Pride Victory XL Owner's Manual page 8

Lift/Elevation Products
If you are going to be traveling with your Scooter, you may find it necessary to use a lift/elevation product to aid in
transportation. Pride recommends that you review closely the instructions and specifications set forth by the
manufacturer of the lift/elevation product for use of 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.
It is imperative that you read this entire manual and understand all of the safety precautions before you attempt to
operate your new Victory XL for the first time.
Drugs and Alcohol
WARNING! Do not operate your Scooter while you are under the influence of alcohol. Alcohol can
impair your ability to operate your Scooter in a safe manner.
WARNING! Consult your physician if you are taking prescribed or over-the-counter medication or if
you have certain physical limitations. Some medications and limitations may impair your ability to
operate your Scooter in a safe manner.
Driving Surfaces
Your Scooter was designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving conditions; dry, level surfaces
composed of concrete or asphalt. However, Pride recognizes that there will be times when you will face surfaces
other than concrete or asphalt. For that reason, we also designed your Scooter to perform admirably on packed
soil, grass, and gravel.
n Feel free to use your Scooter safely on lawns and in park areas.
n Avoid tall grass that can entangle the running gear.
n Packed soil, gravel, driveways, or roads will not present a problem for your Scooter.
n Avoid loosely packed gravel and sand.
n If you feel unsure about a driving surface, avoid that surface.
Doors
n Determine if the door opens toward or away from you.
n Use your hand to turn the knob or push the handle or push-bar.
n Drive slowly forward to push the door open or drive slowly backward to pull the door open.
Elevators
Modern elevators have a door-edge safety mechanism that, when pushed, reopens the elevator door(s).
n If you are in the doorway of an elevator when the door(s) begin to close, push on the rubber door edge or
allow the rubber door edge to contact your Scooter to reopen the door.
n Use care that pocketbooks, packages, or Victory XL accessories do not become caught in the elevator doors.
