Fitting the inner cushion in the outer cover
• Remove the clear plastic wrapping.
• Fully open the zipper in the outer cover.
• Insert the inner cushion in the outer cover. The instruction pictograms on the
cushion must face down. The valve must be in the rear right corner and face up.
• Close the zipper in the outer cover. Make sure not to damage the inner cushion.
• Always use the cushion with the outer cover in place.
Fitting the pelvic stabilizer
The pelvic stabilizer is meant to be used with the Liberty PT model.
• Fully open the zipper in the outer cover.
• Slide the pelvic stabilizer between the inner cushion and the bottom side of the
outer cover. The instructions on the pelvic stabilizer must face up.
• Fasten the two elastic bands over the ends of the pelvic stabilizer (fig. A).
• Close the outer cover.
INSTALLATION
Vicair recommends installation and adjustment of the Liberty cushion under the direct
supervision of your therapist or dealer.
• Make sure that the wheelchair seat is clean and degreased.
• Remove the protective backing tape from the self-adhesive Velcro strips.
• Place the cushion on the seat of your wheelchair and push it down firmly. Make sure
the label faces down and to the back of your wheelchair (fig. B). To remove the
cushion from the wheelchair seat, simply pull it off the Velcro strips.
• Slightly open the zipper in the outer cover, so the valve can be reached.
• Open the valve.
• Sit on the cushion for a few minutes, to allow the air content in the cushion to adapt
to your body shape and weight.
• After a few minutes, close the air valve and push it down. Close the outer cover.
• If necessary, adjust the footrests of your wheelchair. Your feet should just rest on
them while your thighs are in full contact with the cushion.
When you prefer not to use the Velcro, you can simply remove the self-adhesive
Velcro strips. Note that the strips confected to the bottom of the cover cannot be
removed.
