STORAGE
Your power chair should be stored in a dry place, free from temperature extremes. When storing, discon-
nect the batteries from the Jazzy. See V. Batteries and Charging.
WARNING! If you fail to store the unit properly, the frame can rust and the electronics can be
damaged.
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Never hose off your Jazzy or place it in direct contact with water. Your Jazzy has a
painted, ABS plastic body shroud that allows it to be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth.
WARNING! Never use any chemicals to clean a vinyl seat, as they may cause the seat to become
slippery or dry out and crack. Use soapy water and dry the seat thoroughly.
TIRE/WHEEL REPLACEMENT
If you have pneumatic tires and you have a flat tire, replace the tube. If your chair is equipped with a solid
tire insert, then you must replace the whole wheel assembly. Replacement tires, tubes, and wheel assem-
blies are readily available through your authorized Pride Provider.
