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! Do not operate or store your scooter where it may be exposed to inclement weather conditions such as rain, snow, mist, and below freezing temperatures (such as storage on an outside car/van lift). Attempting to operate the scooter in such conditions can damage the electronics and potentially result in loss of control.

FREEWHEEL MODE

Yourscooterisequippedwithamanual freewheelleverthat, when pulled up,allowsthe scooter to be pushed. For moreinformationabouthowtoplaceyour scooterintoandoutoffreewheelmode,seeV. “Your Legend.”

WARNING! When your scooter is in freewheel mode, the braking system is disengaged.

νDisengage the drive motors only on a level surface.

νEnsure the key is removed from the key switch.

νStand behind the scooter to engage or disengage freewheel mode. Never sit on a scooter to do this.

νAfter you have finished pushing your scooter, always return it to the drive mode to lock the brakes.

Failure to heed the above could result in personal injury and/or damage to your scooter.

An added feature built into the Legend is “push-too-fast” protection which safeguards the scooter against gaining excessive speed while in freewheel mode.

“Push-too-fast” operates differently depending on which of two conditions exists:

νIf the key is switched “off” while in freewheel mode, the scooter’s controller activates regenerative braking whenthescooter is pushedfasterthan amaximumthresholdwhichhasbeenpreprogrammed. Inthis case, the controller is acting as a speed governor.

νIf the key is switched “on” while in freewheel mode, you will encounter considerable resistance at any speed. Thispreventsthescooterfromgainingunwantedmomentumshouldthemanualfreewheelleverinadvertently be released while driving the scooter.
