REACHING AND BENDING

Avoid reaching or bending while driving your scooter. When reaching, bending, or leaning while seated on your scooter, it is important to maintain a stable center of gravity and keep the scooter from tipping. Pride recommends that the scooter user determine his/her personal limitations and practice bending and reaching in the presence of a qualified healthcare professional.

WARNING! Do not bend, lean, or reach for objects if you have to pick them up from the floor by reaching down between your knees. Movements such as these may change your center of gravity and the weight distribution of the scooter and cause your scooter to tip, possibly resulting in personal injury. Keep your hands away from the tires when driving.

PRESCRIPTION DRUGS/PHYSICAL LIMITATIONS

The scooter user must exercise care and common sense when operating his/her scooter. This includes awareness of safety issues when taking prescribed or over-the-counter drugs or when the user has specific physical limitations.

WARNING! Consult your physician if you are taking prescribed or over-the-counter medication or if you have certain physical limitations. Some medications and limitations may impair your ability to operate your scooter in a safe manner.

ALCOHOL

The scooter user must exercise care and common sense when operating his/her scooter. This includes awareness of safety issues while under the influence of alcohol.

WARNING! Do not operate your scooter while you are under the influence of alcohol, as this may impair your ability to drive safely.

REMOVABLE PARTS

WARNING! Do not attempt to lift or move a scooter by any of its removable parts. Personal injury and damage to the scooter may result.
