    Pride products. Pre-Ride Safety Check Get to know the feel of your power chair and its capabilities. Pride recommends that you perform a safety check before each use to make sure your power chair operates smoothly and safely.
  • Page 10 Your power chair is rated for a maximum weight capacity. Please refer to the specifications table for this limit. MANDATORY! Stay within the specified weight capacity of your power chair. Exceeding the weight capacity voids your warranty. Pride will not be held responsible for injuries and/or property damage resulting from failure to observe weight limitations.
  • Page 11 Doing so could cause instability in your power chair. Pride recommends that the maximum slope of an incline you attempt to safely ascend or descend on your power chair does not exceed 8.7% (5°). See figure 1.
  • Page 12 Your power chair is designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving conditions—dry, level surfaces composed of concrete, blacktop or tarmac. However, Pride recognises that there will be times when you will encounter other surface types. For this reason, your power chair is designed to perform admirably on packed soil, grass and gravel. Feel free to use your power chair safely on lawns and in park areas.
  • Page 13 If your power chair is rated for use as a seat in a motor vehicle, Pride recommends that you ensure your authorised dealer or healthcare professional has properly configured the power chair and positioning belt for such use.
  • Page 14 Never reach, lean or bend while driving your power chair. If it is absolutely necessary to reach, lean or bend while seated on your power chair, it is important to maintain a stable centre of gravity and keep the power chair from tipping. Pride recommends that the power chair user determine his/her personal limitations and practice bending and reaching in the presence of a qualified healthcare professional.
  • Page 15 User Positioning Pride recommends that all users be seated in an upright position with their pelvis positioned as far rearward as possible in the power chair seat. All users need to discuss pelvic positioning with their authorised Pride Dealer, therapist(s) or healthcare profes- sional to determine appropriate pelvic position when seated on the power chair based on the user’s individual medical needs.
  • Page 16 WARNING! Pride strongly recommends that you do not smoke cigarettes while seated in your power chair, although the power chair has passed the necessary testing requirements for cigarette smoking.
  • Page 17 THE JAZZY SELECT 6 The Jazzy Select 6 has two main assemblies: the seat assembly and the power base assembly. See figure 5.

  • Page 21 C H A I R Manual Freewheel Levers The Jazzy Select 6 has a manual freewheel lever on each motor. Manual freewheel levers enable you to disengage the drive motors from the gearboxes and manoeuvre the chair manually. WARNING! Do not use the power chair while the drive motors are disengaged! Do not disengage the drive motors when the power chair is on an incline or decline, as the unit could roll on its own.

    WARNING! Do not allow unsupervised children to play near the power chair while the batteries are charging. Pride recommends that you do not charge the batteries while the power chair is occupied. WARNING! If your battery charger has not been tested and approved for outdoor use, then do not expose it to adverse or extreme weather conditions.
  • Page 30 6. Plug the off-board charger into the electrical outlet. NOTE: If it is a Pride off-board charger, then there are two lights in it. The red light indicates that power to the off-board charger is on. The green light indicates that the batteries are fully charged. If it is not a Pride off- board charger, then follow the instructions supplied by the manufacturer.
  • Page 31 We work closely with our battery manufacturer to provide a battery that best suits your power chair’s specific demands. Fresh batteries arrive regularly at Pride and are promptly shipped with a full charge. During shipping, the batteries encoun- ter temperature extremes that may influence initial performance. Heat robs the charge from the battery, and cold slows the power available and extends the time needed to recharge the battery (just as with a car battery).
  • Page 32 What about shipping? If you wish to use a freight company to ship your power chair to your final destination, repack your power chair in the original shipping container and ship the batteries in separate boxes. www.pridemobility.com Jazzy Select 6...
