  • Page 5: Introduction

    I N T R O D U C T I O N Welcome to Pride Mobility Products, Ltd. (Pride). Congratulations on the purchase of your new Scooter. The Hurricane design combines the most advanced state-of-the-art components with modern, attractive styling. We are certain that the design features and trouble-free operation of your new Scooter will add convenience to your daily living.

  • Page 6: Safety

    Attempting to operate your Scooter in such conditions can damage the electronics and potentially result in loss of control. Do not operate your Hurricane in icy or slippery conditions or on salted surfaces (i.e., walks or roads). Such use may result in an accident, personal injury, or adversely affect the performance and/or safety of your Scooter.

  • Page 7: Doors

    S A F E T Y As you begin to use your Hurricane during your daily activities, you will encounter situations that may require some practice. Simply take your time as you operate your Scooter and you will soon be in full and confident control as you maneuver through doorways, on and off of elevators, up and down ramps, and over moderate terrain.

  • Page 8: Driving Surfaces

    The controlled tests show that, when you approach an incline, it is best to lean forward. See figures 2 and 3. This shifts the center of gravity of you and your Hurricane toward the front of the Scooter for improved stability.

  • Page 17: Batteries And Charging

    Recharge the batteries with the convenient 5-amp onboard battery charger. See figure 8. Two important points to remember are: n Charge your Hurricane’s batteries with the supplied onboard battery charger prior to using it for the first time. n Keep your batteries fully charged to keep your Hurricane running smoothly.

  • Page 18: Frequently Asked Questions (Faqs)

    How does the charger work? When your Hurricane’s battery voltage is low, the charger works harder and sends more electrical current to the batteries to bring up their charge. As the voltage of the batteries approaches a full charge, the charger sends less electrical current to the batteries.
  • Page 19 We recommend deep-cycle batteries that are sealed and maintenance free. Both sealed lead-acid (SLA) and gel cell are deep- cycle batteries that are similar in performance in your Hurricane. Do not use wet-cell batteries, which have removable caps. NOTE: Do not remove the caps from sealed batteries. Water cannot be added to sealed batteries. Cap removal voids the battery warranty and may cause damage to the batteries and to your Hurricane.

Drive slowly at first, and do not travel too far from your home or familiar surroundings until you have become accustomed to your Hurricane’s controls and have properly broken in the batteries.
