Description

WHAT IS THIS PRODUCT?

The Car Seat Slide Pads are designed to assist a person when getting into and out of a vehicle.

The product consists of a top and bottom pad that slide over each other, rather than rotating like traditional swivel cushions. The pad can be positioned towards the edge of the seat, allowing the user to sit down, slide into position, and then turn to face forward.

Unlike some swivel cushions, the Car Seat Slide Pads help maintain position when correctly used in the centre of the seat. They can be used on either the front passenger seat or rear seat. Integrated side handles assist with standing transfers.

WHO IS THIS PRODUCT SUITABLE FOR?

Suitable for people who require assistance when transferring into and out of a vehicle.

BRIEF INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Place the Car Seat Slide Pads on the seat and secure the grey strap around the back of the seat. Attach the lime green strap buckle nearest the car door.

Rotate the top pad with handle 90° and position it near the edge of the seat. The user should sit on the pad near the edge, taking care to remain stable. They then slide into the centre of the seat and turn to face forward.

Secure the lime green strap inside the vehicle to help stabilise the pad and reduce forward sliding during braking.

To exit, release the lime green strap inside the vehicle. Assist the user to turn so their legs are outside the car if required. Use the handles to assist with standing.

WHAT IS THIS PRODUCT MADE FROM?

Velour, webbing, nylon, plastic buckle.

How to thread a buckle: It is vital that a buckle is threaded on the webbing strap correctly. Incorrect fitting could result in the product not performing as expected, and may put the users at risk of injury. Click here to see our video demonstrating how to thread a new buckle onto the webbing.

What is the difference between the Car Seat Slide Pad, the Car Roller Sheet, and the Handi Soft Turn Pad?

All of these items are car seat turning aids used to help people get in and out of cars. By far the best one is the Car Seat Slide Pad because it slides the best when it has weight on it. The Handi Soft Turn Pad can sometimes be a bit of a struggle to turn if the person does not sit in the centre of the Pad. The Car Roller Sheet has more or less been superseded by the Car Seat Slide Pad.
