PUBLIC ROADS AND PARKING LOTS

WARNING! You should not operate your scooter on public streets and roadways. Be aware that it may be difficult for traffic to see you when you are seated on your scooter. Obey all local pedestrian traffic rules. Wait until your path is clear of traffic, and then proceed with extreme caution.

NOTE: Safety accessories like reflectors, fluorescent flags, and various lighting packages are available to order from your authorized Pride provider.

INCLEMENT WEATHER PRECAUTIONS

WARNING! Pride recommends that you do not operate your scooter in icy or slippery conditions or on salted surfaces (i.e., walks or roads). Such use may result in an accident, personal injury, or adversely affect the performance and safety of your scooter.

WARNING! Pride recommends that you do not expose your scooter to any type of moisture at any time (rain, snow, mist, or wash). Such exposure can damage your scooter. Never operate your scooter if it has been exposed to moisture until it has dried thoroughly.

FREEWHEEL MODE

Your scooter is equipped with a manual freewheel lever, that when pulled up, allows the scooter to be pushed. For more information about how to place your scooter into and out of freewheel mode, see V. “Your Maxima.”

WARNING! Do not use your scooter in freewheel mode without an attendant present. Personal injury may result.

WARNING! Do not attempt to personally place your scooter in freewheel mode while seated on it. Personal injury may result. Ask an attendant for assistance if necessary.

WARNING! Do not place your scooter in freewheel mode while on an incline. The scooter could roll uncontrollably on its own, causing personal injury.

TIRE INFLATION

If your scooter is equipped with pneumatic tires, you should check or have the air pressure checked at least once a week. Proper inflation pressures will prolong the life of your tires and help ensure the smooth operation of your scooter.

WARNING! It is critically important that pneumatic tires be inflated to 30-35 psi. Do not underinflate or overinflate your tires. Improper tire pressure may result in catastrophic tire and/or wheel failure. Serious personal injury and/or property damage may result.

WARNING! Inflate your scooter drive tires from a regulated air source with an available pressure gauge. Minimum air pressure for scooter drive tires is 30-35 psi. Inflating your tires from an unregu- lated air source could overinflate them, resulting in a burst tire and/or personal injury.
