Performthefollowinginspectionspriorto using yourscooter:
!Checkfor propertireinflation (ifequippedwith pneumatictires).
!Checkallelectricalconnections.Makesure they are tight and not corroded.
!Checkallharnessconnections.Makesuretheyaresecuredproperly.
!Check the brakes.
!Checkbatterycharge.
Ifyoudiscover a problem, contact yourauthorizedPrideProviderforassistance.
TIRE INFLATION
If your scooter is equipped with pneumatic tires, you should check or have the air pressure checked at least
onceaweek.Proper inflation pressures will prolong the life ofyourtiresand help ensure the smooth operation
of your scooter.
WARNING! It is critically important that 30-35 psi (2-2.4 bar) tire pressure be maintained
in pneumatic tires at all times. Do not underinflate or overinflate your tires. Low pressure
may result in loss of control, and overinflated tires may burst. Failure to maintain 30-35
psi (2-2.4 bar) tire pressure in pneumatic tires at all times may result in tire and/or
wheel failure.
WARNING! Inflate your scooter 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.
WEIGHT LIMITATIONS
Yourscooteris ratedfora maximumweightcapacity.Refer tothespecifications tableforinformation.
MANDATORY! Stay within the specified weight capacity for your scooter. 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 on your scooter. Carrying passengers on your scooter
may affect the center of gravity, resulting in a tip or a fall.
INCLINE INFORMATION
Moreand more buildings have rampswith specified degrees of inclination, designed for easy andsafe access.

When climbing an incline, try to keep your scooter moving. If you must stop, start up again slowly and then
acceleratecautiously.Whendriving down an incline, do so by setting the speed adjustment dial tothe slowest
settinganddrivingintheforwarddirectiononly. If your scooter starts to move down the incline faster than you
anticipatedordesired, allow it to come toacomplete stop by releasing the throttlecontrollever.Thenpush the
throttlecontrol leverforwardslightlytoensureasafely controlleddescent.
WARNING! When on any sort of an incline or decline, never place the scooter in freewheel
mode 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 scooter straight up the incline. This greatly reduces the possibility of a
tip or a fall. Always exercise extreme caution when negotiating an incline.
WARNING! Do not drive your scooter across the side of an incline or diagonally up or down
an incline; do not stop, if possible, while driving up or down 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! Even though your scooter 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
scooter.
Handicap public access ramps are not subject to government regulation in all countries and therefore do not

WARNING! Any attempt to climb or descend a slope steeper than what is shown in figure
1 may put your scooter in an unstable position and cause it to tip.
WARNING! Never carry an oxygen tank weighing more than 13 lbs. Never fill the front or
rear basket with contents exceeding 13 lbs.

NOTE: When negotiating ramps, if the throttle control lever is released while moving forward, the
powered scooter may “rollback” approximately 1 foot before the brake engages. If the throttle control
lever is released while moving in reverse, the powered scooter may “rollback” approximately 3 feet
before the brake engages.
CORNERING INFORMATION
Excessivelyhigh cornering speeds can create the possibility of tipping. Factors which affect the possibility of
tippinginclude, butarenot limitedto,corneringspeed,steeringangle(howsharplyyouareturning),unevenroad
surfaces,inclinedroadsurfaces,ridingfromanareaoflowtractiontoanareaofhightraction(suchaspassingfrom
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
steeringangle(i.e., lessen thesharpnessoftheturn) topreventyourscooterfrom tipping.
WARNING! When cornering sharply, reduce your speed and maintain a stable center of
gravity. When using your scooter at higher speeds, do not corner sharply. This greatly
reduces the possibility of a tip or fall. Always exercise common sense when cornering.

STATIONARY OBSTACLES (STEPS, CURBS, ETC.)
WARNING! Do not drive near raised surfaces, unprotected ledges, and/or drop-offs (curbs,
porches, stairs, etc.).
WARNING! Do not attempt to have your scooter climb or descend an obstacle that is
inordinately high.
WARNING! Do not attempt to have your scooter proceed backward down any step, curb, or
other obstacle. This may cause the scooter to tip.
WARNING! Be sure your scooter is traveling perpendicular to any curb you may be required
to ascend or descend. See figures 3 and 3A.
