Pride Mobility Legend Classic 3-Wheel Scooter Owner's Manual page 13

MOTOR VEHICLE TRANSPORT
Currently, there are no standards approved for tie-down systems in a moving vehicle of any type to transport a
person while seated in a Legend Classic.
Although your scooter may be equipped with a positioning belt, this belt is not designed to provide proper restraint
during motor vehicle transport. Anyone traveling in a motor vehicle should be properly secured in the motor vehicle
seat with safety belts fastened securely.
WARNING! Do not sit on your scooter while it is in a moving vehicle. Personal injury and/or property
damage may result.
WARNING! Always be sure your scooter and its batteries are properly secured when it is being
transported. Failure to do so may result in personal injury and/or damage to your Legend Classic.
GETTING ONTO AND OFF OF YOUR SCOOTER
Getting onto and off of your scooter requires a good sense of balance. Please observe the following safety tips
when getting onto and off of your scooter:
n Ensure that your scooter is not in freewheel mode. See IV. “Your Legend Classic.”
n Make certain that the seat is locked into place and the key is removed from the key switch.
n The seat armrests can be flipped up to make getting onto and off of the scooter easier.
WARNING! Position yourself as far back as possible in the scooter seat to prevent the scooter from
tipping and causing injury.
WARNING! Avoid using your armrests for weight bearing purposes. Such use may cause the
scooter to tip and cause personal injury.
WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the floorboard. Such use may cause the scooter to tip
and cause personal injury.
POSITIONING BELTS
Your authorised Pride provider, therapist(s), and other healthcare professionals are responsible for determining
your requirement for a positioning belt in order to operate your scooter safely.
WARNING! If you require a positioning belt to safely operate your Legend Classic, make sure it is
fastened securely. Serious personal injury may result if you fall from the Legend Classic.
