Your scooter requires a minimal amount of care and maintenance. If you do not feel confident in your ability to perform the maintenance listed below, you may schedule inspection and maintenance at your authorized Pride Provider. The following areas require periodic inspection and/or care and maintenance.

TIRE PRESSURE

!If equipped with pneumatic tires, always maintain a proper 30-35 psi tire pressure.

WARNING! It is important that 30-35 psi tire pressure be maintained in pneumatic tires at all times. Do not underinflate or overinflate your tires. Low pressure may result in loss of control, and overinflated tires may burst. Failure to maintain 30-35 psi tire pressure in pneumatic tires at all times may result in tire and/or wheel failure, causing serious personal injury and/or damage to your scooter.

!Regularly inspect your scooter’s tires for signs of wear.

WHEEL REPLACEMENT

If your scooter is equipped with pneumatic tires and you have a flat tire, you can have the tube replaced. If your scooter is equipped with a solid tire insert, either the solid insert or the entire wheel must be replaced depending on model. Contact your authorized Pride Provider for information regarding replacement wheels for your scooter.

WARNING! Prevent personal injury! Completely deflate pneumatic tires before dismantling the rim or attempting repair.

EXTERIOR SURFACES

Bumpers, tires, and trim can benefit from an occasional application of rubber or vinyl conditioner.

WARNING! Do not use a rubber or vinyl conditioner on the scooter’s vinyl seat, floorboard, or tire tread. They will become dangerously slippery and result in personal injury and/or damage to your scooter.

BATTERY TERMINAL CONNECTIONS

!Make certain that the terminal connections remain tight and uncorroded.

!The batteries must sit flat in the battery wells.

!The battery terminals should face the rear of the scooter.

WIRING HARNESSES

!Regularly check all wiring connections.

!Regularly check all wiring insulation, including the charger power cord, for wear or damage.

!Have your authorized Pride Provider repair or replace any damaged connector, connection, or insula- tion that you find before using your scooter again.

ABS PLASTIC SHROUDS

!The front tiller shroud, front shroud, and the rear shroud are formed from durable ABS plastic and are coated with an advanced formula urethane paint.

!A light application of car wax will help the shrouds retain their high gloss.
