n Use a rubber conditioner on the tire sidewalls to help preserve them.
WARNING! Never use a rubber conditioner on the tread area of the tires; doing so may make the
tires slippery and cause your Jazzy to skid.
n The body shroud has been sprayed with a clear sealant coating. You can apply a light coat of car wax to
help it retain its high-gloss appearance.
n Check all electrical connections. Make sure they are tight and are not corroded. Batteries must sit flat
within the battery well, with the battery terminals facing inward, toward each other. Refer to the frame
decal for the correct wiring layout.
n All wheel bearings are prelubricated and sealed. They require no subsequent lubrication.
DAILY CHECKS
n With the controller turned off, check the joystick. Make sure it is not bent or damaged and that it returns
to the center when you release it. Check the rubber boot around the base of the joystick for damage.
Visually inspect the boot. Do not handle or try to repair it. See your authorized Pride provider if there
is a problem.
n Visually inspect the controller harnesses. Make sure that they are not frayed or cut or have any wires
exposed. See your Pride provider if there is a problem with any of these harnesses.
WEEKLY CHECKS
n Disconnect and inspect the controller and the charger harnesses from the utility tray. Look for corro-
sion. Contact your authorized Pride provider if necessary.
n Ensure that all parts of the controller system are securely fastened to your Jazzy. Do not overtighten
any screws.
n Check for proper tire inflation. There should be 30 – 35 psi in each tire. If a tire does not hold air, see
your Pride provider for replacement of the tube.
n Calibrate the joystick if a noticeable difference in performance is detected or if the joystick does not
operate properly.
n Check the brakes. This test should be carried out on a level surface with at least three feet of clearance
around your Jazzy.
To check the brakes:
1. Turn on the controller and turn down the speed response adjustment knob.
2. After one second, check the battery gauge. Make sure that it remains on.
3. Slowly push the joystick forward until you hear the electric brakes click. Immediately release the joy-
stick. You must be able to hear each electrical brake operating by a “clicking” sound within a few
seconds of joystick movement. Repeat this test three times, pushing the joystick backwards, then left,
and then right.
MONTHLY CHECKS
n Check that the anti-tip wheels do not rub the ground when you are operate the Jazzy. Adjust them as
necessary. See VI. “Comfort Adjustments” in this manual.
n Check for extreme wear on the anti-tip wheels. Replace them as necessary.
n Check for drive tire wear. See an authorized Pride provider for repair.
