YEARLY CHECKS
Take your power chair to an authorised Pride Provider for yearly maintenance. This helps to ensure that your
power chair is functioning properly and helps prevent future complications.
STORAGE
Your power chair should be stored in a dry place, free from temperature extremes. When storing, disconnect the
batteries from the power chair. See VIII. "Batteries and Charging."
WARNING! If you fail to store the unit properly, the frame can rust and the electronics can
be damaged.
CLEANING PRECAUTIONS
WARNING! Never hose off your power chair or place it in direct contact with water. Your
power chair has a painted, ABS plastic body shroud that allows it to be easily wiped clean
with a damp cloth.
WARNING! 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.
Your power chair, like most electrical equipment, is susceptible to damage from the elements. Avoid damp areas of
any kind.
WARNING! Direct exposure to water or dampness could cause the power chair to
malfunction electronically and mechanically. Water can cause electrical components to
corrode and the chair's frame to rust.
TYRES AND TUBES
If your power chair is equipped with pneumatic tyres, you should check the air pressure at least once a week. This
prolongs the life of your tyres and helps to ensure the perfect operation of your chair. If you have a flat tyre, replace the
tube. Replacement tyres and tubes are readily available through the provider where you purchased your power chair.
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 tyre before attempting repair.
