GENERAL

MANDATORY! Do not operate your new PMV for the first time without completely reading and understanding this owner’s manual.

Your PMV is a state-of-the-art life-enhancement device designed to increase mobility. Pride provides an extensive variety of products to best fit the individual needs of the PMV user. Please be aware that the final selection and purchasing decision regarding the type of PMV to be used is the responsibility of the PMV user who is capable of making such a decision and his/her healthcare professional (i.e., medical doctor, physical therapist, etc.).

The contents of this manual are based on the expectation that a mobility device expert has properly fitted the PMV to the user and has assisted the prescribing healthcare professional and/or the authorized Pride Provider in the instruction process for the use of the product.

There are certain situations, including some medical conditions, where the PMV user will need to practice operating the PMV in the presence of a trained attendant. A trained attendant can be defined as a family member or care professional specially trained in assisting a PMV user in various daily living activities.

As you begin using your PMV during daily activities, you will probably encounter situations in which you will need some practice. Simply take your time and you will soon be in full and confident control as you maneuver through doorways, on and off lifts, up and down ramps, and over moderate terrain.

Below are some precautions, tips, and other safety considerations that will you become accustomed to operating the PMV safely.

MODIFICATIONS

Pride has designed and engineered your PMV to provide maximum mobility and utility. However, under no circumstances should you modify, add, remove, or disable any feature, part, or function of your PMV.

WARNING! Do not modify your PMV in any way not authorized by Pride. Do not use accessories if they have not been tested or approved for Pride products.

REMOVABLE PARTS

WARNING! Do not attempt to lift or move your PMV by any of its removable parts, including the armrests, seat, or shroud.

PRE-RIDE SAFETY CHECK

Get to know the feel of your PMV and its capabilities. Pride recommends that you perform a safety check before each use to make sure your PMV operates smoothly and safely.
