Invacare - XLT Wheelchair
An Urgent Field Safety Notice has been issued for the Invacare XLT wheelchair
According to the manufacturers, some of the configurations are not suitable to be used as seat in transportation
and the risk for injury during an incident increases when the wheelchair is fitted with a low backrest.
Invacare strongly advise against the use of XLT as a seat in a vehicle if the backrest is lower
than 40 cm. Owners of XLT wheelchairs with backrests lower than 40 cm are being advised to cover
the “hook” label with a warning label. The warning label is provided by Invacare customer service.
