LIFTS
Modern lifts have a door edge safety mechanism that, when pushed, reopens the door(s).
! If you are in the doorway of a lift when the door(s) begin to close, push on the rubber door edge or allow
the rubber door edge to contact the scooter and the door will reopen.
! Use care that handbags, packages or scooter accessories do not become caught in lift doors.
NOTE: If your scooter's turning radius is greater than 152.5 cm (60 in.), it may be difficult to manoeu-
vre in lifts and building entrances. Use caution when attempting to turn or manoeuvre your scooter in
small spaces and avoid areas that might pose a problem.
LIFT/ELEVATION PRODUCTS
If you will be traveling with your scooter, you may find it necessary to use a lift/elevation product to aid in
transportation. Pride recommends that you closely review the instructions, specifications and safety infor-
mation set forth by the manufacturer of the lift/elevation product before using that product.
WARNING! Never sit on your scooter when it is being used in connection with any type of
lift/elevation product. Your scooter was not designed with such use in mind and any damage
or injury incurred from such use is not the responsibility of Pride.
BATTERIES
In addition to following the warnings below, be sure to comply with all other battery handling information.
WARNING! Scooter batteries are heavy (refer to specifications table). Lifting weight beyond
your capacity could result in personal injury. If necessary, get someone physically able
to lift the scooter batteries for you.
WARNING! Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead
compounds. Wash hands after handling.
WARNING! Always protect the batteries from freezing and never charge a frozen battery.
Charging a frozen battery may result in personal injury and/or damage to the battery.
WARNING! RED (+) cables must be connected to positive (+) battery terminals/posts.
BLACK (-) cables must be connected to negative (-) battery terminals/posts. Failure to
connect your battery harnesses in the proper manner may result in personal injury and/or
damage to your scooter. REPLACE cables immediately if damaged.
NOTE: If you encounter a damaged or cracked battery, immediately enclose it in a plastic bag and call
your authorised Pride Dealer for instructions on disposal. Your authorised Pride Dealer will also have
the necessary information on battery recycling, which is our recommended course of action.
