ELEVATORS

Modern elevators have a door edge safety mechanism that, when pushed, reopens the door(s).

If you are in the doorway of an elevator when the door(s) begin to close, push on the rubber door edge or allow the rubber door edge to contact the PMV and the door will reopen.

Use care that pocketbooks, packages, or PMV accessories do not become caught in elevator doors.

LIFT/ELEVATION PRODUCTS

If you will be traveling with your PMV, you may find it necessary to use a lift/elevation product to aid in transportation. Pride recommends that you closely review the instructions, specifications, and safety infor- mation set forth by the manufacturer of the lift/elevation product before using that product.

NOTE: If your PMV’s turning radius is greater than 60 in. (152.4 cm), it may be difficult to maneuver in elevators and building entrances. Use caution when attempting to turn or maneuver your PMV in small spaces, and avoid areas that might pose a problem.

WARNING! Never sit on your PMV when it is being used in connection with any type of lift/elevation product. Your PMV was not designed with such use in mind, and any damage or injury incurred from such use is not the responsibility of Pride.

BATTERIES

In addition to following the warnings below, be sure to comply with all other battery handling information.

MANDATORY! PMV batteries are heavy. See specifications table. If you are unable to lift that much weight, be sure to get help. Use proper lifting techniques and avoid lifting beyond your capacity.

WARNING! Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds. Wear goggles and gloves when handling batteries and wash hands after handling.

WARNING! Always protect the batteries from freezing and never charge a frozen battery. Charging a frozen battery may result in damage to the battery.

WARNING! Connect the battery harnesses in the proper manner. RED (+) cables must be connected to positive (+) battery terminals/posts. BLACK (-) cables must be connected to negative (-) battery terminals/posts. Failure to connect your battery harnesses in the proper manner may result in personal injury and/or damage to your PMV. REPLACE cables immediately if damaged.

BATTERY DISPOSAL AND RECYCLING

If you encounter a damaged or cracked battery, immediately enclose it in a plastic bag. Contact your local waste disposal agency or your authorized Pride Provider for instructions on disposal and battery recycling, which is our recommended course of action.

PREVENTING UNINTENDED MOVEMENT

WARNING! If you anticipate being seated in a stationary position for an extended period of time, turn off the power. This will prevent unexpected motion from inadvertent throttle control lever contact.
