SAFETY
WARNING! Do not operate your new power chair or the irst time without completely reading and
understanding this owners manual.
Your power chair 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 power chair user. Please be aware that the final selection and
purchasing decision regarding the type of power chair to be used is the responsibility of the power chair user, who is
capable of making such a decision, and his/her healthcare 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 power chair
to the user and has assisted the prescribing healthcare professional and/or the authorized Pride Provider in the instruction
process for the use of the product.
There are certain situations, including some medical conditions, where the power chair user will need to practice operating
the power chair 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 power chair user in various daily living activities.
As you begin using your power chair 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 the user become accustomed to operating
the power chair safely.
Modifications
Pride has designed and engineered your power chair to provide maximum mobility and utility. A wide range of accessories
is available from your authorized Pride Provider to further customize your power chair to better suit your needs and/or
preferences. However, under no circumstances should you modify, add, remove, or disable any feature, part, or function
of your power chair.
WARNING! Do not modi y your power chair in any way not authorized by Pride. Unauthorized
modi ications may result in personal injury and/or damage to your power chair.
Pre-Ride Safety Check
Get to know the feel of your power chair and its capabilities. Pride recommends that you perform a safety check before
each use to make sure your power chair operates smoothly and safely. See VIII. Care and Maintenance.
Perform the following inspections prior to using your power chair:
nCheck for proper tire inflation. Maintain 35 psi in each tire (if equipped with pneumatic tires).
nCheck all electrical connections. Make sure they are tight and not corroded.
nCheck all controller connections to the electronics tray. Make sure they are secured properly.
nCheck the brakes. See VIII. Care and Maintenance.
nCheck battery charge. See VI. Batteries and Charging.

II. SAFETY
NOTE: If you discover a problem, contact your authorized ride rovider for assistance.
Weight Limitations
Your power chair is rated for a maximum weight capacity. Please refer to the specifications table for this limit.
WARNING! Exceeding the weight capacity voids your warranty and may result in personal injury
and/or damage to your power chair. Pride will not be held responsible or injuries and/or property
damage resulting rom ailure to observe weight limitations.
WARNING! Do not carry passengers on your power chair. Carrying passengers on your power
chair may result in personal injury and/or property damage.
Tire Inflation
If your power chair is equipped with pneumatic tires, you should check or have the air pressure checked at least once a week.
Proper inflation pressures will prolong the life of your tires and help ensure the smooth operation of your power chair.
WARNING! It is important that 35 psi tire pressure be maintained in pneumatic tires at all times.
Do not underin late or overin late your tires. Low pressure may result in loss o control, and
overin lated tires may burst. Failure to maintain 35 psi tire pressure in pneumatic tires at all times
may result in tire and/or wheel ailure, causing serious personal injury and/or damage to your
Jazzy.
WARNING! In late your power chair drive tires rom a regulated air source with an available pressure
gauge. In lating your tires rom an unregulated air source could overin late them, resulting in a
burst tire and/or personal injury.
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 power chair.
nProceed with extreme caution as you approach the downgrade of a ramp or other incline.
nTake wide swings with your power chairs front wheels around any tight corners. If you do that, the power chair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.
nWhen driving down a ramp, keep the power chairs speed adjustment set to the slowest speed setting to ensure a
safely controlled descent. See VII. Operation.
nAvoid sudden stops and starts.
When climbing an incline, try to keep your power chair moving. If you must stop, start up again slowly and then accelerate
cautiously. When driving down an incline, set your power chair to the slowest setting and drive in the forward direction
only. If your power chair starts to move down the incline faster than you anticipated or desired, allow it to come to a
complete stop by releasing the joystick, then push the joystick forward slightly to ensure a safely controlled descent.
WARNING! When climbing an incline, do not zigzag or drive at an angle up the ace o the incline.
Drive your power chair straight up the incline. This greatly reduces the possibility o a tip or a all.
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! When on any sort o an incline or decline, never place the power chair in reewheel
mode while seated on it or standing next to it. Doing so may result in personal injury and/or
damage to your power chair.

II. SAFETY
Figure 1. Maximum Safe Angle (Ascending and Descending)
WARNING! Never travel down an incline backward. This may result in personal injury.
WARNING! Even though your power chair is capable o climbing slopes greater than those illustrated in
igure 1, do not, under any circumstances, exceed the incline guidelines or any other speci ications
presented in this manual. Doing so could cause instability in your power chair, resulting in personal injury
and/or damage to your power chair.
In compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, all handicap public access ramps are required to have a
maximum slope of 5°. Therefore, Pride recommends that the maximum slope of an incline you attempt to safely ascend or
descend on your power chair does not exceed 5°. See figure 1.
WARNING! Any attempt to climb or descend a slope steeper than 5° may put your power chair in
an unstable position and cause it to tip, resulting in personal injury.
Braking Information
Your power chair is equipped with two powerful brake systems:
1. Regenerative  uses electricity to rapidly slow the vehicle when the joystick returns to the center/stop position.
2. Disc Park Brake  activates mechanically after regenerative braking slows the vehicle to near stop, or when power
is removed from the system for any reason.
Cornering Information
While your power chair is equipped with caster wheels and anti-tip 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 power chair from tipping.
WARNING! When cornering sharply, reduce your speed. This greatly reduces the possibility o a
tip or all. To avoid personal injury and/or property damage, always exercise common sense when
cornering.
Outdoor riving Surfaces
Your power chair 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 power chair is designed to perform admirably on packed soil, grass, and gravel. Feel free to
use your power chair safely on lawns and in park areas.
nReduce your power chairs speed when driving on uneven terrain and/or soft surfaces.
nAvoid tall grass that can entangle the running gear.
nAvoid loosely packed gravel and sand.
nIf you feel unsure about a driving surface, avoid that surface.

Electronics Tray
The electronics tray is located on the back of the power base. See figures 6 and 7. The ammeter, the onboard charger AC
power cord, the main circuit breaker, the controller connector, and the charger fuse are all located on the electronics tray.
Ammeter: The ammeter displays the chargers current output in amps. See VI. Batteries and Charging.
harger Power ord Receptacle: This is where the charger power cord plugs into the power base.
Main ircuit Breaker: The main circuit breaker is a safety feature built into your Jazzy. When the batteries and the
motors are heavily strained (e.g., from excessive loads), the main circuit breaker trips to prevent damage to the motors and
the electronics. If the circuit trips, allow your Jazzy to rest for approximately one minute. Next, push in the circuit breaker
button, turn on the controller, and continue normal operation. If the main circuit breaker continues to trip repeatedly,
contact your authorized Pride Provider.
ontroller onnector: This is where the controller connects to the power base. The VSI controller uses a large 9-pin
connector. The Remote Plus and the Europa use smaller, multi-pin communications cable connectors (not shown).
harger Inhibit onnector: The VSI controller is equipped with a charger inhibit connector. The charger inhibit
enables the onboard charger to disable the controller during charging. The charger inhibit connector is coded with
colored dots. The dots are positioned so that you can align the flat side of the male connector with the flat side of
the female connector before making the connection.
WARNING! Failure to properly align the connectors can result in damage to the controller, the charger
harness, and the connectors.
harger Fuse: The charger fuse protects the ammeter from current overload. There are three fuses on the utility tray. The
top one is the charger fuse. The bottom two are spares.
Power Actuator onnector and Lighting System onnector (VSI Only): This is where the power actuator connects
to the controller. Standard lighting systems have a single-pin connector. Full lighting systems with the VSI controller use a
-pin connector. Not shown.
Active-Trac Suspension (1121 Only)
The Jazzy 1121 is equipped with Active-Trac Suspension (ATS). ATS is a suspension system designed to make your Jazzy
traverse different types of terrain and obstacles while maintaining smooth operation. With ATS, your front anti-tip wheels
work in conjunction with your motor suspension to help you maneuver over obstacles in excess of three inches in height.
As your front anti-tip wheels come in contact with an obstacle, the front anti-tip wheel assembly is drawn upward. At the
same time, your motors are forced downward. This allows the motors to push the Jazzy 1121 over an obstacle without the
possibility of becoming hung up on the obstacle.
ATS also helps in day-to-day operating conditions. For instance, when you release the joystick, your Jazzy begins to slow
down. As the chair slows down, the front anti-tip wheels will automatically drop toward the ground. This will reduce the
forward tip that is typically encountered with center-wheel drive chairs.

Jazzy1101/1121 www.pridemobility.com 17
III. THE JAZZY 1101/1121
Manual Freewheel Lever

The Universal Mounting System (UMS) consists of universal parts that may be used on any medium-back or high-back
seat, regardless of seat width or seat depth. The two main components are aluminum extrusions that can be mounted to
any medium-back or high-back seat. These extrusions attach to a pair of trapeze bars that are mounted to four steel
towers.
WARNING! Do not pick up the seat rame by the armrests. They are ree to pivot, and you may lose control
o the seat i they do so, resulting in personal injury or damage to the chair.
To install the seat:
1. Set the seat towers to the desired height. To change the seat height, see V. Comfort Adjustments.
2. Remove the front extrusion clamp from the front extrusion. See figures 12 and 1 .
. Tilt the seat back, and slide the rear extrusion onto the rear trapeze bar.
4. Lower front extrusion onto the front trapeze bar.
5. Place the clamp bracket tab into the extrusion retaining slot and and secure the clamp with the hardware.
6. Plug the controller cable(s) into the connector on the electronics tray. See figure 6.
7. Route the cable to ensure that the cable cannot be pinched in the seat hinge.
8. Secure the controller cable to the armrest receiver with one or more wire ties.

Seat Height and Seat Angle Adjustment
There are four steel towers that connect the seat to the power base. See figure 6. You can change the seat height to one of
three positions in 1-in. increments by raising the seat towers. If you raise or lower only one set of seat towers (front or
rear), you can also change the seat base angle. If your Jazzy
is equipped with a power elevating seat, then you change
the seat height through the controller or a switch.
To change the seat height or seat angle:
1. Remove the ball detent pin from each of the four seat
towers.
2. Raise or lower each seat tower to the desired position.
To change the angle, set either the front or rear seat
towers higher or lower than the other.
. Reinstall the ball detent pin into each seat tower.
Seat Position
You can move the seat forward or rearward by changing
the extrusion mounting position.
To change the position:
1. Remove the seat.
2. Remove both extrusions from the bottom of the seat. See figure 12.
. Reposition the extrusions on a different set of mounting holes. See figure 15. You must move both extrusions the same
