WARNING! Always be sure your Travel Scooter and its batteries are properly secured when it is being transported. Batteries should be secured in an upright position, and protective caps should be installed on the battery terminals. Batteries should not be transported with any flammable or combustible items.

PREVENTING UNINTENDED MOVEMENT

WARNING! If you anticipate being seated in a stationary position for an extended period of time, turn off the power. This will prevent unexpected motion from inadvertent throttle control lever contact.

GETTING ONTO AND OFF OF YOUR TRAVEL SCOOTER

Getting onto and off of your Travel Scooter requires a good sense of balance. Please observe the following safety tips when getting onto and off of your Travel Scooter:

!Remove the key from the key switch.

!Ensure that your Travel Scooter is not in freewheel mode. See III. “Your Travel Scooter.”

!Ensure that the seat is secured into place.

!Pivot the armrests up to make getting onto and off of the Travel Scooter easier.

WARNING! Position yourself as far back as possible in the Travel Scooter seat to prevent the Travel Scooter from tipping.

WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the Travel Scooter armrests and do not use the armrests for weight bearing purposes, such as transfers. Such use may cause the Travel Scooter to tip, resulting in a fall from the Travel Scooter and personal injury.

WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the floorboard. Such use may cause the Travel Scooter to tip.

REACHING AND BENDING

Avoid reaching or bending while driving your Travel Scooter. Bending forward creates the risk of accidental throttle control lever contact. Bending to the side while seated creates the risk of tipping. It is important to maintain a stable center of gravity and keep the Travel Scooter from tipping. Pride recommends that the Travel Scooter user determine his/her personal limitations and practice bending and reaching in the presence of a qualified attendant.

WARNING! Do not bend, lean, or reach for objects if you have to pick them up from the Travel Scooter deck or from either side of the Travel Scooter. Movements such as these may change your center of gravity and the weight distribution of the Travel Scooter and cause your Travel Scooter to tip.

PROHIBITED! Keep your hands away from the tires when driving. Be aware that loose fitting clothing can become caught in drive tires.

POSITIONING BELTS

Your authorized Pride Provider, therapist(s), and other healthcare professionals are responsible for determining your requirement for a positioning belt in order to operate your Travel Scooter safely.

WARNING! If you require a positioning belt to safely operate your Travel Scooter, make sure it is fastened securely.
