  • Page 8: Safety

    I I . S A F E T Y When climbing an incline, try to keep your 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 9: Cornering Information

    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 scooter toward the front of the scooter for improved stability. WARNING! Do not exceed the incline guidelines or any other specifications presented in this manual.
  • Page 10: Outdoor Driving Surfaces

    I I . S A F E T Y OUTDOOR DRIVING SURFACES Your Legend is designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving conditions—dry, level surfaces com- posed of concrete, blacktop, or asphalt. However, Pride recognizes that there will be times when you will encoun- ter other surface types.
  • Page 11: Streets And Roadways

    I I . S A F E T Y STREETS AND ROADWAYS WARNING! You should not operate your scooter on public streets and roadways. Be aware that it may be difficult for traffic to see you when you are seated on your scooter. Obey all local pedestrian traffic rules.

    I I . S A F E T Y STAIRS AND ESCALATORS Legends are not designed to travel up or down stairs or escalators. Always use an elevator. WARNING! Do not use your scooter to negotiate steps or escalators. You may cause injury to yourself and to others and damage your Legend.
  • Page 13: Motor Vehicle Transport

    I I . S A F E T Y 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.

  • Page 14: Reaching And Bending

    I I . S A F E T Y REACHING AND BENDING Avoid reaching or bending while driving your Legend. When reaching, bending, or leaning while seated on your Legend, it is important to maintain a stable center of gravity and keep the scooter from tipping. Pride recommends that the scooter user determine his/her personal limitations and practice bending and reaching in the presence of a qualified healthcare professional.
  • Page 15: Emi/Rfi

    I I I . E M I / R F I EMI/RFI WARNINGS Laboratory tests performed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have shown that radio waves can cause unintended motion of electric mobility vehicles. Radio waves are a form of electromagnetic energy (EM). When electromagnetic energy adversely affects the operation of an electrical device, that adverse effect is called Electro- magnetic Interference (EMI) or Radio Frequency Interference (RFI).
  • Page 16 I I I . E M I / R F I Are all electric mobility vehicles susceptible to EMI/RFI? Each make and model of electric mobility vehicle differs in its ability to resist EMI/RFI. Every mobility vehicle has a particular level of resistance to EMI/RFI. This resistance is measured in volts per meter (V/m). A higher resis- tance level offers greater protection against EMI/RFI.

  • Page 24 V I . B A T T E R I E S A N D C H A R G I N G BATTERIES AND CHARGING-FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQS) How does the charger work? When your scooter’s battery voltage is low, the charger works harder and sends more electrical current to the batteries to bring up their charge.
  • Page 25 V I . B A T T E R I E S A N D C H A R G I N G How can I get maximum range or distance per charge? Rarely will you have ideal driving conditions — smooth, flat, hard driving surfaces with no wind or curves. Often, you will face hills, sidewalk cracks, uneven and loosely packed surfaces, curves, and wind.
