  • Page 8 I I . S A F E T Y GENERAL MANDATORY! Do not operate your new Travel Scooter for the first time without completely reading and understanding this owner’s manual. Your Travel Scooter is a state-of-the-art life-enhancement device designed to increase mobility.

  • Page 9 I I . S A F E T Y Perform the following inspections prior to using your scooter: Check for proper tire inflation. Maintain but do not exceed the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on each tire if equipped with pneumatic tires. Check all electrical connections.
  • Page 10 I I . S A F E T Y When climbing an incline, try to keep your Travel Scooter moving. If you must stop, start up again slowly, and then accelerate cautiously. When driving down an incline, do so by setting the speed adjustment dial to the slowest setting and driving in the forward direction only.
  • Page 11 I I . S A F E T Y When you approach an incline, it is best to lean forward. See figures 2 and 2A. This shifts the center of gravity of you and your Travel Scooter toward the front of the Travel Scooter for improved stability. NOTE: When negotiating ramps, if the throttle control lever is released while moving forward, the powered Travel Scooter may "rollback"...
  • Page 12 I I . S A F E T Y OUTDOOR DRIVING SURFACES Your Travel Scooter is designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving conditions—dry, level surfaces composed of concrete, blacktop, or asphalt. However, Pride recognizes that there will be times when you will encounter other surface types.
  • Page 13 I I . S A F E T Y INCLEMENT WEATHER PRECAUTIONS Exposure of your Travel Scooter to inclement weather conditions should be avoided whenever possible. If suddenly caught up in rain, snow, severe cold or heat while operating your Travel Scooter, proceed to shelter at the earliest opportunity.
  • Page 14 I I . S A F E T Y ELEVATORS Modern elevators have a door edge safety mechanism that, when pushed, reopens the door(s). 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 the Travel Scooter and the door will reopen.
  • Page 15 I I . S A F E T Y MOTOR VEHICLE TRANSPORT Pride recommends that you do not remain seated in your Travel Scooter while traveling in a motor vehicle. The Travel Scooter should be stowed in the trunk of a car or in the back of a truck or van with the batteries removed and properly secured.
  • Page 16 I I . S A F E T Y REACHING AND BENDING Avoid reaching or bending while driving your Travel Scooter. Bending forward creates the risk of accidental throttle control lever contact. Bending to the side while seated creates the risk of tipping. It is important to maintain a stable centre of gravity and keep the Travel Scooter from tipping.

However, most of the prob- lems that may arise can usually be solved with a bit of thought and common sense. Many of these problems occur because the batteries are not fully charged or because the batteries are worn down and can no longer hold a charge.
  • Page 34 V I I I . B A S I C T R O U B L E S H O O T I N G What if the Travel Scooter’s batteries won’t charge? Check the fuse located on the battery pack. Replace if necessary.

  • Page 35 I X . C A R E A N D M A I N T E N A N C E Your Travel Scooter requires a minimal amount of care and maintenance. If you do not feel confident in your ability to perform the maintenance listed below, you may schedule inspection and maintenance at your authorized Pride Provider.
  • Page 36 I X . C A R E A N D M A I N T E N A N C E WIRING HARNESSES Regularly check all wiring connections. Regularly check all wiring insulation, including the charger power cord, for wear or damage.
