STORAGE
Your power chair should be stored in a dry place, free from temperature extremes. When storing, disconnect
the batteries from the Jet 2. See IX. “Batteries and Charging.”

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION! Never hose off your Jet 2 or place it in direct contact with water. Your Jet 2 has a clear-
coated, ABS plastic body shroud that allows it to be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth.
CAUTION! Never use any chemicals to clean a vinyl seat, as they may cause the seat to become
slippery or dry out and crack. Use soapy water and dry the seat thoroughly.
Tire/Wheel Replacement
Your power chair may be equipped with either pneumatic or solid tires. If you have pneumatic tires and you have
a flat tire, you can replace the tube. If your chair is equipped with a solid tire insert, then you must replace the whole
wheel assembly. Replacement tires, tubes, and wheel assemblies are readily available through your authorized
Pride provider.
WARNING! To avoid possible injury, be sure that the controller’s power is turned off and the power
chair is not in freewheel mode before performing this procedure.
WARNING! Completely deflate the tire before attempting repair.
Follow these easy steps for a quick and safe wheel replacement:
1. Place blocks under the power base frame for support.
2. Use a 5/32-in. hex key to remove the hub cap. See figure 25.
3. Use an 11/16-in. wrench to remove the drive wheel nut from the center hub of the wheel. See figure 26.
4. Pull the wheel assembly off of the axle.
5. Replace the tire tube (if pneumatic.)
6. Slide the wheel assembly back onto the axle.
7. Install the drive wheel nut into the center hub and tighten.
8. Install the hubcap.
