Care And Maintenance - Pride Victory Viper Owner's Manual

X . C A R E
Your scooter requires a minimal amount of care and maintenance. If you do not feel confident in your
ability to perform the maintenance listed below, you may schedule inspection and maintenance with your
authorised Pride provider.
The following areas require periodic inspection and/or care and maintenance.
TYRE PRESSURE
n We recommend you maintain the tyre pressure at 30-35 psi (2-2.5 bar) for optimum scooter performance.
WARNING! Do not exceed 30-35 psi (2-2.5 bar) in your scooter tyres. Overinflating a tyre can cause
it to explode, possibly resulting in personal injury or damage to your scooter.
TYRE CONDITION AND TREAD WEAR
n Regularly inspect your scooter tyres for signs of wear.
n Use a rubber conditioner on the tyre sidewalls to preserve them.
WARNING! Do not put rubber conditioner on tread area of tyres; the tyres may become
dangerously slippery.
EXTERIOR SURFACES
Bumpers and trim benefit from an occasional application of rubber or vinyl conditioner.
WARNING! Do not use a rubber or vinyl conditioner on a vinyl seat; it may become dangerously
slippery.
BATTERY TERMINAL CONNECTIONS
n Ensure that the terminal connections remain tight and uncorroded.
n Ensure that the batteries sit flat in the battery wells.
n Ensure that the battery terminals face the rear of your scooter.
WIRING HARNESSES
n Check all wiring connections regularly.
n Check all wiring insulation, including the charger power lead, for wear or damage on a regular basis.
n Have any damaged connector, connection, or insulation repaired or replaced by an authorised Pride
service technician before using your scooter.
ABS PLASTIC SHROUDS
Apply a light coat of car wax to the shrouds to help retain their high gloss; the shrouds are formed from
durable ABS plastic and are coated with an advanced formula urethane paint.
