Elevators

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

νIf 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 power chair and the door will reopen.

νUse care that pocketbooks, packages, or power chair accessories do not become caught in elevator doors.

EMI & RFI

Laboratory tests performed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have shown that radio waves can cause unintended motion of electric mobility vehicles. Radio waves are a form of electromagnetic energy (EM). When EM adversely affects the operation of an electronic device, it is called Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) or Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). For more information, see III. “EMI/RFI.”

Lift/Elevation Products

If you will be traveling with your power chair, 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 information set forth by the manufacturer of the lift/elevation product before using that product.

Motor Vehicle Transport

Currently, there are no standards approved for tie-down systems in a moving vehicle of any type to transport a person while seated in a power chair.

Transfers

Transferring onto and off of your power chair requires a good sense of balance. Always have an attendant or healthcare professional present while learning to properly transfer yourself.

To eliminate the possibility of injury, Pride recommends that you or a trained attendant perform the following tasks before attempting a transfer:

νTurn the power off. See VIII. “Operation.”

νEnsure your power chair is not in freewheel mode. See IV. “The Jazzy 1105.”

νTurn both caster wheels toward the transfer destination to improve power chair stability during transfer.

νMake sure both armrests are flipped up or removed from your power chair.

νFlip the footrest up, or move the leg rests aside; this will help to keep your feet from getting caught on the footrest or the leg rests during the transfer.

νReduce the distance between your power chair and the object you are transferring onto.

WARNING! Before transferring, position yourself as far back as possible in the power chair seat to prevent the power chair from tipping forward during transfer and causing injury.

WARNING! Avoid using your armrests for weight bearing purposes. Such use may cause the power chair to tip and cause personal injury.

WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the footrest. Such use may cause the power chair to tip and cause personal injury.
