MOTOR VEHICLE TRANSPORT

Pride recommends that you do not remain seated in your scooter while traveling in a motor vehicle. The scooter should be stowed in the trunk of a car or in the back of a truck or van with batteries removed and properly secured. In addition, all removable scooter parts, including the armrests, seat, and shroud should be removed and/or properly secured during motor vehicle transport.

WARNING! Although your scooter may be equipped with a positioning belt, this belt is not designed to provide proper restraint during motor vehicle transport. Anyone traveling in a motor vehicle should be properly secured in the motor vehicle seat with safety belts fastened securely.

WARNING! Do not sit on your scooter while it is in a moving vehicle.

WARNING! Always be sure your scooter and its batteries are properly secured when it is being transported. Batteries should be secured in an upright position and protective caps should be installed on the battery terminals. Batteries should not be transported with any flammable or combustible items.

GETTING ONTO AND OFF OF YOUR SCOOTER

Getting onto and off of your scooter requires a good sense of balance. Please observe the following safety tips when getting onto and off of your scooter:

Remove the key from the key switch.

Ensure that your scooter is not in freewheel mode. See III. “Your Scooter.” Make certain that the seat is fixed into place.

Pivot the armrests up to make getting onto and off of the scooter easier.

WARNING! Position yourself as far back as possible in the scooter seat to prevent the scooter from tipping.

WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the scooter armrests and do not use the armrests for weight bearing purposes, such as transfers. Such use may cause the scooter to tip, resulting in a fall from the scooter.

WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the floorboard. Such use may cause the scooter to tip.

REACHING AND BENDING

Avoid reaching or bending while driving your scooter. Bending forward creates the risk of accidental throttle control lever contact. Bending to the side while seated creates the risk of tipping. It is important to maintain a stable center of gravity and keep the scooter from tipping. Pride recommends that the scooter user determine his/her personal limitations and practice bending and reaching in the presence of a qualified attendant.

WARNING! Do not bend, lean, or reach for objects if you have to pick them up from the scooter deck or from either side of the scooter. Movements such as these may change your center of gravity and the weight distribution of the scooter and cause your scooter to tip.

PROHIBITED! Keep your hands away from the tires when driving. Be aware that loose fitting clothing can become caught in drive tires.
