Your therapist and physician should be consulted if you have questions regarding individual limitations and needs. All cushions should be selected carefully. Working with your therapist and physician is the best way to assure that a cushion choice matches your individual needs. As the needs of the individual become more complex, cushion evaluation becomes more important. Invacare Matrx Flo-tech The Invacare Matrx Flo-tech cushion uses a combination of molded foam and dual layer fluid sacs to provide the highest level of skin protection for users with high risk of skin breakdown. Outer Cover Inner Liner Fluid Sac The fluid sac utilizes a unique dual-layer fluid design in the ishcial/sacral areas to help prevent bottoming out. Fluid Sac Inner Liner and Outer Cover Foam Base The inner liner is moisture resistant to protect the foam. The outer cover is water resistant and breathable. Regular cleaning and inspection of the covers is recommended. Refer to Care and Maintenance on page 3. Part No 1171791 1 Invacare® Matrx® Flo-tech 2 Safety Check ALL parts for shipping damage.

IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO UNDERSTAND THE WARNINGS, CAUTIONS OR INSTRUCTIONS, CONTACT A HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL, DEALER OR TECHNICAL PERSONNEL BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO USE THIS EQUIPMENT - OTHERWISE, INJURY OR DAMAGE MAY OCCUR. ACCESSORIES WARNING Invacare products are specifically designed and manufactured for use in conjunction with Invacare accessories.

INSTALLATION WARNING After any adjustments, repair or service and before use, make sure that all attaching component parts are secure. Ensure the seat cushion is properly secured to the wheelchair before using. Otherwise injury or damage may occur. Installing a cushion on a wheelchair may affect the center of gravity of the wheelchair and may cause the wheelchair to become unstable, potentially resulting in injury. WARNING Skin condition should be checked very frequently after the installation of any new seating system. Your therapist and physician should be consulted if you have any questions regarding individual limitations and needs. Working with your therapist, physician, and equipment supplier is the best way to assure that a seating choice matches your individual needs. As the needs of the individual become more complex, the seating evaluation becomes more important. The cushion is designed to be used only at room temperature. If it is left at lower temperatures, always allow it to warm to room temperature before using. Sitting on extremely cold or hot surfaces can cause skin damage. Avoid sharp objects or exposure to excessive heat or open flame. 2.3 Weight Limitation and Model Numbers Refer to the chart for the weight limitation and stock model numbers.
