STAIRS AND ESCALATORS

Scooters are not designed to travel up or down stairs or escalators. Always use an elevator.

WARNING! Do not use your scooter to negotiate steps or escalators. You may cause injury to yourself and to others and/or damage your scooter.

DOORS

νDetermine if the door opens toward or away from you.

νUse your hand to turn the knob or push the handle or push-bar.

νDrive your scooter gently and slowly forward to push the door open. Or drive your scooter gently and slowly backward to pull the door open.

ELEVATORS

Modern elevators have a door edge safety mechanism that, when pushed, reopens the elevator door(s).

νUse care that pocketbooks, packages, or scooter accessories do not become caught in elevator doors.

LIFT/ELEVATION PRODUCTS

It is recommended that you closely review the instructions, specifications, and safety information set forth by the manufacturer of the lift/elevation product before using that product.
