    I I . S A F E T Y GENERAL WARNING! Do not operate your new scooter for the first time without completely reading and understanding this owner’s manual. Your Scooter is a state-of-the-art life-enhancement device designed to increase mobility. Pride provides an exten- sive variety of products to best fit the individual needs of the scooter user.
  • Page 7 I I . S A F E T Y PRE-RIDE SAFETY CHECK Get to know the feel of your scooter and its capabilities. Pride recommends that you perform a safety check before each use to make sure your scooter operates smoothly and safely. For details on how to perform these necessary inspections, see XII.
  • Page 8 I I . S A F E T Y When climbing an incline, try to keep your scooter moving. If you must stop, start up again slowly, and then accelerate cautiously. When driving down an incline, do so by setting the speed adjustment dial to the slowest setting and driving in the forward direction only.
  • Page 9 I I . S A F E T Y When you approach an incline, it is best to lean forward. See figures 2 and 2A. This shifts the center of gravity of you and your scooter toward the front of the scooter for improved stability. Figure 2A.
  • Page 10 I I . S A F E T Y OUTDOOR DRIVING SURFACES Your scooter is designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving conditions—dry, level surfaces com- posed of concrete, blacktop, or asphalt. However, Pride recognizes that there will be times when you will encoun- ter other surface types.
  • Page 11 I I . S A F E T Y INCLEMENT WEATHER PRECAUTIONS WARNING! Pride recommends that you do not operate your scooter 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 safety of your scooter.
  • Page 12 I I . S A F E T Y STAIRS AND ESCALATORS Scooters are not designed to travel up or down stairs or escalators. Always use an elevator. WARNING! Do not use your scooter to negotiate steps or escalators. You may cause injury to yourself and to others and/or damage your scooter.
  • Page 13 I I . S A F E T Y MOTOR VEHICLE TRANSPORT Currently, there are no standards approved for tie-down systems in a moving vehicle of any type to transport a person while seated in a scooter. Although your scooter may be equipped with a positioning belt, this belt is not designed to provide proper restraint during motor vehicle transport.
  • Page 14 I I . S A F E T Y POSITIONING BELTS Your authorized Pride Provider, therapist(s), and other healthcare professionals are responsible for determining your requirement for a positioning belt in order to operate your scooter safely. WARNING! If you require a positioning belt to safely operate your scooter, make sure it is fastened securely.
  • Page 15 I I I . E M I / R F I EMI/RFI WARNINGS Laboratory tests performed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have shown that radio waves can cause unintended motion of electric mobility vehicles. Radio waves are a form of electromagnetic energy (EM). When electromagnetic energy adversely affects the operation of an electrical device, that adverse effect is called Electro- magnetic Interference (EMI) or Radio Frequency Interference (RFI).
  • Page 16: Iii. Emi/Rfi

    I I I . E M I / R F I Are all electric mobility vehicles susceptible to EMI/RFI? Each make and model of electric mobility vehicle differs in its ability to resist EMI/RFI. Every mobility vehicle has a particular level of resistance to EMI/RFI. This resistance is measured in volts per meter (V/m). A higher resis- tance level offers greater protection against EMI/RFI.

    V I . B A T T E R I E S A N D C H A R G I N G FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQS) How does the charger work? When your scooter’s battery voltage is low, the charger works harder and sends more electrical current to the batteries to bring up their charge.
  • Page 25 V I . B A T T E R I E S A N D C H A R G I N G How can I get maximum range or distance per charge? Rarely will you have ideal driving conditions — smooth, flat, hard driving surfaces with no wind or curves. Often, you will face hills, sidewalk cracks, uneven and loosely packed surfaces, curves, and wind.
  • Page 26 V I . B A T T E R I E S A N D C H A R G I N G BATTERY DISPOSAL AND RECYCLING If you encounter a damaged or cracked battery, immediately enclose it in a plastic bag and call your authorized Pride Provider for instructions on disposal.

    X I . B A S I C T R O U B L E S H O O T I N G Any electromechanical device occasionally requires some troubleshooting. However, most of the problems that may arise can usually be solved with a bit of thought and common sense. Many of these problems occur because the batteries are not fully charged or because the batteries are worn down and can no longer hold a charge.
