II. Safety
It is very important that you understand the safety instructions and recommendations
before operating this product.
READ AND REVIEW THIS MANUAL AS OFTEN AS NEEDED
Before operation of the Geo Cruiser, you, and anyone assisting you, should read the entire
contents of this owner’s manual and follow all instructions and review all warnings to insure
the proper operation of the Geo Cruiser.
WARNINGS
The word “WARNING” refers to a hazard or unsafe practice that may cause severe injury or
even death to you or to other persons if the warning is not followed. The “Warnings” are in
the following areas:
1. GENERAL WARNINGS
These provide a safety checklist and a summary of the risks you need to be aware of
before operating the Geo Cruiser.
2. WARNINGS (COMPONENTS & OPTIONS)
Here you will learn about the Geo Cruiser. Consult your health care professional to
help you choose the best set-up and options for your safety.
3. BATTERIES
Here you will learn about battery and charger safety, and how to avoid injury.
4. EMI
This covers electromagnetic interference and how it can affect your power chair
IMPORATANT SAFTEY TIPS
MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY
1. Never sit in the Geo Cruiser while traveling in a van, train, bus or other vehicle that
accommodates a power chair unless the Geo Cruiser is properly secured to the
vehicle. This will allow you to avoid being thrown due to sudden braking, or an
accident.
2. Never transport the Geo Cruiser in the front seat of a vehicle. It may shift and
interfere with the driver.
3. Again, always secure the Geo Cruiser so that it cannot roll or shift.
NOTE – Where they apply, you will also find “Warnings” in other sections of this manual.

7
II. SAFETY
1. The Geo Cruiser should be adjusted to fit your needs and/or disability.
2. Every power chair is different. Take the time to learn the feel of the Geo Cruiser
before you begin riding.
3. Be aware that you must take into consideration your own needs and/or your disability
so that you can further develop additional methods for the safe use and operation of
this Geo Cruiser power chair.
4. Have someone help you practice bending, reaching and transferring to the Geo
Cruiser until you learn how to do these things safely.
5. Never try a new maneuver on your own unless you are sure it is safe.
6. Get to know the areas where you plan to use your Geo Cruiser. Look for hazards and
learn how to avoid them.
NOTICE TO FAMILY, FRIENDS AND /OR ATTENDANTS
Make sure that you pay careful attention to all warnings and follow all instructions in each
section of this manual. (Be aware that warnings that apply to the rider also apply to you).
WEIGHT LIMITS
DX LX EX
270 lbs. 350 lbs. 350 lbs.
1. Never exceed a total weight limit for the model that you have. This includes items
carried.
2. You should not attempt to perform weight training on your Geo Cruiser if the total
weight (rider plus additional weights) exceeds the weight of your unit.
3. Exceeding the weight limit is likely to damage the seat, frame, or fasteners and may
cause severe injury to you or others from power chair failure. Exceeding the weight
limit will void the warranty.
CONTROLLER SETTINGS
Get familiar with the controller settings and touch sensitivity of the joystick and the speed
control. You will also need to get use to the joystick forward and reverse function, as well as
braking. We do sell a joystick programmer in the event you want to slow the speed even
more than the default settings, or if you want to change other parameters.
NOTE – It is important that you pay close attention to all warnings in this section. If you
fail to do so, you may fall, tip-over or lose control resulting in severe injury to you or
others.

II. SAFETY
WHEN SEATED IN A PARKED GEO CRUISER
•Always power-down your Geo Cruiser when you are parked, even for a moment. This
will prevent:
a. Accidental movement from contact with the throttle lever by you or others.
b. Unintended brake release or movement from EMI sources.
•Make sure that persons who help you (for example, store clerks) are aware of the
joystick and do not touch it. If they do, your Geo Cruiser may move suddenly when
you do not expect it.
REACHING OR LEANING
Reaching or leaning could affect the center of balance of your power chair. If done
improperly, a fall or tip-over is likely. When in doubt, ask for help or use a device to extend
your reach. To reduce the risk of injury and/or damage to the Geo Cruiser:
•Never reach or lean if you must shift your weight sideways or rise-up off the seat.
•Never reach or lean if you must move forward in your seat to do so.
•Never reach with both hands (you may not be able to catch yourself to prevent a fall
if you lose your balance). Never try to pick up an object from the floor by reaching
down between your knees.
•Under no circumstance should you try to pick up anything through the space between
your knees or in front of your body.
•Do not rest forcefully against the top of the backrest to avoid tipping over the chair
and causing damage to the backrest.
IF YOU MUST REACH OR LEAN, REMEMBER TO:
a. Move your Geo Cruiser as close as you can to the object you wish to reach.
b. Turn off all power to the Geo Cruiser. If you fail to do so, you may touch the joystick
and cause your power chair to move when you do not expect it.
c. Firmly grasp an armrest with one hand. This will help to prevent a fall if the Geo
Cruiser tips.
CORNERING INFORMATION
When cornering, make sure you are not operating at a high speed or you will increase the
possibility of tipping. Things that will affect the possibility of tipping may include, but are not
limited to, the cornering speed, how sharply you are making the turn, uneven road surfaces,
and an inclined road surface. Overall, we strongly recommend that you avoid high speed
cornering and always operate your Geo Cruiser at a safe and cautious speed.

II. SAFETY
OBSTACLES
Obstacles you may have to overcome in daily use include door thresholds, lifts, ramps and
hazards such as potholes and broken pavement. These could damage the Geo Cruiser and
may cause a fall, tip-over or loss of control. Always remember to:
1. Keep your eyes moving when you ride; scan the area well ahead of the Geo Cruiser.
2. Make sure the floor areas where you use the Geo Cruiser are level and free of
obstacles.
3. To help correct your center of balance:
a. Lean your upper body forward slightly as you go up over an obstacle.
b. Press your upper body backward as you go down from a higher to a lower
level.
RAMPS, SLOPES & SIDEHILLS
The center of balance of your Geo Cruiser changes when you are on a slope. Never use
this Power chair on a slope unless you are sure it is safe. When in doubt, have someone
help you.
Beware of:
1. Steep slopes. Do not use your Geo Cruiser on a slope steeper than 10°. (A 10° slope
means: One foot in elevation for every ten feet of slope length).
2. Wet or slippery surfaces (such as when an ice, snow, water or oil film is present). A loss of
traction may cause a fall or tip-over.
1. A change in grade on a slope (or a lip, bump or depression). These may cause a fall
or tip-over.
2. A drop-off at the bottom of a slope. (A drop-off of as small as 3/4 inch can stop a front
caster and cause the Geo Cruiser to tip forward).
NOTE: “Slope” includes a ramp or side hill. Your Geo Cruiser is less stable when it
is at an angle
