has been successfully crash tested in
accordance to: ISO 7176-19:2008, using a representing
restraint system.
• Secured with a 4-point strap restraint system (2 in the
front, 2 in the back, Fig.5.2), that conforms to:
i. ISO 10542 (international) or
ii. SAE J2249 (USA).
NOTE: Wheelchair secured with a 4-point strap restraint
system; suitable for the total weight of the wheelchair
(including any options) in accordance with the WTORS1)
manufacturers instruction.

DANGER!
• The wheelchair can only be secured by using the tie-
down points on the wheelchair’s frame (Fig. 5.2 - 5.8).
• The tie-down points (2 in the front, 2 in the back) are
indicated by the tie-down symbol (Fig. 5.5). Fit the front
straps first, then the rear. Tension the straps to secure
the wheelchair. The wheelchair may not be secured
onto any accessories (wishbones, armrests, anti-tip
brackets etc.).
• No changes or replacements must be made to the
anchorage points/car fastenings on the wheelchair, or
to constructional elements or parts of the frame without
consulting the manufacturer.
• When the wheelchair is transported in a vehicle without
occupant and no restraint system is available then the
wheelchair should be properly stored and secured in the
cargo area during travel.

Occupant restraint Instrucon
DANGER!
• Use a 3-point occupant restraint system to secure the
occupant.
• Both pelvic and upper torso restraint belts must be used
to restrain the occupant (Fig. 5.5) to reduce the possibility
of head and chest impacts with the vehicle components.
• Restraints should be mounted to the appropriate vehicle
pillar and should not be held away from the body by
wheelchair components such as armrest or wheels (Fig.
5.7).
• Use a suitable positioned headrest when being
transported in a wheelchair.
• Postural supports (lap straps, lap belts) should not be
used or relied on for occupant restraint in a moving vehicle
unless they are labelled as meeting the requirements
specified in ISO 7176-19:2008 or SAE J2249.
5.2 The wheelchair as a passenger seat
A wheelchair secured in a vehicle will not provide the
equivalent level of safety and security as a vehicle seating
system. Sunrise Medical recommends that the user
transfers to the vehicle seating and uses the vehicle-
installed restraint system wherever possible. Sunrise
Medical recognizes that it is not always practical for the
user to be transferred and in these circumstances, where
the user must be transported whilst in the wheelchair, the
following advice must be followed:
DANGER!
• The safety of the user during transportation depends
upon the diligence of the person securing the tie down
restraints and they should have received appropriate
instructions and/or training in their use.
• Wherever possible remove and stow safely away from
the wheelchair all auxiliary equipment, e.g. : crutches,
loose cushions, tray tables, etc.
i. Removed and secured separately in the vehicle, or
ii. Secured to the wheelchair, but with energy-absorbing
padding placed between the table and the user.
• Articulating/elevating leg rest should not be used in the
elevated position when the wheelchair and user are
being transported.
• If applicable: Reclining backrests should be returned to
an upright position.
• If applicable: Seat elevators should be in the lowest
position.
• If applicable: The manual brakes must be firmly applied.

16 Q100R Q200R Rev. A
Posioning the occupant restraint
DANGER!
• The pelvic restraint belt must be worn low across the
front of the pelvis so that the angle of the pelvic belt is
within the preferred zone of 30° to 75° to the horizontal.
• A steeper (greater) angle within the preferred zone is
desirable i.e. closer to, but never exceeding 75° degrees
(Fig. 5.10).
i. The upper torso restraint belt must t over the
shoulder and across the chest as illustrated (Fig. 5.9).
Restraint belts must be adjusted as tightly as possible
consistent with user comfort.
• Restraint belt webbing must not be twisted when in use.
• Care should be taken when applying the occupant
restraint to position the seatbelt buckle so that the release
button will not be contacted by wheelchair components
during a crash.
Passenger with a user weight < 22 kg.
When the user being transported is a child, less than 22 kg
mass and the vehicle involved has less than eight (8) seated
passengers it is recommended that they be transferred to
an UNCE Regulation 44 compliant child restraint system
(CRS).
This type of restraint system provides a more effective
occupant restraint system than the conventional 3 point
occupant restraint system and some CRS systems also
include additional postural supports to assist in maintaining
the position of the child when seated.
Parents or care providers may consider the option, in some
circumstances, for their child is to remain in their wheelchair
whilst in transport due to the level of posture control and
comfort provided by the set up in the wheelchair.
We would recommend in such circumstances that a risk
assessment be carried out by your healthcare professional
and relevant competent persons.

DANGER!
6.2 Sharp turns:
Full speed turns should not be attempted. If you need to
turn sharply you must reduce your speed with the joystick
or speed setting. This is particularly important when
travelling across or down a slope. Disregarding this advice
could lead to your wheelchair tipping over.
DANGER!
6.3 Weight limit:
• For Q100R The user plus items carried should never
exceed a total weight of 125 kgs.
• For Q200R The user plus items carried should never
exceed a total weight of 136 kgs.
• Never use this chair for weight training if the total weight
(user plus additional weights) exceed a total weight as
listed above.
• Exceeding the weight limit is likely to damage the seat,
frame or fasteners and may cause severe injury to you
or others from chair failure
• Exceeding the weight limit will void the warranty
Wheelchair motors:
6.4 Hot surfaces:
WARNING!
After prolonged use, the motors will produce heat, which
is radiated through the motors’ outer casing. Do not touch
the motors’ outer casing for at least 30 minutes after using
the wheelchair, to allow it to cool.
WARNING!
Not only motors can become hot during the operation of
the chair, the upholstery material and armrests may heat
up when standing in the sun.
DANGER!
6.5 Road caution:
• Please show the utmost consideration for the other
traffic on the road.
• Remember that the last thing a car or lorry driver expects
to see is a wheelchair backing off the kerb into the road.
• If in any doubt, do not risk crossing the road until you
are certain that it is safe.
• Always cross the road as quickly as possible; there may
be other traffic.
WARNING!
6.6 Adverse conditions:
• Please be aware that when driving your wheelchair
in adverse conditions, e.g. on wet grass, mud, ice,
snow or other slippery surfaces, you may experience
a reduction in the grip and traction of your wheelchair.
We recommend you take extra precautions in these
conditions, particularly on hills and slopes; your
wheelchair could become unstable or skid causing
possible injury. Extreme variances in temperature may
trigger the self protect mechanism in the control system.
If this occurs the control system will temporarily shut
down to prevent damage to the electronics or the chair.
• When you are using a Powered Scooter or Wheelchair,
take extra care with loose or long items of clothing.
Moving parts, such as wheels, can be potentially
dangerous or even fatal if clothing becomes entangled.
WARNING!
6.7 Ramps:
• When using a ramp, please ensure that it is capable
of taking the combined weight of the power chair and
yourself.
• If a ramp is being used to load a chair into a vehicle,
please ensure the ramp is properly secured to the
vehicle.
• Always approach the ramp head-on and exercise
caution.
• Please ensure your ramp is suitable for the product you
are transporting.
WARNING!
Maximum ramp angle is defined in Section 16 Specification
Sheets
6.8 Transfer to and from the chair:
Sunrise Medical recommend that you consult your
healthcare professional for assistance in developing your
personal front or side transfer technique to best suit your
needs and avoid any personal injury.
WARNING!
6.9 Anti tips:
• Make sure that anti tips are not damaged or worn before
using your chair.
• Check the anti tips are functioning correctly on a regular
basis.
• Attendants must be aware of the location of the anti tips
to prevent feet being trapped underneath causing injury.
• Attendants - Do not stand on the anti tips, this could
cause the wheelchair to become unstable.

WARNING!
6.10 Use on a slope:
Your wheelchair has been designed and tested to allow
its use on slopes or gradients as defined in Section 16
Specification Sheets.
• Before attempting to climb or descend a slope or a kerb,
caution should be taken when using weight shift options
(e.g. powered recline) of the seat where fitted and/or
your body for a counter balance weight.
• To improve stability lean forward when driving uphill,
with the seat and back in an upright position.
• Alternatively sit in an upright position when travelling
in a forward, downhill direction or recline the seat
backwards. We strongly recommend that you return
back to an upright lowered position before attempting to
climb or descend a slope.
• Failure to do this may cause the wheelchair to become
unstable.
• If you are in any doubt about the capabilities of your
wheelchair on a slope then do not attempt to drive up or
down the slope/kerb; try to find an alternative route.
WARNING!
6.11 Gradients: ascents:
• When going uphill, keep the chair moving.
• Steer by moving the joystick from side to side.
• If you have stopped on a hill, you should start slowly.
• On a RWD chair, if necessary lean forward to prevent
the tendency for the front wheels to lift.
WARNING!
6.12 Gradients: descents:
• On descents, it is important not to let the wheelchair
accelerate beyond its normal level of ground speed.
• It is safer to proceed slowly down steep descents
(below the speed of 5kph) and stop, if any anxiety arises
regarding directional control.
• If the chair picks up speed, centre the control to slow it
or to stop all forward movement, then restart slowly and
do not allow the speed to increase.
WARNING!
6.13 Lap belt:
Before using your wheelchair ensure the Lap belt is worn
and correctly adjusted before use.
The lap belt is fitted to the wheelchair as shown in the
fitting instructions in section 5 .7. It is important that the
belt is secured around the back of the wheelchair. The
straps can be fed between the armrest and backrest.
Adjust the belt position so that the buckles are in the
centre of the seat. See section 5.7.
Adjust the lap belt to suit the user’s needs as follows:
To increase the belt length:
Feed the belt through slide adjusters and male buckle to
provide more belt length, (Fig.6.1).
Fig.6.1
To reduce the belt length:
Feed the belt back through male buckle and slide
adjusters, (Fig.6.2).
