Driving In Reverse - Pride Mobility Celebirty The Ultimate In Style & Performance Owner's Manual

Other inclines may be natural or man-made, and not designed specifically for Scooters. Figures 1 and 2 illustrate
your Celebrity’s stability and its ability to climb grades under various weight loads and under controlled testing
conditions.
These tests were conducted with the Celebrity’s seat in the highest position and adjusted backward on the seat
base to its farthest rearward position. Use this information as a guideline. Your Celebrity’s ability to travel up
inclines is affected by your weight, your Scooter’s speed, your angle of approach to the incline, and your Scooter
setup.
n When you approach an incline, it is best to lean forward. See figures 3 and 4. This shifts the center of gravity
of you and your Celebrity toward the front of the Scooter for improved stability.
WARNING! Do not exceed the incline guidelines or any other specifications presented in this
owner’s manual.

DRIVING SURFACES
Your Celebrity was designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving conditions—dry, level surfaces
composed of concrete or asphalt. However, Pride recognizes that there will be times when you will operate your
Celebrity on surfaces other than concrete or asphalt. For that reason, we also designed your Celebrity to perform
admirably on packed soil, grass, and gravel. Feel free to use your Celebrity safely on grounds and in park areas.
n Avoid tall grass that can become entangled in the running gear.
n Packed soil, gravel, driveways, or roads will not present a problem for your Celebrity.
n Avoid loosely packed gravel and sand.
n If you feel unsure about a driving surface, avoid that surface.
