General Warnings
Before You Use Your MPV5
Before You Use Your MPV5
The Hoveround
operation of the power wheelchair requires you to exercise caution and
consideration for your personal safety and the safety of others around
you. Never modify your wheelchair, and do not use accessories other
than those developed for use specifically with your Hoveround MPV5
power wheelchair. Information about the design of ramps appropriate
for wheelchair access for your home are contained in guidance from
the Americans with Disabilities Act, which can be located at
http://www.accessboard.gov/adaag/html/adaag.htm.
The lists below detail some important safety warnings. Please read
this entire manual thoroughly, and follow all warnings and instructions
to avoid serious injury or death. Call toll free 1-800-96-HOVER
(1-800-964-6837) if you require further assistance. Your "Safety
and Training video" illustrates many of the concepts in the
manual. Keep your manual to refer to when needed.
To avoid serious injury or death:
1. Always use the seat belt.
2. Always ensure that the power is OFF before getting
into and out of the seat.
3. Always set the joystick/controller speed/response control
to be consistent with the surrounding environment. In
confined spaces and while learning to drive your power
wheelchair, we recommend that the speed/response
control be set to minimum.
