Yearly Checks
Take your power chair to your authorized Pride Provider for yearly maintenance. This helps 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 VII. “Batteries and Charging.”
WARNING! If you fail to store the unit properly, the frame can rust and the electronics can be
damaged.

Cleaning Instructions

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.
Tire/Wheel Replacement
If you have pneumatic tires and you have a flat tire, you can replace the tube. If your chair is equipped with a solid tire
insert, then you must replace the whole wheel assembly. Replacement tires, tubes, and wheel assemblies are readily
available through 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.
Follow these easy steps for a quick and safe repair for both pneumatic and solid tires:
1. Turn off the power to the controller.
2. Set the power chair up on blocks.
3. If you are changing a pneumatic tire, completely deflate it
before removing the wheel.
4. Remove the drive wheel nut from the wheel hub. See figure 27.
5. Pull the wheel off the axle.
6. Remove the screws that fasten the two rim halves together.
See figure 24.
7. Remove the old tube from the pneumatic tire and replace it
with a new tube or replace the entire assembly if it is a solid
tire.
8. Screw together the two rim halves.
9. Slide the wheel back onto the shaft. Make sure that the key
is in the axle slot.
10. Reinstall the drive wheel nut onto the wheel hub and tighten.
11. Inflate the pneumatic tire to 35 psi (if equipped with
pneumatic tires).
12. Remove the power chair from the blocks.
