Vauxhall VIVARO User manual

VIVARO Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle – Recognised Conversion
National Small Series Type Approval e11-NKS-1139-00 and e11-NKS-1147-00.
Ideal for families and transport operators alike, the Gowrings Vivaro is a spacious and versatile wheelchair accessible vehicle which
can accommodate up to two wheelchairs with additional rear passengers in a choice of different seating combinations. Designed
with the wheelchair user and carer in mind, wheelchair access is via the rear tailgate using a one-piece lightweight ramp with
built-in gas-assist strut. Two sliding side-access doors are included as standard.
The conversion features a four-point wheelchair restraint system featuring front electric wheelchair restraints and removable rear
restraints to provide clear and easy wheelchair access, in addition to a personal lap and diagonal belt for each wheelchair passenger.
Additional conversion options include a remote control electric winch and a ‘One-touch, extra-low’ hydraulic lowering suspension
that lowers the back of the vehicle at the touch of a button. This reduces the entry level for ease of access.
