B. General Warnings
WARNING: Do not exceed weight limit of chair with Axiom Custom Seating.
Limits refer to combined weight in pounds of user and all items carried. Exceeding weight limit
may damage your chair or may increase your risk of falling or tipping over. A tip-over or fall could
result in serious injury or death.
• Do not use chair for weight training. The movement of the additional weight alters the
chair's center of gravity increasing your risk of tipping over. A tip-over could result in
damage to your chair or in serious injury or death.
• Keep tires inflated to correct tire pressure. Using a chair without properly inflated tires may
affect its stability, increasing your risk of tipping over. A tip-over could result in damage to
your chair or in serious injury or death to you or others. Correct tire pressure is indicated
on the side wall of the tire. Your wheelchair provider can determine if your tires are
inflatable if you are unsure.
• Underinflated tires may cause your wheel locks to not function properly. Failure of the
wheel locks to hold your chair may result in a loss of control or fall. This can result in
serious injury or death.
• Avoid ramps or slopes inclined more than 9 degrees. Steep slopes increase your risk of
falling or tipping over. A tip-over or fall could result in damage to your chair or in serious
injury or death to you or others. Do not use chair on ramps or slopes tilted more than 9
degrees (about 2 inches rise/drop per linear-foot): neither up/down nor across.
• Avoid inclined surfaces slick or coated with ice, oil or water. Slippery inclines could result
in falling or tipping over. A tip-over or fall could result in damage to your chair or in serious
injury or death.
• Avoid leaning over the side or back of your wheelchair to extend your reach. Leaning over
chair could change its center of gravity and cause an unstable situation resulting in a fall
or tip-over. A tip-over or fall could result in damage to your chair or in serious injury or
death.
• Do not lift wheelchair by its removable parts while occupied. Lifting a wheelchair by
removable parts - e.g. armrests or footrests - while occupied could cause user to fall or
lose control. A fall or loss of control could result in damage to your chair or in serious
injury or death.
WARNING: Do not use or install this Axiom Custom Seating without first reading and
understanding this manual. Please contact your authorized Ki Mobility supplier or your
clinician if you are unable to understand the Warnings and Instructions. Failure to do so
could result in serious injury or death.
WARNING: The installation of an Axiom Custom Seating on a wheelchair could affect the
center of gravity of the wheelchair. Changes in your center of gravity may affect your
stability in your wheelchair, resulting in tipping over or falling from your wheelchair which
may result in serious injury. Always review the instructions for use of your wheelchair to
see if changes to the wheelchair may be needed to provide sufficient stability after adding
an Axiom Back.

medical condition, including the use of this product. Be sure to follow any skin care
regimens established by your clinician. Consumers of this product should make sure their
