II. SAFETY
GENERAL
Your PMV is a state-of-the-art life-enhancement device designed to increase mobility. Pride provides an extensive
variety of products to best fit the individual needs of the PMV user. Please be aware that the final selection and
purchasing decision regarding the type of PMV to be used is the responsibility of the PMV user who is capable of
making such a decision.
The contents of this manual are based on the expectation that a mobility device expert has properly fitted the PMV
to the user and has assisted the Pride Provider in the instruction process for the use of the product.
There are certain situations, including some medical conditions, where the PMV user will need to practice operat-
ing the PMV in the presence of a trained attendant. A trained attendant can be defined as a family member or care
professional specially trained in assisting a PMV user in various daily living activities.
As you begin using your PMV during daily activities, you will probably encounter situations in which you will need
some practice. Simply take your time and you will soon be in full and confident control as you maneuver through
doorways, on and off elevators, up and down ramps, and over moderate terrain.
Below are some precautions, tips, and other safety considerations that will help the user become accustomed to
operating the PMV safely.

cumstances should you modify, add, remove, or disable any feature, part, or function of your PMV.
