GENERAL GUIDELINES
MANDATORY! Do not operate your new wheelchair for the first time without completely reading
and understanding this owner’s manual.
Your wheelchair 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 wheelchair user. Please be aware that the final
selection and purchasing decision regarding the type of wheelchair to be used is the responsibility of the wheel-
chair user, who is capable of making such a decision, and his/her health care professional (i.e., medical doctor,
physical therapist, etc.).
The contents of this manual are based on the expectation that a mobility device expert has properly fitted the
wheelchair to the user and has assisted the prescribing health care professional and/or the Quantum Rehab Pro-
vider in the instruction process for the use of the product.
There are certain situations, including some medical conditions, where the wheelchair user will need to practice
operating the wheelchair 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 wheelchair user in various daily living activities.
As you begin using your wheelchair 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 of elevators, up and down ramps, and over moderate terrain.
Below are some precautions, tips, and other safety considerations that will help you become accustomed to oper-
ating your wheelchair safely.
Modifications
Pride has designed and engineered your wheelchair to provide maximum mobility and utility. A wide range of
accessories is available from your Quantum Rehab Provider to further customize your wheelchair to better suit
your needs and/or preferences. Under no circumstances should you modify, add, remove, or disable any feature,
part, or function of your wheelchair.
WARNING! Do not modify your wheelchair in any way not authorized by Pride. Do not use
accessories if they have not been tested or approved for Pride products.
Pre-Ride Safety Check
Get to know the feel of your wheelchair and its capabilities. Pride recommends that you perform a safety check
before each use to make sure your wheelchair operates smoothly and safely. Before riding, you should be trained
in the safe use of this wheelchair by your Quantum Rehab Provider.
Perform the following inspections prior to using your wheelchair:
Check for proper tire inflation. Maintain but do not exceed the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on each
tire if equipped with pneumatic tires.
Check the manual wheel locks. See III. “Your Wheelchair.”
Check the attendant wheel lock, if your wheelchair is equipped with one. See III. “Your Wheelchair.”
NOTE: If you discover a problem, contact your Quantum Rehab Provider for assistance.
II. SAFETY

Kids UP Series www.pridemobility.com 7
Weight Limitations
Your wheelchair is rated for a maximum weight capacity. Please refer to the specifications table for this limit.
Keep in mind that the maximum weight capacity includes the combined weight of the user and any accessories
mounted to the wheelchair.
MANDATORY! Stay within the specified weight capacity of your wheelchair. Exceeding the
weight capacity voids your warranty. Pride will not be held responsible for injuries and/or
property damage resulting from failure to observe weight limitations.
WARNING! Do not carry passengers, including pets, on your wheelchair. Carrying passengers
and/or objects on your wheelchair may affect the center of gravity, resulting in a tip or a fall.
WARNING! Do not carry baggage on the back of the wheelchair. Carrying or tying baggage on
the back of the wheelchair may affect the center of gravity, resulting in a tip or a fall.
Tire Inflation
If your wheelchair is equipped with pneumatic tires, you should check or have the air pressure checked regularly.
Proper inflation pressures will prolong the life of your tires and help ensure the smooth operation of your wheelchair.
WARNING! It is important to maintain the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on the
pneumatic tires at all times. Do not under inflate or overinflate your tires. Low pressure may
result in loss of control, and overinflated tires may burst. Failure to maintain the psi/bar/kPa air
pressure rating indicated on the pneumatic tires at all times may result in tire and/or wheel
failure.
WARNING! Inflate your wheelchair drive tires from a regulated air source with an available
pressure gauge. Inflating your tires from an unregulated air source could overinflate them,
resulting in a burst tire.
NOTE: If the tire on your wheelchair lists the psi rating only, use the following conversion formulas to find
the bar or kPa rating: bar = psi x 0.06895; kPa = psi x 6.89476.
Incline Information
More and more buildings have ramps with specified degrees of inclination, designed for easy and safe access.
Some ramps may have turning switchbacks (180-degree turns) that require you to have good cornering skills on
your wheelchair.
Proceed with extreme caution as you approach the downgrade of a ramp or other incline.
Take wide swings with your wheelchair’s front wheels around any tight corners. If you do that, the
wheelchair’s rear wheels will follow a wide arc, not cut the corner short, and not bump into or get hung up on
any railing corners.
When driving down a ramp, proceed slowly to ensure a safely controlled descent.
Avoid sudden stops and starts.
When climbing an incline, try to keep your wheelchair moving. If you must stop, start up again slowly and then
accelerate cautiously. When driving down an incline, proceed slowly and drive in the forward direction only. If
your wheelchair starts to move down the incline faster than you anticipated or desired, bring it to a complete stop
using both hands, then proceed slowly to ensure a safely controlled descent.
WARNING! When on any sort of an incline or decline, never allow the wheelchair to
roll freely while seated on it or standing next to it.
WARNING! When climbing an incline, do not zigzag or drive at an angle up the face of
the incline. Drive your wheelchair straight up the incline. This greatly reduces the
possibility of a tip or a fall. Always exercise extreme caution when negotiating an
incline.
WARNING! You should not travel up or down a potentially hazardous incline (i.e.,
areas covered with snow, ice, cut grass, or wet leaves).
WARNING! Never travel down an incline backward. Doing so may cause the
wheelchair to tip. Always exercise extreme caution when negotiating an incline.
II. SAFETY

II. SAFETY
WARNING! If your wheelchair is equipped with a reclining seatback, do not attempt to negotiate
inclines with the seat in a reclined position. Do not attempt to negotiate obstacles with the seat
in a reclined position unless an attendant is present to help stabilize the chair. Failure to heed
may result in the wheelchair tipping over.
WARNING! Even though your wheelchair is capable of climbing slopes greater than those
illustrated in figure 1, do not, under any circumstances, exceed the incline guidelines or any
other specifications presented in this manual. Doing so could cause instability in your
wheelchair.
Pride recommends that the maximum slope of an incline you attempt to safely ascend or descend on your wheel-
chair does not exceed 5° (8.7%). See figure 1.
WARNING! Any attempt to climb or descend a slope steeper than 5° (8.7%) may put your
wheelchair in an unstable position and cause it to tip.
Figure 1. Maximum Safe Slope (Ascending and Descending)
Attendant or Manual Wheel Locks
Your wheelchair is equipped with an attendant wheel lock, which is mounted on the axle of the drive wheels, or
two manual wheel locks (Kids ROCK 2 and ROCK 3), which are mounted near (or directly in front of) both drive
wheels. The attendant or manual wheel locks help prevent your wheelchair from moving when parked. After you
bring your wheelchair to a complete stop, engage the attendant wheel lock or both manual wheel locks. If you
have any questions about the operation of your wheel locks, contact your Quantum Rehab Provider.
WARNING! Do not attempt to use either manual wheel lock lever to stop your wheelchair.
WARNING! Pride does not recommend that you remain parked on an incline for a long period of
time.
WARNING! Use care when operating the wheel locks. Possible pinch point created during
operation.
Cornering Information
While your wheelchair is equipped with front caster wheels, excessively high cornering speeds can still create the
possibility of tipping. Factors which affect the possibility of tipping include, but are not limited to: cornering
speed, steering angle (how sharply you are turning), uneven road surfaces, inclined road surfaces, riding from an
area of low traction to an area of high traction (such as passing from a grassy area to a paved area—especially at
high speed while turning), and abrupt directional changes. High cornering speeds are not recommended. If you
feel that you may tip over in a corner, reduce your speed and steering angle (i.e., lessen the sharpness of the turn)
to prevent your wheelchair from tipping.
WARNING! When cornering sharply, reduce your speed and maintain a stable center of gravity.
This greatly reduces the possibility of a tip or fall.
Public Streets and Roadways
WARNING! You should not operate your wheelchair on public streets and roadways. Be aware
that it may be difficult for traffic to see you when you are seated on your wheelchair. Obey all
local pedestrian traffic rules. Wait until your path is clear of traffic, and then proceed with
extreme caution.

Kids UP Series www.pridemobility.com 9
II. SAFETY
Outdoor Driving Surfaces
Your wheelchair is designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving conditions—dry, level surfaces
composed of concrete, blacktop, or asphalt. However, Pride recognizes that there will be times when you will
encounter other surface types. For this reason, your wheelchair is designed to perform admirably on packed soil,
grass, and gravel. Feel free to use your wheelchair safely on lawns and in park areas.
Avoid driving on uneven terrain and/or soft surfaces.
Avoid tall grass that can entangle the drive wheels or caster wheels.
Avoid loosely packed gravel and sand.
Avoid uneven surfaces.
Do not use your wheelchair in fresh or salt water.
Do not use your wheelchair at the edge of a stream, lake, or ocean.
If you feel unsure about a driving surface, avoid that surface.
Inclement Weather Precautions
Exposure of your wheelchair to inclement weather conditions should be avoided whenever possible. If suddenly
caught up in rain, snow, severe cold or heat while operating your wheelchair, proceed to shelter at the earliest
opportunity. Thoroughly dry your wheelchair before storing or operating your wheelchair.
PROHIBITED! Operating in rain, snow, salt, mist/spray conditions, and on icy/slippery surfaces
can have an adverse effect on your wheelchair. Maintain and store your wheelchair in a dry and
clean condition.
WARNING! Prolonged exposure to hot or cold conditions may affect the temperature of
upholstered and non-upholstered items on the wheelchair, possibly resulting in skin irritation.
Exercise caution when using the wheelchair in extremely hot or cold conditions or when
exposing your wheelchair to direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time.
Stationary Obstacles (Steps, Curbs, etc.)
Proceed with extreme caution when driving near raised surfaces, unprotected ledges and/or drop-offs (curbs,
porches, stairs, etc.). Be sure your wheelchair is traveling perpendicular to any curb you may be required to
navigate. See figure 2.
WARNING! Even though your wheelchair may be capable of handling greater obstacles, Pride
recommends that you do not attempt to negotiate a curb that has a height greater than 2 in.
(5 cm). Doing so could cause instability in your wheelchair.
WARNING! Do not attempt to have your wheelchair proceed backward down any step, curb, or
other obstacle. This may cause the wheelchair to tip.
Figure 2. Correct Curb Approach Figure 3. Incorrect Curb Approach
Stairs and Escalators
Wheelchairs are not designed to travel up or down stairs or escalators. Always use an elevator.
WARNING! Never use your wheelchair to negotiate steps or escalators.

10 www.pridemobility.com Kids UP Series
Doors
Determine if the door opens toward or away from you.
Drive your wheelchair gently and slowly forward to push the door open, or drive your wheelchair 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).
If you are in the doorway of an elevator when the door(s) begin to close, push on the rubber door edge or allow
the rubber door edge to contact the wheelchair and the door will reopen.
Use care that pocketbooks, packages, or wheelchair accessories do not become caught in elevator doors.
Lift Systems/Elevation Products
If you will be transporting your wheelchair during travel, you may find it necessary to use a vehicle-mounted lift
system or elevation product to aid in transportation. Pride recommends that you closely review the warnings,
instructions, specifications, and safety information set forth by the manufacturer of the lift/elevation product
before using that product.
WARNING! Not all lift systems/elevation products are rated for use with an occupied mobility
device. Pride recommends that you do not remain seated in your wheelchair when it is being
used in connection with any type of lift system/elevation product unless:
That product is rated for occupied use by the manufacturer.
You are able to occupy your mobility device in strict conformity with the warnings,
instructions, specifications, and safety guidelines set forth by the manufacturer.
Motor Vehicle Transport
Pride recommends that you do not remain seated in your wheelchair while traveling in a motor vehicle. Your wheel-
chair was designed to be folded and stored in a secure location, such as the trunk of a car, during motor vehicle
transport, unless it is equipped with an optional transit securement system. If your wheelchair is equipped with a
transit securement system, see III. “Your Wheelchair.”
WARNING! The wheelchair user should transfer into the motor vehicle seat and use the vehicle-
installed restraint system whenever feasible. The wheelchair user should never sit in the
wheelchair while it is in a moving vehicle unless it is equipped and properly secured with a
manufacturer-installed transit securement system.
WARNING! Ensure wheelchairs equipped with a transit securement system are properly secured
to the motor vehicle during transport. Wheelchairs that are not properly secured can become a
hazard to the user and to other vehicle passengers in the event of a crash, sudden stopping, or
swerving, as the wheelchair could tip or slide out of place.
Positioning Belts
Your Quantum Rehab Provider, therapist(s), and other healthcare professionals are responsible for determining
your requirement for a positioning belt in order to operate your wheelchair safely. Typically, the positioning belt
is not designed for use as a restraining device in a motor vehicle. You should be properly belted into seats
approved by the vehicle manufacturer with your wheelchair properly stowed for vehicle transport or secured using
an optional transit securement system.
Positioning belts should be installed as detailed in this manual. See III. “Your Wheelchair.” Once installed, the
belt should be placed across the pelvis as determined by your healthcare provider. Anchor points of the positioning
belts should be located so that a projected side-view angle of the pelvis is between 45°-75° of horizontal depend-
ing on the user’s weight, posture, and seat cushion thickness.
WARNING! If you require a positioning belt to safely operate your wheelchair, make sure it is
fastened securely in order to reduce the possibility of a fall from the wheelchair.
II. SAFETY

Kids UP Series www.pridemobility.com 11
WARNING! The positioning belt is not designed for use as a seat belt in a motor vehicle. Nor is
your wheelchair suitable for use as a seat in any vehicle. Anyone traveling in a vehicle should
be properly belted into seats approved by the vehicle manufacturer.
WARNING! Avoid serious injury. Always use positioning belt to prevent the child from falling or
slipping out of wheelchair. After fastening buckles, adjust positioning belt to get a snug fit
around the child.
WARNING! Avoid serious injury. Do not place items with strings around your child’s neck,
suspend strings from the wheelchair, or attach strings to toys.
Removable Parts
WARNING! Do not attempt to lift or move a wheelchair by any of its removable parts, including
the armrests, seat, tray, and front riggings. Do not attempt to pick up the wheelchair while the
seat is occupied.
Preventing Unintended Movement
WARNING! If you anticipate the child being seated in a stationary position for an extended period
of time, apply the wheel locks. This will prevent unexpected chair movement.
Reaching and Bending
Never reach, lean, or bend while driving your wheelchair. If it is absolutely necessary to reach, lean, or bend while
seated on your wheelchair, it is important to maintain a stable center of gravity and keep the wheelchair from
tipping. Pride recommends that the wheelchair 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 or if you have to reach over the back
of the seat. Movements such as these may change your center of gravity and the
weight distribution of the wheelchair. This may cause your wheelchair to tip.
Keep your hands, clothing and all other object away from the tires when driving. Do
not allow any personal belongings or objects to drag behind the wheelchair when
driving. Be aware that loose fitting clothing or other objects can become caught in
drive tires and/or they may become entangled in the running gear.
II. SAFETY
Transfers
Transferring onto and off of your wheelchair requires a
good sense of balance. Always have an attendant or health-
care professional present while learning to properly trans-
fer yourself.
To eliminate the possibility of injury, Pride recommends
that you or a trained attendant perform the following tasks
before attempting a transfer:
 Turn both caster wheels toward the transfer destination
to improve wheelchair stability during transfer.
Ensure both wheel locks on your wheelchair are
engaged. See III. “Your Wheelchair.”
Reduce the distance between your wheelchair and the
object you are transferring onto.
WARNING! Before transferring, position
yourself as far back as possible in the
wheelchair seat to prevent the wheelchair
from tipping forward during transfer. Figure 4. Ideal Transfer Position

12 www.pridemobility.com Kids UP Series
II. SAFETY
WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the wheelchair armrests and do not use the
armrests for weight bearing purposes, such as transfers. Such use may cause the wheelchair to
tip, resulting in a fall from the wheelchair and personal injury.
WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the manual wheel locks and do not use the manual
wheel locks for weight bearing purposes, such as transfers. Such use may cause equipment
damage or personal injury.
WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the front riggings. Such use may cause the
wheelchair to tip.
WARNING! Ensure legs, hands, and clothing are clear of the scissor-style wheel lock levers when
attempting to transfer.
Prescription Drugs/Physical Limitations
Users must exercise care and common sense when operating a wheelchair. 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 wheelchair in a safe manner.
Alcohol/Smoking
The attendant for the wheelchair user must exercise care and common sense when operating the wheelchair. This
includes awareness of safety issues while under the influence of alcohol or while smoking.
WARNING! Do not operate the wheelchair while you are under the influence of alcohol, as this
may impair your ability to operate the wheelchair in a safe manner.
WARNING! Pride strongly recommends that the attendant does not smoke cigarettes while the
child is seated in the wheelchair, although the wheelchair has passed the necessary testing
requirements for cigarette smoking. You must adhere to the following safety guidelines if you
decide to smoke cigarettes while a child is seated in the wheelchair.
Do not leave lit cigarettes unattended.
Keep ashtrays a safe distance from the seat cushions.
Always make sure cigarettes are completely extinguished before disposal.
Flammability Precautions
WARNING! Even though the plastics used on your wheelchair have been tested and have passed
the applicable flammability standards, Pride recommends that you do not expose your
wheelchair to open flames.
WARNING! Replace worn or damaged upholstery immediately to reduce the risk of fire hazard.
WARNING! Be aware that washing of upholstered items may reduce the resistance to
flammability of the fabric.

attached.
WARNING! Ensure that the shell
assembly is properly attached to the
mobility base before placing the child
in the wheelchair.
To remove the shell assembly:
1. Engage the attendant wheel locks.
2. Ensure that the ACTIVE handle lever, which is
located on the front of the ACTIVE handle, is in the
OFF position (parallel to the ACTIVE handle). See
figure 14.

Transit Feature (Optional)
The Kids UP Series Wheelchairs are approved for transporting children in motor vehicles when the wheelchair is
equipped with optional transit features. Use in accordance with the instructions supplied by the vehicle-mounted
tie-down manufacturer and the following guidelines:
The Kids UP Series Wheelchairs conform to, and have been dynamically tested in compliance with ANSI/
RESNA WC /Vol. 1, Section 19.5.3.
Contact your Quantum Rehab Provider with any questions regarding use of the wheelchair for seating in a
motor vehicle.
WARNING! Ensure that restraints are not held away from the body by wheelchair components.
WARNING! Attach tie-downs only to designated tie-down locations.
WARNING! Do not use the wheelchair if the wheelchair has been involved in a crash.
Guidelines:
Transfer the child to the vehicle seat, and use the vehicle-installed restraint system whenever possible.
The wheelchair must be secured in a forward-facing position with a Wheelchair Tie-down and Occupant
Restraint System (WTORS) that meets the requirements of SAE J2249 Recommended Practice (Wheelchair
Tie-down and Occupant Restraint System for Use in Motor Vehicles).
The Kids UP Series Wheelchairs have been dynamically tested in a forward-facing mode with the test device
restrained by both pelvic and upper torso belts. Both pelvic and upper torso belts must be used to reduce the
possibility of head and chest impacts with vehicle components.
For approved transit tie-down locations and location of the pelvic belt attachment pin, see figures 16 and 17.
The Kids FAST Wheelchair can accommodate up to 80 lbs. (36 kg); the Kids ROCK 2 Wheelchair can
accommodate up to 110 lbs. (50 kg), and the Kids ROCK 3 Wheelchair can accommodate up to 215 lbs.
(97 kg). Do not exceed these occupant weights.
The wheelchair must be placed in a forward-facing position when used as a seat in a motor vehicle. Use an
approved four-point strap-type tie-down system, and an approved three-point belt for the child. Secure the
wheelchair and the child using the instructions provided with the tie-down system.

Ensure that restraints are not held away from the child’s body by wheelchair components.
Adjust the belts so that the belts fit as snugly as is comfortable for the child.
Install belt restraints that comply with the provisions of ANSI/RESNA WC/Vol. 1, Section 19.4.9.2 through
4.9.5 and 5.2 that have been dynamically tested in accordance with Annex A and 5.3 of the same, for use as a
restraint in a motor vehicle.
Postural supports and belts may be used in addition to the occupant belt restraint, but should not be used as a
replacement of the occupant restraints that have been designed and tested for this purpose.
Preferred pelvic belt angle-range. See figure 18.
Steeper side-view pelvic-belt angles are especially important if the pelvic belt is intended to be used for
postural support in addition to occupant restraint in a frontal crash.
Steeper angles will reduce the tendency for a vertical gap to develop between the user and the belt due to
compliance of seat cushions and belt movement. This will reduce the tendency for the user to slip under the
belt and for the belt to ride up on the child’s abdomen during normal use.
Steeper belt angles reduce the tendency for upper-torso belts to pull the pelvic belt into the abdomen during
frontal impact loading.
Remove auxiliary equipment from the wheelchair and secure the equipment in the vehicle during transit.
Remove wheelchair-mounted trays from the wheelchair and secure the trays in the vehicle during transit.
Do not perform alterations or substitutions to the structure and frame components without consulting your
Quantum Rehab Provider.
Follow the specifications for the recommended safety zone. See figure 19.
Ensure that the recline and tilt features place the child in an upright position and never exceed a 30º (from
vertical) recline when using the wheelchair for transport.
Ensure that the ACTIVE handle lever (located on the front of the ACTIVE handle) is in the OFF position
(parallel to the ACTIVE handle).
Always drive carefully to minimize excessive force on the tie-down system.
