30、 5.2. NOTE 1 The framework of the chair, or the footboard or footrest, should minimize the risk of the users feet moving backwards behind the footboard or footrest. NOTE 2 The footboard or footrest should have a surface designed to minimize slipping of the users feet, especially if the chair is inte

31、nded for use also as a shower chair. If the footboard or footrest can be adjusted or moved from one position to another, provision shall be made to locate and lock it securely in any operating position. If the height of the footboard or footrest can be adjusted, it shall have increment adjustments n

32、ot exceeding 25 mm. If the sanitary chair is fitted with a separate footrest for each foot, the gap between the footrests shall not exceed: 35 mm for sanitary chairs intended for adults; 25 mm for sanitary chairs intended for children. NOTE 3 Means such as pivots, hinges or a sliding mechanism may b

33、e provided to enable the footboard or footrest to be retracted or moved out of the way without the need for removal, so as to facilitate entering or leaving the chair.
