COMFORT ADJUSTMENTS

After becoming familiar with your power chair's operation, you may find the need to make some adjustments to increase
your comfort, such as seat height and angle, armrest angle, foot platform height and angle and controller position.
NOTE: If your power chair is equipped with a Synergy Seat or TRU-Balance Power Positioning System, refer
to the information provided in separate manuals. If your power chair is equipped with a medium-back, a high-
back or a reclining seat, refer to the following information.
WARNING! The centre of gravity of your power chair was factory set to a position that meets the
needs of the demographic majority of users. Your Quantum Rehab Dealer has evaluated your
power chair and made any necessary adjustments to suit your specific requirements. Do not
change your seating configuration without first contacting Pride Mobility Products or your
Quantum Rehab Dealer.
WARNING! Some power chair components are heavy. You may need assistance to lift or carry
them. Please refer to the specifications table for specific component weights before you
disassemble the power chair.
WARNING! Remove the occupant from the power chair before making any adjustments.

2. Unplug the controller connector(s) from the
electronics tray.
3. Flip up the seat latch safety. See figure 14.
4. Squeeze the seat latch and release the seat from the
front trapeze bar.

base.

(front and rear). See figure 15.
