Prescription Drugs/Physical Limitations

Users must exercise care and common sense when operating a wheelchair. This includes awareness of safety issues when taking prescribed or over-the-counter drugs or when the user has specific physical limitations.

WARNING! Consult your physician if you are taking prescribed or over-the-counter medication or if you have certain physical limitations. Some medications and limitations may impair your ability to operate your wheelchair in a safe manner.

Alcohol/Smoking

The wheelchair user must exercise care and common sense when operating his/her wheelchair. This includes awareness of safety issues while under the influence of alcohol or while smoking.

WARNING! Do not operate your wheelchair while you are under the influence of alcohol, as this may impair your ability to operate your wheelchair in a safe manner.

WARNING! Pride strongly recommends that you do not smoke cigarettes while seated in your wheelchair, although the wheelchair has passed the necessary testing requirements for cigarette smoking. You must adhere to the following safety guidelines if you decide to smoke cigarettes while seated in your wheelchair.

Do not leave lit cigarettes unattended.

Keep ashtrays a safe distance from the seat cushions.

Always make sure cigarettes are completely extinguished before disposal.
