Alcohol/Smoking

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

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

WARNING! Pride strongly recommends that you do not smoke cigarettes while seated in your Z- Chair, although the travel chair 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 Z-Chair.

!Do not leave lit cigarettes unattended.

!Keep ashtrays a safe distance from the seat cushions.

!Always make sure cigarettes are completely extinguished before disposal.

Electromagnetic and Radio Frequency Interference (EMI/RFI)

WARNING! Laboratory tests have shown that electromagnetic and radio frequency waves can have an adverse affect on the performance of electrically-powered mobility vehicles.

Electromagnetic and Radio Frequency Interference can come from sources such as cellular phones, mobile two-way radios (such as walkie-talkies), radio stations, TV stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, wireless computer links, microwave signals, paging transmitters, and medium-range mobile transceivers used by emergency vehicles. In some cases, these waves can cause unintended movement or damage to the control system. Every electrically-powered mobility vehicle has an immunity (or resistance) to EMI. The higher the immunity level, the greater the protection against EMI. This product has been tested and has passed at an immunity level of 20 V/m.

WARNING! Be aware that cell phones, two-way radios, laptops and other types of radio transmitters may cause unintended movement of your electrically-powered mobility vehicle due to EMI. Exercise caution when using any of these items while operating your mobility vehicle and avoid coming into close proximity of radio and TV stations.

WARNING! The addition of accessories or components to the electrically-powered mobility vehicle can increase the susceptibility of the vehicle to EMI. Do not modify your travel chair in any way not authorized by Pride.

WARNING! The electrically-powered mobility vehicle itself can disturb the performance of other electrical devices located nearby, such as alarm systems.

NOTE: For further information on EMI/RFI, go to the Resource Center on www.pridemobility.com. If unin- tended motion or brake release occurs, turn your travel chair off as soon as it is safe to do so. Call Pride at 800- 424-8205 to report the incident.
