SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

DO NOT, under any circumstances, cut or remove the round grounding prong from any plug used with or for Invacare products. Some devices are equipped with three-prong (grounding) plugs for protection against possible shock hazards. Where a two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to contact a qualified electrician and have the two-prong receptacle replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle in accordance with the National Electrical Code. If you must use an extension cord, use ONLY a three-wire extension cord having the same or higher electrical rating as the device being connected. In addition, Invacare has placed RED/ORANGE WARNING TAGS on some equipment. DO NOT remove these tags.

BATTERIES

The warranty and performance specifications contained in this manual are based on the use of deep cycle gel cell batteries. Invacare strongly recommends their use as the power source for this unit.

Carefully read battery/battery charger information prior to installing, servicing or operating your powered scooter.

RAIN TEST

INVACARE has tested its powered scooters in accordance with ISO 7176 “Rain Test”. This provides the end user or his/her attendant sufficient time to remove his/her power powered scooter from a rain storm and retain powered scooter operation.

DO NOT leave the powered scooter in a rain storm of any kind.

DO NOT use the powered scooter in a shower.

DO NOT leave the powered scooter in a damp area for any length of time.

Direct exposure to rain or dampness will cause the scooter to malfunction electrically and mechanically; may cause the wheelchair to prematurely rust.

Check to ensure that the battery covers are secured in place and that all electrical connections are secure at all times.

WEIGHT TRAINING

Invacare DOES NOT recommend the use of its powered scooters as a weight training apparatus. Invacare powered scooters have NOT been designed or tested as a seat for any kind of weight training. If occupant uses said powered scooter as a weight training apparatus, INVACARE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR BODILY INJURY AND THE WARRANTY IS VOID.
