DANGER!
1. Always ensure that you are able to operate all controls from a
comfortable position. Paying attention to your posture is essential to
ensure your continued comfort and well being.
2. Always ensure that you can be seen clearly. Use the lights, especially if
you intend using your seating system in poor light.
3. This seating system has been set up to match the needs of a particular
user. If used by another user, then it may need to be adjusted.

damaged or broken some of the components. Wheelchairs involved in sudden
stops should be inspected for possible failures in frame and/or components.
Frame damage may be represented by but not limited to: visual cracks, dents,
metal distortion, bends, or damage to the seating mounting. If the chair no
longer drives straight, it could be damaged. If the wheelchair has been
involved in an accident, discontinue use immediately and contact
your Sunrise Medical authorized dealer for a thorough inspection.
If the damage is questionable or if there is concern regarding the condition of
the chair, Sunrise Medical recommends replacement of the chair.
Wheelchairs involved in collisions should be replaced.
NOTE: the warranty is void on any wheelchair that is involved in
a collision.

4.0 WARNINGS FOR COMPONENTS AND OPTIONS
WARNING!
If you use parts or make changes not authorized by Sunrise Medical it may
create a safety hazard and will void the warranty.
4.1 Armrests
DANGER!
1. Armrests will not bear the weight of the user.
2. Never lift this system by its armrests. They may come loose or break.
3. When transferring the user in or out of the seating system, never use the
armrest as a means of support.
4.2 Cushions
WARNING!
1. Standard foam cushions and other body supports are not designed for
the relief of pressure.
2. If you suffer from pressure sores, or if you are at risk that they will occur,
you may need a special seating system or a device that will help control
your posture.
• Consult your health care provider to find out if you need such a
device for your comfort and health.
4.3 Fasteners
WARNING!
Many of the screws, bolts, and nuts on this system are special high-strength
fasteners. Use of improper fasteners may cause your system to fail.
1. Only use fasteners provided by Sunrise Medical.
2. If fasteners become loose, tighten them immediately.
3. Do not over- or under-tighten fasteners as this can cause damage to your
system or it's components.
4. Always tighten to specified torque. Specified torque values are listed in
Section 9.
5. Do not reuse fasteners.
4.4 Footplate and footrests
DANGER!
1. At the lowest point, footrests should be at least 2-in (51mm) off the
ground. If set too LOW, they may "hang up" on obstacles you can expect
to find in normal use. This may cause the system to stop suddenly and tip
forward.
2. To avoid a trip or fall when you transfer:
• Ensure your feet do not "hang up" or get caught in the space
between the footrests.
• Avoid putting weight on the footrests, as the system may tip
forward.
• Remove or swing the footrests out of the way, if possible.
3. The footrest should always be in the down position when operating the
system.
4. Never lift this system by the footrests. Footrests detach and will not bear
the weight of this system. Lift this system only by non-detachable parts of
the main frame.
4.5 Positioning belts
DANGER!
The positioning belt is predominately used to support your posture. It can
also be used to limit slipping and/or sliding that you might experience when
the system is in motion. The positioning belt is not a transit rated safety belt
and should not be used in the place of a seat belt while being transported in
a motor vehicle. Improper use of positioning belts may cause severe injury or
death. If you use a positioning belt, ensure you follow the recommendations in
this section:
1. Ensure the rider does not slide down in the seating system seat. If this
occurs, the rider may suffer chest compression or suffocate due to
pressure from the belts.
2. The belts must be snug, but must not be so tight that they interfere with
breathing. You should be able to slide your open hand, flat, between the
belt and the rider.
3. A pelvic wedge or a similar device can help keep the rider from sliding
down in the seat. Consult with the rider's doctor or health care provider
to find out if the rider needs such a device.
4. Use positioning belts only with a rider who can cooperate. Ensure the
rider or attendant can easily remove the belts in case of emergency.
5. NEVER use positioning belts:
a. As a patient restraint. A restraint requires a doctor's order.
b. On a rider who is comatose or agitated.
c. As a motor vehicle restraint. In an accident or sudden stop the
rider may be thrown from the system. Seating system positioning
belts will not prevent this, and further injury may result from the
belts or straps.
If you fail to heed these warnings, damage to your system, a fall, tip-over, or
loss of control may occur and cause severe injury to the rider or others.
4.6 Push handles
DANGER!
1. Push handles provide secure points for an attendant to propel and
control the system. This helps to prevent a fall or tip-over.
2. Check to ensure push handle grips will not rotate or slip off.
4.7 Seating systems
DANGER!
1. Use of a seating system not approved by Sunrise Medical may affect or
interfere with other parts of the system.
2. Never change the seating system unless you consult your Sunrise Medical
authorized dealer first.
3. Never raise your seating system to a height of more than 19-in (482mm)
(measuring from the front of the seat pan to the floor) with all actuators
in their home position.
4.8 Upholstery fabric
DANGER!
1. Replace worn or torn fabric of the seat sling and/or seat back as soon as
possible. If you fail to do so, the seat may fail and cause you to fall. Worn
or torn fabrics may increase the potential for a fire hazard.
2. Fabric will deteriorate with age and use. Look for fraying, thin spots, or
stretching of fabric at rivet holes. Replace fabric as required.
3. Be aware that washing may reduce flame retardation qualities of the
fabric.
4.9 Wiring and connectors
WARNING!
Never pull on cables directly. This can result in wires breaking inside the
connector or harness. To remove a plug or connector, always grasp the plug or
connector itself.
4.10 Assignable controls
DANGER!
It is possible to assign a function to an input control (buttons, jacks) to your
seating system. If controls have been assigned to perform a dual or alternate
function, ensure you know what each control operates. Please contact your
Sunrise Medical authorized dealer if you do not receive this information. Failure
to do so may result in damage and/or injury.

Quickie®SEDEO®LITE
252852 Rev. C9
4.0 WARNINGS FOR COMPONENTS AND OPTIONS
4.11 Power seating safety
DANGER!
1. Operation
a. While driving this seating system in the elevated or tilted
position use caution.
b. Do not attempt to operate any power seating option while
positioned on an incline.
c. Do not attempt to operate any power seating option while this
seating system is in motion.
d. Do not attempt to operate the lift or tilt power seating options
around children.
e. Through programming it is possible to reverse the direction of all
powered seating functions. Ensure you know which direction your
seat is going to move before operating. Please discuss with your
Sunrise Medical authorized dealer which direction the power
seating functions have been programmed.
2. Reduced Speed Driving (Creep and/or C-Me)
This power system is designed to automatically reduce the maximum
driving speed to a creep and/or C-Me mode when certain power seating
limits are reached. Depending on the configuration of the chair there
might be multiple creep and/or C-Me speeds. Please discuss the multiple
creep and/or C-Me speeds with your Sunrise Medical authorized dealer.
Before operating your chair in creep and/or C-Me mode, read all
warnings and guidelines related to this feature. They will help in
understanding how to reduce the risk of a fall or tip-over and how to
identify environmental conditions that could affect your safety when
driving while the chair is in creep and/or C-Me speed.
a. When driving indoors or outdoors, in creep mode, it should only
be used on at, level, and hardscape surfaces.
b. Driving in creep mode should never be attempted on uneven
terrain like: gravel, grass, bumpy surfaces, uneven sidewalks, or
hills.
c. This feature may be equipped with a system that allows the
power chair to drive up to 3 mph when the seat is elevated. This
feature is called C-Me.
d. NEVER raise the seat when the chair is being operated in the
proximity of any of the terrain types listed above, or on any
uneven surface.
3. Pinch points
Pinch points may occur when operating the powered seating options on
this system. Ensure all hands and body parts are clear of all power
seating components that may result in pinch points before operating
them.
4. Tilting power base with push handles
Do not attempt to tilt power wheelchairs by pulling down on the push
handles. Power wheelchairs have heavy bases. As such, attempting to tilt
a power seating system to traverse obstacles can damage components in
the seating system and/or modular actuators.
5. Remain clear during power accessory operation
Please stay clear of any powered actuator while the component is in
motion. Sunrise Medical power mechanisms move over large ranges of
travel. Users should be aware of their surroundings while components
are in motion.
6. Maximum user weight
Do not exceed the weight capacity for your specific system/seating
system configuration. Doing so could result in premature failure or injury.
7. Latch mode
Use caution while operating any power seating function in latched mode.
In latch mode, powered seating will not stop until a reverse command is
performed or the end of travel is met. Please consult with your Sunrise
Medical authorized dealer to receive training before using latch mode.
Failure to do so may result in potential serious injury.
4.12 Power leg rest
DANGER!
The power leg rest accessory has a maximum user weight capacity of up to
350 lbs (158 kg) depending on your system configuration. Never exceed this
capacity while operating the powered actuator.
4.13 Lift or Tilt
DANGER!
Pinch Point
Avoid putting hands, fingers, clothing items, or letting children near the
seating system when the Tilt/Lift mechanism is in operation.
Lift or Tilt Weight Capacity
The powered lift or tilt modular accessory for this system has a maximum user
weight of up to 300 lbs (136 kg), 350 lbs (158 kg) for heavy duty tilt. Never
exceed this capacity while operating the powered actuator.
4.14 C-Me®Lift
DANGER!
The C-ME accessory has a maximum user weight capacity of 300 lbs (136 kg)
with a maximum speed of 3 mph at full lift. Never exceed this capacity while
operating the lift.
WARNING!
Exceeding these weight capacities could lead to injury and/or permanent
damage to the equipment.
Note: Exceeding the weight limit will void the warranty.
4.15 Swing away joystick arm
DANGER!
Before adjusting the swing away arm, switch off the controller to avoid
accidental displacement of the joystick which would cause unwanted
movement of your wheelchair. Be aware that the width of your chair may have
increased and you may not be able to go through certain obstacles.
DANGER!
1. Only operate the wheelchair at a low and maneuverable speed when the
parallel swing-away is in use. (Fig. 4.1)
2. When transferring to and from the wheelchair, do not use the remote as
a means of support.
3. Do not hang any items on or over the parallel swing-away remote
assembly as this could damage the swing-away mechanism.
Note: hanging items on/near the joystick may cause unwanted movement and
potential of serious injury or death!
Fig. 4.1

Quickie®SEDEO®LITE
248020 Rev. F 10
4.16 Transit
DANGER!
Important Transit notes for the chair:
1. If possible and feasible, the rider should transfer to the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM)
vehicle seat and use the vehicle restraint.
2. If the seating system is used for transport, it must be used in a forward-facing seating position during
travel in a motor vehicle.
3. The recommended clear zones for wheelchair seated occupants restrained by both pelvic and
upper-torso belt(s) and only by a pelvic belt are shown in the diagrams (Fig. 4.2 and 4.3) and described
below. Frontal Clear Zones (FCZ) need to be larger when upper torso belt(s) are not used. The Rear
Clear Zone of 16-in (40.5 cm) is measured from the rearmost point on an occupant's head. The Front
Clear Zone is measured from the front most point of an occupant's head and is 26-in (66 cm) with
pelvic and upper-torso belt(s) and 37-in (94 cm) with only a pelvic belt. The frontal clear zone may not
be achievable for wheelchair-seated drivers.
4. The estimated seated height (HHT) from the ground or oor to the top of the wheelchair-seated
occupant's head ranges from approximately 47-in (119 cm) for a small adult female to about 61-in
(155 cm) for a tall adult male (Fig. 4.3).
5. The rider must not weigh more than the weight capacity of the wheelchair.
6. Attach WTORS to securement points in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and SAE
J2249.
7. Ensure hip guides are mounted and are locked in place.
8. Only use Wheelchair Tie-down and Occupant Restraint Systems (WTORS) which meet the
requirements of SAE J2249 Recommended Practice-Wheelchair Tie-down and Occupant Restraint
Systems For Use in Motor Vehicles. Do not use WTORS designed to rely on the wheelchair structure
to transfer occupant restraint loads to the vehicle.
9. In order to reduce the potential of injury to vehicle occupants, wheelchair mounted accessories, such
as trays and respiratory equipment, should be removed from the seating and wheelchair and secured
separately.
10. Postural supports and positioning devices should not be relied on for occupant restraint.
11. Do not alter or substitute wheelchair frame parts, components, or seating.
12. Sudden stops or impacts can structurally damage your system. Chairs involved in such incidents
should be replaced.
Important Transit notes for Occupant restraints:
13. Attach occupant restraints in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and SAE J2249.
14. Both pelvic and upper torso restraint belts must be used to restrain the occupant to reduce the
possibility of head and chest impacts with the vehicle components and serious risk of injury to the
user and other vehicle occupants (Fig. 4.4)
15. The upper torso restraint belt (A) should be mounted to the vehicle (B) pillar. Failure to do so will
increase the risk of serious abdominal injuries to the user (Fig. 4.4).
16. A head restraint suitable for transportation must be tted and suitably positioned at all times during
transportation.
17. The pelvic restraint belt (C) 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 degrees to the horizontal (Fig. 4.4).
18. A steeper (greater) angle within the preferred zone is desirable closer to, but not exceeding, 75
degrees (Fig. 4.6).
19. The upper torso restraint belt (A) must t over the shoulder and across the chest (Fig. 4.4).
20. Restraint belts must be adjusted as tightly as possible consistent with user comfort, and should not
constrict breathing (Fig. 4.5).

5.0 Setting up the seating system
The average wheelchair does not exist. This is why Sunrise Medical wheelchairs can be pre-set according to
specific needs of the user.
Pre-settings are carried out once, the first time the wheelchair is going to be used. They must be executed
by a qualified specialist, unless explicitly stated otherwise.
Tool and calibration marks
A M5 Allen key is supplied with the seating system. This can be used by a Sunrise Medical authorized dealer
for adjusting all the seating system settings.
CAUTION!
There are calibration marks on various parts of the seating system. The factory settings are indicated.

5.13 Lap belt / seating positioning belt (Fig. 5.39)
DANGER/WARNING!
1. This product is only to be used to position a single person in a wheelchair.
2. Lap belts are not suitable for transit purposes. Approved occupant restraint systems must be used.
3. Failure to heed these warnings may result in severe injury or death.
4. Ensure that the carer or attendant is trained in the correct operation of the belts.
5. Untrained carers or attendants may lead to delays, if an emergency situation occurs.
Mounting a lap belt /seating positioning belt
1. Attach (A) to the seating frame using a screw on the left and on the right. (Fig. 5.40)
Positioning a person with a lap belt
1. Adjust the lap belt to suit, leaving no more than a hand's width gap for comfort and safety. (Fig. 5.41)
2. The hand clearance should be with the lap belt under normal tension and not allow large gaps or
loops.
3. Generally, the lap belt should be fixed so that the belt sits at an angle of approximately 45° (Fig. 5.42),
and when correctly adjusted should not allow user to slip down in the seat.
4. Place the belt loosely across the seat with the opening end of the buckle facing to the right for a
left-handed person and to the left for a right handed person. Pass the other ends of the belt through
the gap between the backrest posts and the backrest.
DANGER/WARNING!
1. Always ensure that the lap belt is correctly secured and adjusted prior to use.
2. Too loose a belt could cause the user to slip down and cause serious injury.
3. Check lap belt and securing components at regular intervals for any signs of fray or damage. Replace if
necessary.
4. When servicing, check for correct operation of the release buckle and for any signs of wear on the
material or plastic brackets.
5. Regular checks/activities:
• As with all positioning components, there is a need for corrective adjustments as the person
changes their seating position over time.
• Check the belts regularly for correct fitting, to ensure the safety and comfort of the user.
