CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION! Never hose off your power chair or place it in direct contact with water. Your Jet 1 has
a painted, ABS plastic body shroud that allows it to be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth.
CAUTION! Never use any chemicals to clean a vinyl seat, as they may cause the seat to become
slippery or dry out and crack. Use soapy water and dry the seat thoroughly.
TIRES AND TUBES
If your Jet 1 is equipped with pneumatic tires, you should check the air pressure at least once per week. This
will prolong the life of your tires as well as help ensure the perfect operation of your chair. If you should have
a flat tire, you should replace the tube. Replacement tires and tubes are readily available at your authorized
Pride provider.
WARNING! To avoid possible injury, be sure that the controller’s power is turned off and the power
chair is not in freewheel mode before performing this procedure.
WARNING! Completely deflate the tire before attempting repair.
